【正文】 both withered away to bee less of what they once were. Heathcliff is the very spirit of Wuthering Heights. Healthcliff is a symbol of Wuthering Heights, the cold, dark, and dismal dwelling. “The authors use of parallel personifications to depict specific parts of the house as analogous to Heathcliff?s face reveal stunning insights into his character.”7 Emily Bronte describes Wuthering Heights having “narrow windows deeply set in the wall, and the corners defended with large jutting stones.”8 This description using the characteristics of Wuthering Heights is adjacent to Heathcliff when he is illustrated having, “black eyes withdrawn so suspiciously under their brow.”9 Heathcliff lived in a primal identification with nature, from the rocks, stones, trees, the heavy skies and eclipsed sun, which environs him. There is no true separation from the setting of nature for Heathcliff and the lives with which his life is bound. Thrushcross Grange, in contrast to the bleak exposed farmhouse on the heights, is situated in the valley with none of the grim features of Heathcliff?s home. Opposite of Wuthering Heights, Thrushcross Grange is filled with light and warmth. “Unlike Wuthering Heights, it is elegant and fortable?a splendid place carpeted with crimson, and crimson covered chairs and tables, and a pure white ceiling bordered by gold?.”10 Thrushcross Grange is the appropriate home of the children of the calm. The atmosphere of Thrushcross Grange illustrates the link the inhabitants have with the upperclass Victorian lifestyle. Although the Linton?s appearance was often shallow, appearances were kept up for their friends and their social standing. While Wuthering Heights was always full of activity, sometimes to the point of chaos, life at the Grange always seemed placid. Linton?s existence here at Thrushcross Grange was as “different from Heathcliff?s ?as moonbeam from lightning, or frost from fire?.”11The Linton?s often portrayed themselves as shallow, arrogant people, but life here was much more jovial than the inmates of Wuthering Heights lives were. Catherine Earnshaw, also a child of the storm, ties these two worlds of storm and calm together. Despite the fact that she occupies a position midway between the two worlds, Catherine is a product of the moors. She belongs in a sense to both worlds and is constantly drawn first in Heathcliff?s direction, then in Linton?s. Catherine does not ?like? Heathcliff, but she loves him with all the strength of her being. For he, like her, is a child of the storm。 and this makes a bond between them, which interweaves itself with the very nature of their existence. In a sublime passage she tells Nelly Dean that she loves him “not because he?s handsome, Nelly, but because he?s more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same, and Linton?s is as different as a moonbeam from lightning, or frost from fire. . . . My great miseries in this world have been Heathcliff?s miseries, and I watched and felt each from the beginning: my great thought in living is himself. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be。 and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger: I should not seem a part of it. My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I?m well aware as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly, I am Heathcliff! He?s always, always in my mind。 not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being.”12 Despite the fact she loves only Heathcliff, she marries Edgar Linton. Catherine realizes that even though her love or lack of love for Edgar is questionable, she feels that someday she will learn how to love him. “Catherine sees that, whatever his faults, Heathcliff transcends the Lintons? world.”13 “Catherine?s account of Heathcliff may appear on the surface to be scarcely more favorable than Linton?s。 but it is certain that she understands him in a way that Linton never could.”14 The bond between Heathcliff and Catherine was formed long ago during their childhood at Wuthering Heights. The setting throughout the novel often corresponded with the characters emotions. It is best symbolized “in a passage about nature?s obviousness to Heathcliff?s grief over Cathy?s death. A symbol for tears lurks in the image of ?the dew that had gathered on the budded branches, and fell pattering round him?.”15 Even though Heathcliff was a hardened person, Catherine?s death truly devastated him. Heathcliff?s emotions also corresponded with nature when he disappears into a raging storm after hearing Catherine say that it would degrade her to marry Heathcliff. Emily Bronte gives a brief description of Catherine?s actions after it is brought to her attention that Heathcliff heard what she said. Catherine, going out to the road in search of him, ?where heedless of my expostulations, and the growling thunder, and the great drops that began to plash round her, she remained calling, at intervals, and then listening, and then crying outright.”16 This description symbolizes the relationship and the internal bond that the characters of Wuthering Heights had with nature. It is Bronte?s remarkable imagination, emotional power, figures of speech, and handling of dialect that makes the characters of Wuthering Heights relate so closely with their surroundings. Emily Bronte?s style of writing is capable of drawing you into the novel because of her ability to make inanimate objects bee the characters of the story. The contrast of these two houses adds much to the meaning of this novel, and without it, the story wouldn?t be the interesting, plex novel it is without the contrast between Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange. The contrast b
