摘要:呼啸山庄是爱的古典小说,也是英国文学中最伟大的小说之一。女人需要自由的性格,艾米莉是有自我追求的女性。近代以来,妇女在社会中演绎着越来越重要的角色。
rce of little visible delight , but necessary . (Emily, 2004 : 96-97)
Catherine felt that she shared her soul with Heathcliff , so marrying Edgar seemed to betray her soul . She thought all the time that Heathcliff was more herself than she was . Nobody could give Catherine love that she needed except Heathcliff . When he left her twice , she was seriously ill twice . When he returned twice , she was mad with joy twice . When she was dying , she wanted to meet Heathcliff and pled with him to forgive her . Finally , she devoted the whole heart to her real beloved Heathcliff and also devoted herself to the primitive love .
Comparsionly , Cathy’s love was civilized and tender . When she fell in love with Linton , she tried her best to keep him company , told him stories and jokes to relieve his loneliness . At the same time , she looked downed on her cousin Hareton . In her eyes , Hareton was a boor , whereas Linton was her real beloved . But she didn’t go into the extreme . Gradually , Cathy realized Linton’s ruffianism and wanted to break up with him . But it was too late , she was forced to marry the dying Linton under Heathcliff’s intrigue . Though there was no love between Cathy and Linton after their marriage , Cathy still took care of him carefully when he was seriously ill . She suffered not only physically but also mentally . Fortunately , Linton’s death changed her bad situation . In that situation , if Cathy wanted to get the happiness , she would have diverted her emotion to others . When she saw that Hareton was trying to approach to civilization and culture , she was eagar to get Hareton’s company and talk with him . She realized that the reason why he was unwilling to talk to her was that she laughed at him before . “ She was sorry for his persevering sulkiness and indolence — her conscience reproved her for frightening him off improving himself .” (Emily, 2004: 363) Facing this situtation , she didn’t give up and continued to make an effort to approach him . She said to Hareton that she would like to accept him as her cousin if he “ had not grown so cross” to her , “and so rough” . (Emily, 2004: 364) Finally , she found out her happiness and returned Thrushcross Grange with Hareton .
In my opinion , her progress was very obvious . At the beginning , Cathy’s mind was very narrow . She lived in the upper class , and she had no common language with Hareton ,
let alone accepting him as her cousin . If she wanted to
find her happiness , she must abandon her psychological barrier and accept Hareton to join her society . All that she did showed that she had the better education and the higher equality . She could face her lover calmly and deverted her attention from one person to another . Unlike her mother’s primitive love , her love is civilized , tender , rational . For the current society , she was an exception who had the self-consciousness of the women and self-pursuit of happiness . Therefore , Cathy is the representative of civilized love .
Chapter Ⅲ Love vs. Hate 爱与恨
According to the philosophy , if irrational and primitive love is hampered , it will be turned into hate . Rational and civilized love is unlikely to be turned into hate . On the contrary , it can eliminate hate .
When Heathcliff was young , he had original kindness and purity just like other children .
