In this video symbols that are used by Emily Brontë to help her tell her story in the novel Wuthering Heights are examined. Brontë uses recurring images to help us understand her characters better and to provide social comments about the time in whi...ch she lived and wrote. The significance of windows and eyes, doors and locks, books and education, death and, finally, sickness are examined. The most important issue to consider is that of boundaries. This normally suggests some sort of change, whether this is of circumstances or a personal change within a particular character. It could be crossing the boundary between life and death, between inside
and outside, or between nature and culture. Each crossed threshold or
change affects those characters that make the change as well as those around them.

This video lookis at the themes that Emily Brontë
has used within her novel Wuthering Heights. Many of the themes reflect on the time in which the novel was written and the experiences of the author. It is important that you understand the backgroun...d to the novel in order to fully connect with its themes. The video looks closely at the themes of love, social class, the conflict between culture and nature, revenge and cruelty. These themes are strongly linked to the setting of Wuthering Heights and Emily Brontë uses recurring images, including that of the two houses, to help us identify with the themes in particular moments in the novel. Brontë cleverly interweaves these themes to provide a layered text that can be read from different points of view.

This video examines the context of Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. Wuthering Heights is a tale of passion, a tale of
extremes. Published in 1847, a year before Brontë's death, it was not
received well by the critics of the time, yet today we se...e it as one of
the great Romantic classics. When reading Wuthering Heights we need to remember that because of its narrative structure, we have to constantly ask questions of the characters and their motives. Keywords are explained; opposition, melodrama, tension and conflict, values, Victorian life, and setting (partial clip). British female voice and a few words on screen. (1:42)
