  7. Linking to the Gothic • Individually, identify possible gothic elements in the setting: • Excess • Entrapment • Isolation • Horror • Decay and death • Hellish or demonic • Supernatural • Oppositions Settings are a significant part of Gothic literature. How far do you agree in light of Bronte’s use of setting in Wuthering Heights?

  8. Gothic Atmospheres • The frequent storms and wind that sweep through Wuthering Heights symbolize how the characters are at the mercy of forces they cannot control. For example, Lockwood, the city boy, thinks he can walk back to Thrushcross Grange through a storm, but the nature-respecting folks at Wuthering Heights tell him he's crazy; they know that the weather—nature—is far stronger than he is. Brontë uses the weather as a metaphor for nature, which she portrays as a magnificently strong force that can conquer any character. The strongest characters are those who give the weather the respect it deserves. Find 3-4 examples from Volume 1 where the use of weather, the elements and pathetic fallacy are used in an interesting way.

  9. Review: • Add your own key quotations to your booklets.
