具体描述
'I am Heathcliff - he's always, always in my mind ...' Discovered on the streets of Liverpool, Heathcliff is rescued by Mr Earnshaw and taken to the remote Yorkshire farmhouse of Wuthering Heights. Earnshaw's daughter Catherine rapidly forms a passionate attachment to him, but when Catherine's brother takes over the Heights, Heathcliff is lowered to the position of a barely-tolerated farmhand. When Catherine decides to marry the refined Edgar Linton instead, Heathcliff turns revenger. He determines to degrade not only those who sought to degrade him, but their children after them. Wuthering Heights is one of the most famous love stories in the English language. It is also, as the Introduction to this edition explores, one of the most potent revenge narratives. Its ingenious narrative structure, vivid evocation of landscape, and the extraordinary power of its depiction of love and hatred have given it a unique place in English literature. This edition reproduces the authoritative Clarendon text, with revised and expanded notes and a selection from the poems of Emily Bronte. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

2010.7.28 A strange thing happened when I was reading this book. Obviously, the writing itself was powerful and the book, a page turner. But as I was reading it, I never thought of those characters to be real. Neither could I relate to them, nor did I a...
《外国文学史》上是把勃朗特这两姐妹一起介绍的,其中重点介绍的作品自然是《简爱》与《呼啸山庄》。我拜读这两本大作的时间相差甚远,但我还清楚的记得看书时的分别感觉。看简爱时只觉得平淡,肤浅如我向来爱的是基督山伯爵这类情节背景广阔跌宕起伏的小说(我后来一回想,...
尼采在悲剧的诞生一文里列举了两种艺术类型:日神式的和酒神式的。 日神额冠博带,面孔端庄,体相雍容,阿波罗的生活是标准的贵族生活,一种均衡的,不剧烈的,完满的生活。一种清醒,理智,有风骨的生活。日神式的艺术也是古典主义的标准艺术,一种宫殿气息的艺术...
