=//Wuthering Heights// (1847) = ===by Emily Brontë ===

===The unmarried daughter of a clergyman, Emily Brontë published her only novel, //Wuthering Heights//, at the end of the Romantic Era and beginning of the Victorian. Linking the passionate affair of Catherine and Heathcliff with the wild, windswept moors of Yorkshire, the novel remains one of the classic--if misunderstood--love stories. Told in flashback by the housekeeper, Nelly Dean, to the traveler, Mr. Lockwood, the visitor to the house is as much an outsider to this fiery world as the reader. ===

=== While most essays examine the novel’s main relationship, this wiki explores the auxiliary details of the book, including dreams, names and identity, repression, gender roles, illness and death, ballads and folklore, eating and drinking, masters verus servants, and religion. For college and graduate students looking for scholarly information on //Wuthering Heights// beyond the customary themes and symbols, this wiki will serve as a starting point. ===
