Abstract

Emily Bronte, the 19th-century British writer, occupies an important and unique position in British literary history and though she only had one novel---Wuthering Heights, she was still one of the most influential writers in the world literature. The paper will analyze the gothic style in Wuthering Heights mainly from four aspects, including the theme selection, characterization, depiction of the environment and the use of supernatural factors.
