《呼啸山庄》英文读后感 1
Published in 1847, WUTHERING HEIGHTS was not well received by the reading public, many of whom condemned it as sordid, vulgar, and unnatural--and author Emily Bronte went to her grave in 1848 believing that her only novel was a failure. It was not until 1850, when WUTHERING HEIGHTS received a second printing with an introduction by Emily's sister Charlotte, that it attracted a wide readership. And from that point the reputation of the book has never looked back. Today it is widely recognized as one of the great novels of English literature.
Even so, WUTHERING HEIGHTS continues to pide readers. It is not a pretty love story; rather, it is swirling tale of largely unlikeable people caught up in obsessive love that turns to dark madness. It is cruel, violent, dark and brooding, and many people find it extremely unpleasant. And yet--it possesses a grandeur of language and design, a sense of tremendous pity and great loss that sets it apart from virtually every other novel written.
The novel is told in the form of an extended flashback. After a visit to his strange landlord, a newcomer to the area desires to know the history of the family--which he receives from Nelly Deans, a servant who introduces us to the Earnshaw family who once resided in the house known as Wuthering Heights. It was once a cheerful place, but Old Earnshaw adopted a "Gipsy" child who he named Heathcliff. And Catherine, daughter of the house, found in him the perfect companion: wild, rude, and as proud and cruel as she. But although Catherine loves him, even recognizes him as her soulmate, she cannot lower herself to marry so far below her social station. She instead marries another, and in so doing sets in motion an obsession that will destroy them all.
WUTHERING HEIGHTS is a bit difficult to "get into;" the opening chapters are so dark in their portrait of the end result of this obsessive love that they are somewhat off-putting. But they feed into the flow of the work in a remarkable way, setting the stage for one of the most remarkable structures in all of literature, a story that circles upon itself in a series of repetitions as it plays out across two generations. Catherine and Heathcliff are equally remarkable, both vicious and cruel, and yet never able to shed their impossible love no matter how brutally one may wound the other.
As the novel coils further into alcoholism, seduction, and one of the most elaborately imagined plans of revenge it gathers into a ghostly tone: Heathcliff, driven to madness by a woman who is not there but who seems reflected in every part of his world--dragging her corpse from the grave, hearing her calling to him from the moors, escalating his brutality not for the sake of brutality but so that her memory will never fade, so that she may never leave his mind until death itself. Yes, this is madness, insanity, and there is no peace this side of the grave or even beyond.
It is a stunning novel, frightening, inexorable, unsettling, filled with unbridled passion that makes one cringe. Even if you do not like it, you should read it at least once--and those who do like it will return to it again and again

《呼啸山庄》英文读后感 4
The ink - scented Wuthering heights soon finished. Look at it lying quietly in front of me, unexpectedly want to stop. Rereading, but it is full of regret to close the book, no matter how many times I read again, but also regret to close the book, very anxious to pave the way for the hero a perfect happiness.
Heathcliff and Catherine 's love begins in the plain and ends in madness. But, at the end of the song, stand aside the curtain call only Heathcliff one. When the stage shows the end of the play, Heathcliff closed his eyes in the atmosphere of Catherine, and a pair of small Catherine and Heathcliff sweet love again.
Perhaps, only in the storm of love is intense enough, is really unforgettable, but the sweetness of the plain and mixed with light sadness and hesitation? Identity disparity, the host 's obstruction, Heathcliff is difficult to love with their own people to live a free and free life. If it weren 't for change, if it weren 't for love, if it weren 't for the power of hatred, Heathcliff how can grow so powerful?
May be god 's making people, let the lovers in love separated by misunderstanding, but in the approximate crazy love and hate hard to find each other 's traces of love. Heathcliff used his selfish love to destroy Catherine, his beloved stunts, and the traces of love he desperately wanted to find, and the hatred and conviction he built with love. He wanted to revenge Catherine, but when Catherine 's body gradually cold, in his heart, is rather she woke up in pain. He suddenly look back, the lover has been quietly away, although knowing that life can 't be together, because she is someone else 's wife, but far better than every other day. When alive, like a hedgehog erected the whole body of thorns want to hurt each other, but in the moment of heaven and earth forever choose to forgive. For the dying, death is a kind of how much relief, dead, all the love and misunderstanding does not exist. But she ever thought, death is each other 's biggest selfish. And he, after she died, there is no stubborn resistance, can only be lonely taste the taste of acacia, but never touch their loved ones.
This love ah, who made a mistake, when all the barriers are dim, and can 't believe that this is the end of true love. Love is like the wind, into the bottom of my heart; Hate is like a sudden rain, shattered the dream. Love, don 't care who is wrong, who is wrong, everything, like the arrangement of god. Strong resistance can 't shake the established fact again, time is the best mixture, can gradually calm people 's inner sadness, heal the wound, but never disappear in the heart of the scar, at the right time, it will slowly crack, give a person with a thorough pain.
But, this is all hurt by love. Although injured, Heathcliff still can 't put down the love of Catherine, perhaps this is the love of ecstasy, only true love can do so. Some people say that the injury to love is sweet and unforgettable, perhaps this is Heathcliff constantly thinking about Catherine, looking for Catherine, deeply tortured by it but always refused to let go.
In the roar, love and hate interweave, but, tightly pull refused to let go.

《呼啸山庄》英文读后感 6
I read Wuthering heights twice, for the first time like reading other books caocao, swallow jujube, fog in the cloud, don 't understand its meaning. The second time had to helplessly read again, in a word, carefully, this just read the taste. Here, I have to admit that Emily Bronte is indeed a genius writer, her talent is no less than any famous or unknown writer since literature. Although Emily only spent 30 short spring and autumn in this world, but this is unusual. She had never stepped out of the town where she was born, but her sky was wider and deeper than anyone else. As one of the famous Bronte sisters, she deserves the name. Her poems are vast blue, give a person with courage and strength, the only novel " Wuthering heights" is pure white, quiet and peaceful, and will generate out of different passion - emotion, to fanaticism and agitation, as if the extreme white, but both colors are so clean and pure.
The love in Wuthering heights is so special that it is different from the love created in any novel so far. This " Emily" type of love is so sincere, frank, never half of the wriggle and feminine affections. Only such feelings, is really from the heart of the people, is from the human nature. Interwoven in all of this, is so naked, no half of the prison, also never thought of the prison. This is the world 's most real erotic portrayal, Emily never put it on the so-called " literary coat". Emily shaped the protagonists, love is so strong, beyond everything, even the distance between life and death. The depth of love, the pain. Skriv' s hatred is so strong, real and powerful. This desire for revenge, strong enough to destroy everything around him. The fire of vengeance burned the feud between the two families. When Catherine died, he was so miserable. Catherine took his love and everything. Although he is still alive, but and death. He even got so much, but still not enough to fill his loss, the trauma of his heart. Because Catherine is dead, his life is meaningless. When he calls his lover day and night like a ghost, he is no longer available. He tormented others, also all the time not to hurt his body. His revenge, he got so many people 's property, but he lost the last pillar to support their survival, so, at this moment, he died.
In Skriv and the hero of this generation, love is always stronger than hate, emotion always above and reason, so they are easy to crazy, but let a person respect. Their next generation - that kind of reason than emotional love, compared to them, is how pale, much less. Emily 's advanced writing techniques, coupled with this wonderful literary thinking, no wonder people will be the unique book as " the only outstanding work is not covered by the dust of time".
《呼啸山庄》英文读后感 7
After all this term’s learning on English literature ,Wuthering height may be the most impressive novel to me . So I will discuss something special in this book ,the gothic setting.
What is gothic setting ?
Gothic setting is one of the fiction genres which first begin at the middle of 19 century in England . Sa一vage ,mystery ,terror ,backward ,dark ,family curse ,supernatural and suspense are the signal features of this kind of fiction genre . It mainly talks something about the dark side of society such as family hatred and succession race . The story in this style usually happens in remote place that far away from city .
What do we know about gothic setting in Wuthering heights ?
In fact ,what impresses me most in this novel is the description of the environment . It is full of gothic setting . We can find that there is no sunshine in Wuthering heights all the year around ,the haze and atmosphere there make people feel mystery and depressive . The weather is always changing according to the plot . When there is something badly happen ,the environment will be influenced . For example, rain comes at once after Catherine’s betray . When it comes to Catherine’s death ,it changes quickly and suddenly to hea一vy rain and strong wind . All in all ,I think all this gothic setting is to show the feeling of writer .
The gothic setting in the book not only shows us the mystery of the environment ,but also tells us the society stage and the different life style between different classes in that period . To Catherine ,Heathcriff who belongs to the lower class represents spiritual love while Linton in the upper class represents material . She is in a dilemma to make a decision . On one hand ,all of us know Catherine loves Heathcriff deeply . On the other hand ,Linton can give her the life she expects ,a rich and comfortable life and be respected by people . Material wins in the end .
What do we learn from this novel ?
True love or material ,this is a question . In the novel ,Catherine sacrifice her love to pursue a comfortable live . Actually material is usually the first choice I think when most of the women come to this decision . This was one of the hotest topic at 20xx after a women said on TV she would rather to cry in a BMW than to laugh on a bicycle . What she said liked a big stone thrown into a peaceful lake . Can money really replace love ? A lot of people argue on this question whether it is worthy of sacrificing on the Internet .
As far as I’am concerned ,nothing can take the place of our love . Though material is necessary ,too much money can not make people happier . It is ordinary for us to persue a better life . But do we really ha一ve to sacrifice our love ? Why can’t we make our life comfortable through our hands or with our lover . Maybe we will come to some trouble . But all these obstacles are just to make us stronger . Though the process is difficult ,it maybe the most precious memory and our treasures after overcoming all this difficulties .

《呼啸山庄》英文读后感 9
After reading the masterpiece, Wuthering Heights, gave me a kind of depression and made me unable to understand what is love on earth. Everyone who read it would be touched and moved.
According to his novel we can get conclusion that In material desires dominate society. Money is everything. There are no love friendship and relationship between people.
This novel also reflected that what kind of social background the author suffered.Anyways, Wuthering Heights gave me a torment, you can’t see any warm scene in the book, all you see is the fierce wind howled, and wild moor. However, at the end, the combination between Hareton and Cathy seems a hopeful light in the darkness, and the break of the day finally coming!
Many times in life, people leave our lives and then come back into them. However, we remember them, but they do not remember us. The same thing happened in Emily Bront's book Wuthering Heights. Linton, taken by his mother to London after his birth, never knew his father, then when things happened, he came back home. He had family fighting over where he was to live and whom he would be around. Not knowing part of your family until after you are fifteen is hard.
Isabella took her son, after he was born, and moved to London away from Thrushcross Grange. At the same time, she moved away from her husband, Heathcliff. During the time that Isabella and Linton were gone, Isabella got sick and passed away. Right before her death, a letter came saying that she was dying so Hindley went to visit her. While he was there, she did passed on so he brought Linton back with him. Once back, everyone looked after him and made him feel at home.
Heathcliff soon came to the knowledge that his son had returned to Wuthering Heights. He then sent someone to Wuthering Heights to get Linton. However, he did not know that Linton was already asleep so he did not get the boy that night. The next day the boy was taken to Heathcliff at Thrushcross Grange. The father and son were nothing alike, and Linton was intimidated by his father. He did stay, and meet some of his relatives that he had never seen, who helped him adjust to living there.
Everyday in our lives we run into situations that we wish we had never been involved with. I relate to the characters of Linton and Heathcliff. I am like Linton because people know who I am, but I never remember meeting them, and am scared around them. I also feel the same as Hindly might have of. This is because I would want to see the person I did not know, but then I would not know how to cat around them. In time people come around, but others, as with Heathcliff and Linton, never come around. Everyday life is something we take for granted. No matter how you feel, you may never come to understand it, till you find someone else in the same situation. The above described situation only gives one instance of the many situations in Emily Bront's book, Wuthering Heights, were you could relate your life to someone else Wuthering Heights 's. This book gives the true facts about what family life is really like. Anyway,it's worth reading .
