Abstract

Although many literary critics have tried to prove that there is only one Brontë and that is Emily Brontë, who was a genius among the other two sisters, many readers are of the opinion that the three sisters, Emily, Charlotte, and Anne have written novels of the same type but with varying success. This assumption is natural and reasonable, because life gave them the same inclination to write, while they, as sisters, were closely related to each other at home and in the family. For the student and the critic, the case of these three sisters is challenging, because life seldom gives the same tendency to the three who were of the same blood and of the same generation, and who wrote novels of the same form, but relying in three different experiences (Long, 514-515). The novel "Wuthering Heights" is a kind of tragedy in the framework of realism, a work which, through concretely and convincingly presented characters of a place and time, speaks about the all-human and eternal theme: about the conflict of the free energy of the human being with conventions and codes and material interests that prevent it. The composition of this novel is its best artistic feature. To write the novel, Emily starts from the end of the events. Looking back, she unfolds the events first through the testimony of the witnesses and then through the narrator. Thus, none of the narrators is a tool of the novel's technique, but they give the impression that they are living people with different qualities and characters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
