In this epic story of love, envy, betrayal and revenge, Heathcliff and Catherine come together in a romance that destroys them and those around them. Set in the lonely and bleak Yorkshire moors, this classic tale of thwarted passion begins when the new tenant of Thrushcross Grange, a Mr Lockwood, is forced to seek shelter for a night at Wuthering Heights. As the night passes, Lockwood learns of the tumultuous past of Wuthering Heights and of those connected with it.
Critical Editions is a series intended to bring literary texts closer to students, of both postgraduate and undergraduate levels. Each edition not only explores the structure and texture of the text chosen but also places it in its literary and cultural context. The complete and unabridged text of the work follows. Annotations and glosses are provided wherever it is felt that students need help in order to understand the original. It is hoped that students will move from these editions to standard works of reference in order to widen their understanding of the genre, the period and the writer. The edition closes with representative critical essays, a set of topics that can be used for classroom discussion or as guidelines for analysis, and a select bibliography of critical sources.
