呼啸山庄英文读后感 篇一
After finishing the novel "Wuthering Heights," I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. The story, written by Emily Bronte, took me on a rollercoaster ride of intense love, revenge, and tragedy. The characters and their complex relationships left a lasting impact on me.
One of the aspects that struck me the most was the portrayal of love in the novel. The love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff is both passionate and destructive. Their intense connection transcends societal norms and expectations, but it also leads to their downfall and the destruction of those around them. This portrayal of love as a force that can both elevate and destroy is both captivating and haunting.
The setting of the novel, the moors of Yorkshire, also plays a significant role in creating the atmosphere of the story. The harsh and wild landscape mirrors the turbulent emotions of the characters. It adds an element of darkness and mystery to the narrative, making it even more compelling.
Another aspect that stood out to me was the theme of revenge. Heathcliff's relentless pursuit of vengeance consumes him and drives the narrative forward. His actions are fueled by his deep love for Catherine and the pain he feels from her betrayal. However, his quest for revenge ultimately leads to his own misery and the suffering of those around him. This exploration of the destructive nature of revenge left me contemplating the consequences of holding onto grudges and seeking retribution.
Furthermore, the characters in "Wuthering Heights" are incredibly complex and flawed. Each character is driven by their own desires, motivations, and demons. From the tormented Heathcliff to the conflicted Catherine, their actions and choices are often driven by their deep-rooted flaws and past traumas. This complexity adds depth to the story and makes the characters more relatable and human.
Overall, "Wuthering Heights" is a novel that delves into the depths of human emotions and the complexities of love, revenge, and tragedy. It is a haunting and powerful tale that stays with you long after you've finished reading. Emily Bronte's masterful storytelling and vivid portrayal of characters and their relationships make it a timeless classic.
呼啸山庄英文读后感 篇二
Upon completing Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights," I was left in awe of the dark and Gothic atmosphere that permeates the entire novel. The complex and intricate plot, combined with the memorable characters, made for an unforgettable reading experience.
One of the aspects that stood out to me was the narrative structure of the novel. It is told through a series of nested narratives, where characters recount their experiences to the housekeeper Nelly Dean. This multi-layered storytelling adds depth and complexity to the plot, allowing the reader to gain different perspectives on the events unfolding at Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange. It also adds an element of mystery and suspense, as the truth is gradually unraveled.
The theme of social class is also prevalent throughout the novel. The stark contrast between the working-class characters like Heathcliff and the wealthy Linton family highlights the divide between the upper and lower classes in Victorian society. This divide not only shapes the characters' interactions but also influences their choices and actions. The exploration of social class adds a layer of social commentary to the novel, shedding light on the inequalities and prejudices of the time.
Furthermore, the character of Heathcliff is one of the most complex and intriguing literary figures I have encountered. His dark and brooding nature, as well as his passionate and vengeful spirit, make him a captivating protagonist. His journey from an abused orphan to a wealthy and powerful figure is filled with heartbreak and tragedy. Despite his questionable actions, Heathcliff evokes a sense of empathy and understanding from the reader, making him a truly unforgettable character.
Lastly, the novel's exploration of love and its destructive power left a lasting impact on me. The tortured love between Catherine and Heathcliff is both passionate and toxic. Their intense connection drives the plot forward and sets in motion a series of events that lead to tragedy and despair. This portrayal of love as a force that can both elevate and destroy is both haunting and thought-provoking.
In conclusion, "Wuthering Heights" is a masterpiece that delves into the depths of human emotions and explores themes of love, social class, and revenge. Emily Bronte's vivid descriptions and complex characters make for a compelling and unforgettable reading experience. This novel will continue to captivate readers for generations to come.
呼啸山庄英文读后感 篇三
Thoughts or reflections on reading Wuthering Heights
The book was written by Emily Bronte, it published in 1847。But at that time, it seemed to hold little promise, selling very poorly and receiving only a few mixed reviews。 I found this in our school library, I chose this book because the title attracted me。 The book is structured around two parallel love stories, the first half of the novel centering on the love between Catherine and Heathcliff, while the less dramatic second half features the developing love between young Catherine and Hareton。 In contrast to the first, the latter tale ends happily, restoring peace and order to Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange。 In the story, the two houses, Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, represent opposing worlds and values。
I spent twenty days reading this book。 After reading this book, I felt for Heathcliff at first。 Heathcliff begins his life as a homeless orphan on the streets of Liverpool, and then he tyrannized by Hindley Earnshaw。 But he bees a villain when he acquires power and returns to Wuthering Heights with money and the trappings of a gentleman。 His malevolence proves so great and long—lasting。 As he himself points out, his abuse of Isabella—his wife is purely sadistic, as he amuses himself by seeing how much abuse she can take and still e cringing back for more。
Catherine represents wild nature, in both her high, lively spirits and her occasional cruelty。 She loves Heathcliff so intensely that she claims they are the same person。 However, her actions are driven in part by her social ambitions, which initially are awakened during her first stay at the Lintons, and which eventually pel her to marry Edgar。 Catherine is free—spirited, beautiful, spoiled, and often arrogant, she is given to fits of temper, and she is torn between her both of the men who love her。 The location of her coffin symbolizes the conflict that tears apart her short life。 She is buried in a corner of the Kirkyard。 In contrast to Catherine, Isabella Linton—Catherine’s sister—in—law represents culture and civilization, both in her refinement and in her weakness。 Ultimately, she ruins her life by falling in love with Heathcliff。 He never returns her feelings and treats her as a meretool in his quest for revenge on the Linton family。
Just as Isabella Linton serves as Catherine’s foil, Edgar Linton serves as Heathcliff’s。 Edgar grows into a tender, constant, but cowardly man。 He is almost the ideal gentleman。 However, this full assortment of gentlemanly characteristics, along with his civilized virtues, proves useless in Edgar’s clashes with his foil。 He sees his wife obviously in love with another man but unable to do anything to rectify the situation。 Heathcliff, who gains power over his wife, sister , and daughter。
The whole story make people’s mood heavy。 Fortunately, the end is happy。
The author Emily Bronte lived an eccentric, closely guarded life。 She was born in 1818, two years after Charlotte—the author of Jane Eyre and a year and a half before her sister Anne, who also became an author。 Her father worked as a church rector, and her aunt, who raised the Bronte children after their mother died, was deeply religious。 Emily Bronte did not take to her aunt’s Christian fervor, the character of Joseph, a caricature of an evangelical, may have been inspired by her aunt’s religiosity。 The Brontes lived in Haworth, a Yorkshire village in the midst of the moors。 These wild, desolate expanses—later the setting of Wuthering Heights—made up the Brontes daily environment, and Emily lived among them her entire life。 She died in 1848, at the age of thirty。
I like this book because it rest on the unforgettable characters。 Wuthering Heights is based partly on the Gothic tradition, a style of literature that featured supernatural encounters, crumbling ruins, moonless nights, and grotesque imagery, seeking to create effects of mystery and fear。 I would like to remend this book to other readers。

呼啸山庄英文读后感 篇五
Wuthering Heights,the only fiction of Emily Bronte, was published in 1847。 It is a story about love and revenge。 After finishing the novel, most people including me would appreciate Heathcliff for his pure, simple and untamed love which would never change until death。 On the other hand, it is difficult to understand his abnormal, callous and his love for Catherine。 Heathcliff was an illiberal and unscrupulous person。 He loved Catherine and was willing to give up everything for her。 In the north of England where the wind blew hard, the black and dirty child, Heathcliff, fell in love with a little girl, Catherine who gave him love and also misery。
Wuthering Heights is an ideal heaven for those misanthropists to escape from the real life。 In this beautiful but desolate world, Heathcliff as a stranger appeared。 When he was 6 or 7 years old and at the edge of starving, Mr。 Earnshaw, the owner of wuthering heights, saved him。 Heathcliff’s childhood was unfortunate。 Before he came to the wuthering heights, he was almost dead。 When he was at Mr。 Earnshaw’s home, he was bullied and maltreat by Mr。 Earnshaw’s son, Hindley Earnshaw。 However, at that moment, Catherine Earnshaw saved him, and everything became different。 Catherine was a crazy and wild girl。 The writer described as follows: “Her spirits were always at high-water mark, her tongue always going--singing, laughing, and plaguing everybody who would not do the same。 A wild, wicked slip she was。” However, she was goodness and pretty。 The relationship between them was developing under the lack of civilized education。 Their life was tightly held together, they had to fac
e Hindley。 But their friendship broke when Catherine was 12 years old, when she met Edgar Linton a wealthy and handsome boy from Thrushcross Grange。 Three years later, she agreed to marry Edger。 In Heathcliff’s mind, it was Edgar who bore away his love。 Thus, when he came back to wuthering heights and began his cruel revenge。
Catherine lost her childhood at the time when she started to consider her future。 She totally knew that it was impossible to be together with Heathcliff。 She had to find the future, a wealthy, handsome husband who could give her steady life and reputation while Heathcliff had nothing。 But when she married Edgar, she didn’t feel happy at all。 She remembered that she had betrayed Heathcliff and herself。 Money and house brought her into nothingness。 She began to cherish the memory of Heathcliff, cherished the little boy stood by her。 There was no etiquette and standard but sincerity。 In the wuthering heights, happiness was gone forever。 Because of Hindley, Heathcliff lost the chance to learn and he was almost lost himself。 Fortunately, Catherine did not give up him。 He abandoned himself for his self-abased。 In their love, even at that storming night, Heathcliff left。 They never thought about their future, their life。 Thus, shall we ask that love should be based on what? Catherine loved
Edgar, but she also said to Nelly:” you think me a selfish wretch; but did it never strike you that if Heathcliff and I married, we should be beggars? whereas, if I marry Linton, I can aid Heathcliff to rise, and place him out of my brother's power。” Before the difficulty, she chose to confront。 On the contrary, Heathcliff chose to escape, because he had no courage to overe it。 Catherine was 15 while Heathcliff was 16, they were children。 They didn’t understand what love was。 They just found the happiness they had in mon。
We can suppose that if Heathcliff didn’t leave, and he lived with Catherine, were they happy? Were they at ease? What life did they live? Can they run crazily on the wild land? Catherine looked down upon Heathcliff’s cowardice, once she talked about Heathcliff to Isabella: “Tell her what Heathcliff is: an unreclaimed creature, without refinement, without cultivation: an arid wilderness of furze and whinstone。 But she had never suspected her courage。” She loved Heathcliff undoubtedly, but she was afraid to be with him。 Heathcliff had questioned her:” You teach me now how cruel you've been--cruel and false。 Why did you despise me? Why did you betray your own heart, Catherine?” If they loved each other, why did cheat their heart? Compared with Catherine, is Heathcliff more forgivable for his insistence and self-abased?
In the end, Catherine died。 She was 19, and Heathcliff was 20。 However, the story was not end。 After Catherine’s death, Heathcliff was not likable。 His maniac revenge seemed no endless。 He even took vengeance on their children。 Is this love? Is this resentment? Did Heathcliff love Catherine more or he hate the world more? What did he revenge for? Does for Catherine or him? They tortured each other, but they still loved each other。 We can not find out the answer。 But we can know that at last, they finally stayed with each other and no one can take them apart。 “And if she had been dissolved into earth, or worse, what would you have dreamt of then?' I said。 ——Of dissolving with her, and being more happy still!' he answered。” No matter how much misunderstanding, regret and pain they received before, now they rest in peace。 Just like Catherine said:” Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same”。
When I finished reading this book and begin to chew the profound meaning and the essence in this book, I find that I have learned a lot of life truth。 For my part, love is to learn tolerance。 If you really fall in love with someone, you will understand if she or he can get happiness and have ever loved you, that is enough。 Reading a classic is a really tired and joyful thing。 When I am moved by the figure’s emotion, I will feel sad and also gain enlightenment。 In addition, which moves me most is that it teaches me to keep the dignity of life and the heart of freedom。 No matter how austere the challenge we meet, we should yearn for freedom。
呼啸山庄英文读后感 篇六
《呼啸山庄》读后感
《呼啸山庄》是一部写得很好的感情杯具。读完整个故事,我想谈谈故事的主人公——凯瑟琳和希斯克利夫。凯瑟琳和希斯克利夫十分相爱,但他们没有采取正确的态度对待感情,从而导致杯具。
在凯瑟琳的生命中,她作了一个十分愚蠢的决定——和埃德加结婚。事实上,她给埃德加的爱永远不可能与给希斯克利夫的相比。她这样做,是因为她认为埃德加的财富会对希斯克利夫有用。但实际上,它没有用。她不懂得感情,感情是圣洁的。如果有人给感情添加任何目的,感情本身就失去了意义。凯瑟琳的错误决定伤害了两个爱她的人,甚至破坏了他们的后代的幸福。
希斯克利夫是一个充满复仇心的男人。他十分爱凯瑟琳,但他的所作所为恰恰相反地增加了凯瑟琳的痛苦。在我看来,如果他真的爱凯瑟琳,他不应当在他消失之后再次走进凯瑟琳的生活。此外,凯瑟琳死后,希斯克利夫给凯瑟琳的女儿以及他自我的儿子带来了极度的痛苦,。
读后,我对爱有了一个更好的理解。如果你真的爱某人,他或她的幸福绝对经得住所有困难的考验。
My Feelings after reading Wuthering Heights
Wuthering Heights is a well-written tragedy of love。 After reading the whole story, I would like to talk about the main characters of the story—Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff。 Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff love each other very much, but they do not have the right attitude towards love, which leads to the tragedy。
In Catherine’s life, she made a very foolish decision---marrying to Edgar。 In fact, her love for Edgar can never be pared to that for Heathcliff。 She did so, because she thought the wealth of Edgar would be useful to Heathcliff。 But in reality, it did not work。 She did not have a good understanding of love, which is something pure and saint。 If anyone add any purpose into love, love itself lost its meaning。 Catherine’s wrong decision hurt two people who love her, and even destroyed the happiness of their offspring。
Heathcliff is a man full of retaliation。 He loved Catherine very much, but what he did, on the contrary, added to the misery of Catherine。 In my opinion, if he really loved Catherine, he should not walk into Catherine’s life again after his disappearance。 Further more, after the death of Catherine, what Heathcliff did brought agony to Catherine’s daughter, as well as his own son。
After reading, I have a better understanding of love。 If you love really someone, his or her happiness is the thing that most matters。
