"Class Conflict in Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights" by Dedria Bryfonski explores the intricate dynamics of social class and its impact on personal relationships within the novel. Set in the Yorkshire moors, "Wuthering Heights" tells the tumultuous story of Heathcliff, a brooding orphan raised by the Earnshaw family, and his passionate love for Catherine Earnshaw. Their tormented relationship, marred by class disparity and social conventions, leads to tragedy and revenge that spans generations. Brontë's portrayal of class conflict reveals deep emotional and social themes that challenge the rigid hierarchies of her time, making the novel a profound exploration of love, hatred, and social struggle.
