《呼啸山庄》中希斯克利夫人物形象论文

浅析《呼啸山庄》中希斯克利夫的人物形象1、相关定义1.1、”次要人物”概念界定主要人物”相对的一个概念。

”主要人物” 是小说中的主人公,即在小说故事和人物结构中占主导地位、受重视程度较高的文学形象,也最大程度地左右情节发展、体现小说主题。

而次要人物在小说中的地位和作用虽次于主要人物,但其往往仍具有独立的美学意义和独特价值。

长期以来,人们一直认为次要人物只是根据主要人物的需要而设置的陪衬, 次要人物决不能与主要人物比肩。

在这种理念影响下,作家往往集中精力刻画主要人物,对于次要人物能省则省,能略则略,因为次要人物塑造得成功与否无关紧要。

老舍就曾经说过:”短篇小说中的人物一定要集中,集中力量写好一两个主要人物,以一当十,其他人物是围绕主人公的配角,适当描画几笔就行了。

” 1而事实上,在许多文学作品中,次要人物不仅与主要人物平分秋色,甚至可以喧宾夺主。

千百年来,文学作品中有多少鲜活的次要人物,体现出不可替代的独特价值。

在”三言”中,这样的次要人物也不胜枚举,如《喻世明言蒋兴哥重会珍珠衫》中的陈商、薛婆;《警世通言宋小官团圆破毡笠》中的刘翁、刘妪。

我们所说的”三言”中的次要人物,还区别于”小人物”,因为”小人物” 指的是处于市井中的身份卑微、等级较低的普通人,而”三言”展现的大部分都是这样的人物。

在”三言”的每一篇中,都不止出现一个次要人物,这些次要人物在小说中的笔墨浓淡、出现次数有差别,因此要对其类别加以区分。

另外还有许多过场人物,有些甚至无名无姓,却对小说情节的连缀、情境氛围的烘托等都有着不可或缺的作用。

还应注意到有些次要人物在整个小说当中属于次要人物, 但在某个相对独立的情节范围内又成了主要人物,这时候该次要人物又跃居到局部主要人物的地位。

本章试图从小说”主要人物”概念出发,再到小说”次要人物”概念,进而具体到”三言”中的”次要人物”概念,逐层进行界定分析,以期对本文所研究的”三言”中的次要人物进行较为明确的界定。

ConclusionⅠ. IntroductionWuthering Heights is the only masterpiece of Emily Bronte as well as a great typical representative of the 19th century. However, it was not well received by the reading public, many of whom condemned it as sordid, vulgar, and unnatural. It was not until 1850, when Wuthering Heights received a second printing, that it attracted a wide readership. Moreover, 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 as well as a unique piece of work conceived in solitude by a genius confined to the lonesome heath, and as almost detached from the literary movements of the time.The great work succeeds in dealing with strong hatred and revenge other than profound love between the hero and heroine, which shock the whole world. Because of fierce feelings, many critics nowadays take Emily Bronte to be the most gifted of the three sisters. Ralph Fox, the revolutionary critic of England highly comments the novel in The Novel and the People:Wuthering Heights is certainly the novel becoming poetry, it isbeyond all doubt one of the most extraordinary books which humangenius has ever produced, yet it is these things only because it is acry of despairing agony wrung from Emily by life itself. The life ofmid-Victorian England, experienced by a girl of passion andimagination imprisoned in the windswept parsonage on the moorsof the West Riding produced this book. Her love must be triumph,and in the violent, horror, laden atmosphere of the stone farmhouseon the moors, it did triumph. Catherine and Heathcliff are therevenge of love against the 19th century.1Although Catherine molded by Emily is a prototype of herself, her protagonist—Heathcliff is much more successfully shown to the readers, with profound love, hate and distortions of human nature. The whole novel just shows the unique love between Heathcliff and Catherine by means of fierce hatred and revenge, and such distortions, which are the same as what Medea in Greek myth did. Heathcliff is partly a product of the alienation of love, just like Medea who was betrayed by love and took revenge on the whole world, including herself. To Heathcliff, such distortions, or alienations have intense expressions, profound reasons, and serious influence.Ⅱ. Expressions of Heathcliff’s DistortionsA.Abuse of Hindley, Hareton, Isabella, Cathy and LintonThroughout Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff’s personality could be defined as dark, menacing, and brooding. He is a dangerous character, with rapidly changing moods, capable of deep-seeded hatred, and incapable, it seems, of any kind of forgiveness of compromise. The novel clearly establishes Heathcliff as an untamed, volatile, wild man and establishes his great love of Catherine and her usage of him as the source of his ill humor and resentment towards many other characters.The story begins with Mr. Lockwood’s first visit to Wuthering Heights:“Wuthering” being a significant provincial adjective, descriptive ofthe atmospheric tumult to which its station is exposed in stormyweather. Pure, bracing ventilation they must have up there, at alltimes, indeed: one may guess the power of the north wind, blowingover the edge, by the excessive slant of a few, stunted firs at the endof the house; and by a range of gaunt thorns all stretching theirlimbs one way, as if craving alms of the sun.2His first impression on Wuthering Heights highly implies indifference, distortions, and all unfortunate experiences. However, the real story has already begun. To Heathcliff, he spares no effort to revenge on everyone to show his dissatisfaction with the world and the lost of love. Leaving aside the reasons for his revenge, let’s go back to the time when he begins all these tragedies.Heathcliff comes back a half year after Catherine’s marriage to Linton, bringing with wealth and hatred. Then, a series of revenge begins. He seeks to destroy those who severed the relationship between himself and Catherine. His role as an avenger is helped by his intelligence and understanding, not just of hisown motivation, but of the motivations of others. He plans every stage carefully to control the whole situation.Firstly, he buys Wuthering Heights from destitute Hindley by cheating and gambling, connivance at Hindley’s alcoholism to torture into death.Meanwhile, he abuses infant Hareton, Hindley’s on ly son. To some extent, it is a kind of abuse of not only physics but also mentality. He never treats him as a kid. Instead, he forces him to do hard work, and teaches him vulgar words and deeds, which he used to experience because of Hindley’s bad treatme nt to him. “Now, my bonny lad, you are mine! And we’ll see if one tree won’t grow as crooked as another, with the same wind to twist it!”3 The distortions of trees echoes the distortions of human being, and w hat he says after Hindley’ death obviously impli es little Hareton’s tragedy. As Heathcliff seeks his revenge, he becomes fiendish and is constantly associated with diabolical feelings, images and actions. The use of the imagery reinforces the inhuman aspect of Heathcliff. When Hareton is growing up, he regrets saving the infant Hareton. Nelly recalled that his face bore the greatest pain at being the instrument that thwarted his own revenge. He takes perverse pleasure in the fact that Hareton was born with a sensitive nature, which Heathcliff has corrupted and degraded. Heathcliff’s pleasure at this corruption is increased by the f act that Hareton is damnably fond of him.On the other hand, he tries to seduce Isabella, Edgar’s sister, to elope with him. At last, he of course succeeds. Isabella indeed loves Heathcliff and even betrays her beloved brother. However, as a husband, Heathcliff’s cruelty revenge is also evident when he hangs Isabella’s dog despite her protestations. Day after day’s mental abuse leads to her tragedy and awakening:Now, I have the satisfaction of being sure that he detests me, to thepoint of its annoying him seriously to have me within ear-shot oreyesight: I notice, when I enter his presence, the muscles of hiscountenance are involuntarily distorted into an expression of hatred;partly arising from his knowledge of the good causes I have to feelthat sentiment for him, and partly from original aversion…I'verecovered from my first desire to be killed by him: I'd rather he'dkill himself! He has extinguished my love effectually, and so I'm atmy ease. I can recollect yet how I loved him; and can dimlyimagine that I could still be loving him, if − no, no! Even if he haddoted on me, the devilish nature would have revealed its existencesomehow…Monster! Would that he could be bl otted out of creation,and out of my memory!... He's not a human being…and he has noclaim on my charity. I gave him my heart, and he took and pinchedit to death, and flung it back to me. People feel with their hearts,and since he has destroyed mine, I have not power to feel for him.4Isabella hardly tolerates the “monster”, showing great regret and revenge, which indicates Heathcliff’s fierce revenge and distortions.As a means to revenge on Edgar, Cathy, Catherine’s daughter, becomes a victim of Hea chcliff’s plan. She experienced much more than anyone else. Litter Cathy means not only the distortions, but also the destruct of human nature. Insidious Heathcliff make her cousin take her bait into the trap of deception, losing free as well as bearing beating and kicking. He shows feverish affection for her mother while destroying her daughter cruelly. Poor Cathy is forced to marry Little Linton when her beloved father is dying. Then, she is deprived of whole possessions by illegal means, including spiritual wealth. After her husband’s death, she is even thrown into a isolated hostile environment. Here is a detail to explain the revenge on her mentality. When Mr. Lockwood visited Wuthering Heights the third time, he sent Cathy a piece of message from Nelly, and asked for a reply. But she answered lightly and desolately that she even didn’t have a piece of paper to write on! She lives in a helpless world, without any kind words and wink when she is in plight. It is too hard for her to bear such series of shock and mental revenge. At last, her natureis no longer what it was. She becomes an arrogant and indifferent woman, who we have seen at the beginning of the novel. No one loves her, neither does her. She is inconsistent with the world, using strong hatred and indifference from her inner heart. Isn’t this the distortions of human nature or the tragedy of human being which is caused by Heathcliff’s distortions?As a father, Heathcliff’s attitude is devoid of fatherly feeling. He sees his own son only as a pawn in his revenge and his main consideration lies in calculation whether Linton lives long enough to have married Cathy so having acquired Thrushcross Grange. Once the marriage has taken place, Linton’s life is seen as worthless by Heathcliff. His life is not worth a farthing, and Heathcliff won’t spend a farthing on him. He disregards Linton’s poor health, leaving him in dying environment without any care or concern. To him, the poor son is just a tool for revenge.B. Marrying Isabella to Revenge to Linton and CatherineHeathcliff’s revenge on anyone around Catherine, even distorting his and others’ human nature, is with its specific purpose. If you know the story about Heathcliff and Catherine, it is easy to find out what he aims at. Take Isabella as an example, he tries to seduce her to fall in love with him to anger Catherine. When the two women quarrel with each other about his love, his reaches the first goal. Then, he abduct Isabella to elope with him, abuse her, destroys her spiritually. At this point, he finishes his preliminary revenge by taking advantage of Isabella. Apparently, he spends his life in revenging on Catherine and Edgar, for the betrayal of the former and the deprivation of love of the latter. He is so clever that he knows that there is no better way to revenge one than torturing others around him. So he spares no effort to abuse anyone close to Catherine and Linton to beat them, with means of near-metamorphosis.C. Digging Catherine’s Grave to Embrace Her Body and Joining His Soul with HersHeathcliff’s distortions of human nature not only lie in his fierce revenge, but also exist in the love for Catherine. To some extent, these distortions and revenge is the alienation of deep love. Here is a Greek myth about Medea, who is the prototype of Heathcliff:Medea is the daughter of King Kolkhis. She believes J ason’spledge that he will love her forever, and she betrays her owncountry, kills her brother, helps Jason take back golden woolen andkill his enemies, and comes to Korinthos with him. There theyhave two sons and live a happy life for years. Unfortunate thingshappen thereafter. Jason abandons Medea and marries KorinthosPrincess in order to gain power and high position. And Medea isexpelled out of his country by King Korinthos. She twists all herlove to hatred and she begins to revenge J ason’s betrayal andmercilessness. First, she burns Jas on’s new wife, then she killsJ ason’s and also her t wo sons, from which she thinks Jason will beafflicted for losing sons and will never be happy. After the successof revenge, she runs away to Anthem by the help of “Deus exMachina”.5Just as Medea, Heathcliff aims his hatred not only at Catherine and Edgar, but also at the second generation. But we should clearly, all the distortions, revenge, and tragedies results from the alienation of love, the profound love of Heathcliff for Catherine. Do you remember the night that Heathcliff visited Catherine’s grave:Being alone, and conscious two yards of loose earth was the solebarrier between u s, I said to myself −"I'll have her in my armsagain! If she be cold, I'll think it is this north wind that chills ME;and if she be motionless, it is sleep." I got a spade from thetool−house, and began to delve with all my might − it scraped thecoffin; I fell to work with my hands; the wood commencedcracking about the screws; I was on the point of attaining my object,when it seemed that I heard a sigh from some one above, close atthe edge of the grave, and bending down. "If I can only get thisoff," I muttered, "I wish they may shovel in the earth over us both!"and I wrenched at it more desperately still. There was another sigh,close at my ear. I appeared to feel the warm breath of it displacingthe sleet-laden wind. I knew no living thing in flesh and blood wasby; but, as certainly as you perceive the approach to somesubstantial body in the dark, though it cannot be discerned, socertainly I felt that Cathy was there: not under me, but on the earth.A sudden sense of relief flowed from my heart through every limb.I relinquished my labour of agony, and turned consoled at once:unspeakably consoled. Her presence was with me: it remainedwhile I re-filled the grave, and led me home. You may laugh, if youwill; but I was sure I should see her there. I was sure she was withme, and I could not help talking to her.6This memory of Heathcliff vividly shows his profound love of Catherine. He extremely hates Edgar and anyone who prevents him from Catherine. Except Catherine, he treats everyone brutally. He sees nothing except Catherine. He falls so deep in love with Catherine that he would dig the grave and embrace Catherine’s body in order that his soul can join with hers. Although it is a kind of distortion, it is just an alienation of profound love in nature.Ⅲ. Reasons for Heathcliff’s Distortions of Human NatureWhy Heathcliff spends his whole life in revenging on the world? Why he becomes so distorted in human nature? Why he treats anyone except Catherine as his enemies? We need to consider these two questions on two bases.A. Cruelly Social Environment and Fierce Class Origin owing to Heathcliff’s DistortionsUndoubtedly, cruel social environment and fierce class origin are regarded as root causes. The 19th century of England was the great Victorian Age with great economic, social, and political change. The beginning of the Industrial Revolution was a time of great prosperity for some but poverty for factory and working people. At that time, the prosperity of the middle and upper classes and the wrenched condition of the poor differed greatly. People of the underclass hardly had right in law, and destined to be abused by upper classes. Heathcliff is on behalf of these poor ones. He begins his life as a homeless orphan on the streets of Liverpool. Uncared for and unloved, he lives in a hostile and frightening world in himself, which is caused by the real society. Heathcilff owned almost the love of Mr. Earnshaw, because he is the substitute of his died son—Heathcliff. But soon the family relationship becomes spiteful and hateful because of his low origin and identity, which are also caused by the society. In his childhood, Mr. Earnshaw is like Heathcliff’s shelter. But the death of him is the turning point of Heathcliff’s life. From that time, the poor boy is badly treated by young Hindley, whose behavior even make him distorted humanity. It is the injury inflicted on him during his childhood results in the tragedy later. Even when coming back years after Catherine’s marriage with great possessions, Heathcliff does not belong to the upper class because of his poor origin. That is to say, for a person from the lower, no matter how rich one is now, he is always what he was. The discrimination from others make they lose whatever they arelonging for, including love, and dignity. The only thing left is to retaliate the world to balance the pain of the loss. More pains, more retaliations. It is natural for the appearance of distortions. In a word, such distortions come from the social reality and Heathcliff is a representative of the effects of cruelty, deprivation and alienation that are the products of civilization.B. Deep Love for Catherine as the Immediate CauseUndoubtedly, Catherine’s betrayal influences the human nature of Heathcliff directly. Coming from the bottom of the society, Heathcliff suffers pain and rejection. Because he loves Catherine, he doesn’t care about the prejudice of world. Such kind of love is so unique that he regards Catherine as the only pillar of his world. In other words, they belong to each other. However, when Catherine comes back from the Grange, everything seems changed. She pursues material instead of the eternal love between herself and Heathcliff. She chooses Edgar for the reasons of hierarchy and vanity. Then she betrays her feeling, and becomes Mrs. Linton, although she thinks herself was Heathcliff. At that time, the inner world of our protagonist begins to collapse because of Catherine’s leaving. Three years later, he comes back with resentment to those who prevented them from being together. But he still loves Catherine faithfully. To Heathcliff, losing his love makes him crazy. After the death of Catherine, Heathcliff’s lust for love is gone. Life for Heathcliff then is an unnatural existence, for his soul is missing, and his world collapses completely. At that time, Heathcliff’s anger and frustration peak and his behavior verges on madness. He is driven on the desire to revenge his loss and alleviate his pain. By comparison, such kind of revenge is so fierce that it makes the whole world shocked, and is viewed as the distortion of the human nature. To some extent, however, the fuse of such distortion is Catherine’s betrayal, which means the lost of his soul and reliance. In Heathcliff’s life, there used to be love. When the first and the unique love leave, hatred grows madly in his deep heart, spreading in the bone and twisting his soul completely. After he finishes the revenge,however, unprecedented sorrow surrounds him. In a word, these distortions come from profound love.Ⅳ. Influences over Heathcliff’s DistortionsA. Damage to Other’s Course of Life, Causing a Series of TragediesHeathcliff’s distortions cause revenge from inner heart, leading a series of tragedies. It can be said that his distortions damage others, even his own courses of life. Suppose he did not come back, Catherine and Edgar would be happy in Grange. Isabella and Cathy would be in another position, surely would find their own happiness. Hareton would be a gentleman, polite and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, the truth is just opposite. Heathcliff’s strong revenge changes everyone’s life, forcefully rewriting their history.B. His Leading a Torturous Life, Including Mental and Physical SufferingWhen he successfully makes other s’ tragedies, his own life is changing simultaneously. After Catherine’s death, his revenge becomes uncontrolled. Distortions and alienations of love bring him a torturous life, including mental and physical suffering. He suffers a lot from missing his love. At the beginning of novel, when Mr. Lockwood sees Catherine’s spirit, Heathcliff shows his affection and despair, “Come in! come in!' he sobbed. 'Cathy, do come. Oh, do − ONCE more! Oh! my heart's darling! hear me THIS time, Catherine, at last!”7 Affectionate calling exposes miss from his bottom of heart. In other words, he is living in the memory and fantasy of Catherine. True love goes through time and space as if he believed his voice could touch anyone and any ghost. Day after day, although he treats others cruelly, he leads a life in a trance. He is a lonely soul wandering in the world. Once a person is mentally battered, he is certainly in a poor health. When he finally realizes the meaninglessness of life, he chooses suicide to be with Catherine forever. His distortions caused from the alienation of love leads to great tragedies, belonging to not only others, but also he himself.C. Increasing Love for Catherine Who has Already DiedIn the novel, Heathcliff’s eternal faithfulness to Catherine is easily to see. When Catherine chooses the reality, his love begins to alienate. After the death of Catherine, as his anger and frustration peak and his behavior verges on madness, his passionate love to Catherine increases. Maybe something lost is the best. But at the end of his life, he finally feels sinful. Because he forebodes the encounter with Catherine’s spirit, and the illusory love finally deprives him of the forces of evil. He sees the unfortunate outcome. Lastly, he notices that everything he has done is meaningless, with no requirement of love, respect, or self satisfaction. On the contrary, he ruins both the others and himself. His dedication in what has already gone makes life contradictory and painful, causing his own tragedy at last.Ⅴ. ConclusionWuthering Heights reflects the real society where Emily Bronte lived. Intensification of social contradictions and harsh social reality inspire her with the unbelievable, totally twisted, anxious and despair image. She thought that the eager for happiness came from one’s nature, which is reasonable and natural. However, the society of 19th century inhibited such eager, resulting in its distortions. Inevitably, positive factors in human nature changed into insane and negative ones, which destroyed the society.The great novel is mad from beginning to the end, just like mad influences from Germany romantic literature. The importance of status and money can be seen from many details, such as Catherine’s betrayal. Of course, when we are examining Heathcliff’s falling of human nature, cruel domination of Victoria should be taken consideration of the whole novel.Heathcliff is a devil hero as well as a symbol of indomitable strength. His all fierce determination lies in passionate love to Catherine and crazy revenge on impediment to his love. It can be said that his life concentrates on himself, rotating on his own personality. He loves Catherine more than himself, while he is a cruel one in nature. So his distortions of human nature are naturally the alienation of passionate love.It is normally regarded that Heathcliff is a “displacement” of Medea. Both are desperate from love and lead to hatred, and then begin to revenge. He is always longing for the deep love and freedom, which are too far to reach. He falls deeply in love with Catherine. He would dig the grave and embrace Catherine’s body in order to join his soul with hers. A person as he is, Heathcliff has to bear between love and hatred and because of the depth of his passio n, he hates as deeply as he loves. Heathcliff is a person of contradictions, because his sincere nature is twisted and abused and great love is destroyed by then social reality. His fierce revenge on the world is contrary to normal human feelingsand ethical concepts. His love is the social tragedy. So in this sense, Heathcliff is innocent.Although such distortions are terrible and strong, causing serious revenge and tragedies, the author fills him with whole sympathy. Heathcliff is a normal with usual feeling of love. He loves profoundly. He is respectable, patient and sincere. He saves Hareton with his hands instinctively. Meanwhile, he treats Nelly equally. But as the hurts he endures go beyond his tolerance, he changes the love into hatred, which calls him to revenge everything. His tragedy equals to the past which he is unwilling to forget and forgive. Unfortunately, to him, love and hate mean the calling of life. To some extent, Heathcilff reflects Emily’s inner heart. She expresses her views that losing love means losing humanity. Mr. Fang Ping ever said: “Love is the blue flame, pure and beautiful; “hatred” is the red flame that is giving off black smoke. That is to say, the hatred here is not real hatred; it is the alienation of love.”8 All the distortions come from deep love and reflect the reality that Emily Bronte suffered as well as her individuality. So it is easy to find out that no matter what the kind is, love is the eternal theme for life, including alienations resulting in distortions like Heathcilff. Undoubtedly, because of deep love and strong revenge as well as fierce distortions, which are successfully represented by the great author, Wuthering Heights is remarked as “the representative novel out of the mainstream of the novels in the 19th century”.Endnotes1郭群英，《英国文学新编（上）》，北京：外语教学与研究出版社，2003年，第207-208页。

她认为，人对现实幸福的渴望完全出于人的本性，是自然的和合理的，而社会的错误恰恰在于抑制了人的渴望，从而使这些被压抑的欲望畸形滋长，其恶果必然是使人性中那些健康的积极的因素畸变为病态的、消极的因素，并对社会产生了一定的破坏性。

希斯克利夫正是这样一个被资本主义社会所扭曲的灵魂，原本善良的希斯克利夫被侮辱折磨之后，明白了人生的残酷和社会的无情，变成了恶魔。

他的扭曲性格的形成完全是当时社会摧残的结果。

希斯克利夫的爱情悲剧是社会的悲剧，也是时代的悲剧。

浅析《呼啸山庄》中希斯克利夫的悲剧人生摘要：英国女作家艾米莉·勃朗特的《呼啸山庄》塑造了被畸形社会扭曲了人性的希斯克利夫主人公形象。

在深刻分析原作的基础上，揭示了希斯克利夫的悲剧人生既是社会的悲剧又是爱情的悲剧，更是个人性格的悲剧。

关键词：社会爱情性格悲剧艾米莉·勃朗特唯一的小说《呼啸山庄》一直被认为是英国文学史上一部“最奇特的小说”，是一部“奥秘莫测”的“怪书”。

原因在于它一反同时代作品的伤感主义情调，而以强烈的爱、狂暴的恨及由之而起的无情的报复，取代了低沉的伤感和忧郁。

同时，该小说也是一部备受争议的作品，评论界从未停止过对这部作品的关注。

小说中的主人公希斯克利夫那奔腾呼啸的激情，鲜明强悍的爱恨意识以及残酷无情的报复手段深深地吸引着读者，他也成为英国小说史上最为复杂的人物之一，可谓“集人性与兽性于一身”。

希斯克利夫的人生悲剧是内外因共同作用的结果，即当时的社会阶级压迫，爱情的背叛以及个人性格共同塑造了这样一个复杂矛盾的形象。

（一）社会的压迫《呼啸山庄》讲述的是在英国北方约克郡荒原上两个山庄(呼啸山庄和画眉山庄)里两代人之间的复杂情感纠葛。

在维多利亚时代,财富的分配始终不均,贫富分化非常严重。

人们的生活水平成两极分化,一个社会中存在着天堂与地狱的鸿沟。

于是人们对金钱的追求与膜拜达到了磨灭人性的程度,希斯克利夫正是这样一个被资本主义社会扭曲的灵魂。

他是被呼啸山庄的老主人恩肖先生从利物浦大街上捡回来的一个无名无姓的流浪儿,而他黝黑的肤色使得确认他的民族都相当困难。

这样一个地位低下,身无分文的孩子一到呼啸山庄,就激起了绝大多数人的反对和歧视,他的苦难生活由此开始。

社会地位低下的希斯克利夫在那个时代是注定与幸福无缘的。

到了呼啸山庄之后，希斯克利夫开始就没有受到呼啸山庄众人的欢迎,而恩肖先生对他的疼爱又引起恩肖先生儿子辛德莱对他产生仇恨的敌视心理,因为辛德莱痛恨他夺走了自己父亲和妹妹的爱。

[中图分类号]：I106 [文献标识码]：A[文章编号]：1002-2139(2016)-35-100-02《呼啸山庄》是英国著名作家爱米莉·勃朗特所著的一部小说。

小说中的主人公辛德雷、希斯克利夫一直是广大文学评价者关注的主要人物。

尤其是希斯克利夫的评价，有人认为复仇是理所当然的，因为希斯克利夫不仅遭受辛德雷的无情虐待，还要面对自己心爱之人凯瑟琳的无情背叛，在这种的双重打击之下，他把自己变的强大，是性格使然，并且最终他放弃了仇恨。

但是反对者认为他性格扭曲之后的所作所为是毫无人性的。

小说结局体现出了希斯克利夫性格的分裂，双重人格使他一直备受文学界争议。

一、《呼啸山庄》中希斯克利夫扭曲性格的原因成长环境是造成希斯克利夫扭曲性格的主要原因。

第一，希斯克利夫童年不堪的生活，他是恶势力被压迫的人。

希斯克利夫与辛德雷相比，他的出生是贫穷的，地位是低微的，他是呼啸山庄的老庄主肖恩从利物浦的大街上捡回来的弃儿，老庄主一直对他关爱有加，从而使他贫穷的生活有了很大的改善，命运开始变得幸运和快乐。

但是对他好的肖恩因为年老死去，肖恩的长子辛德雷接管了呼啸山庄，他一直将希希斯克利夫视为低贱的仆人、奴隶，从此开始无休止的羞辱、压迫、折磨希斯克利夫，剥夺希斯克利夫的一切权利，对他进行各种强制干预，不让其接受教育，不让其与心爱的凯瑟琳约会见面，只让他干永远干不完的重活，像对待牲口一样对待他，使得希斯克利夫失去了作为人的基本尊严。

?《呼啸山庄》中的希斯克利夫形象分析摘要：19世纪英国著名女作家艾米莉•勃朗特在《呼啸山庄》中细致地塑造了魔鬼般的人物，成为这部作品的闪光点，也引起了诸多评论家的讨论.本文将从恶势力的压迫者、爱情的受害者、疯狂的复仇者和人性的回归者四个方面来分析希斯克利夫的形象。

关键词：希斯克利夫；爱；恨；复仇一、恶势力的被压迫者希斯克利夫七岁那年，欧肖先生把他从利物浦街头带回呼啸山庄。

他初尝了来自亲人之间的关爱和温暖。

他也希望能用自己的乖巧来使欧肖先生开心。

但是欧肖先生的儿子辛德雷因为嫉妒希斯克利夫夺走了父亲对他的关爱，便开始在暗地里欺负他。

然而希斯克利夫选择了逆来顺受。

从纳莉的回忆中我们可以看到，即使她和辛德雷可耻地折磨他，他就像是个憋着一肚子气，耐着性子的孩子，很吃硬，受些虐待，也许不当一回事呢。

他能挨着辛德雷一下一下的拳头，不眨一眨眼，也不掉一滴泪；纳莉一把一把拧他，也只能叫他倒吸一口气，睁着眼，好像是自己不小心撞痛了，怨不得别人似的。

欧肖先生过世后，辛德雷成为呼啸山庄的统治者，他便变本加厉地折磨希斯克利夫。

他把希斯克利夫赶到了下人那儿住，剥夺他受教育的权利，逼迫他像庄上的小伙子那样干重活，并且严厉禁止他与心爱的凯瑟琳接触。

他就像对待动物一样对待希斯克利夫，使他失去了做人的最基本的尊严。

除了辛德雷，林顿一家也看不起希斯克利夫，认为他是怪物，不配到体面的人家家里去。

`因此，希斯克利夫在欧肖老先生的溺爱下培养起来的优越感逐渐消失了。

二、爱情的受害者当所有人都不能接纳希斯克利夫的时候，凯瑟琳和他成为了朋友。

她愿意和他手拉手在荒原上蹦跳玩耍，和他推心置腹地谈心。

在日后的接触中，他们发现彼此相互吸引，遂坠入爱河。

因此，凯瑟琳是他在被欺负的日子里的唯一依靠，是圣人一样的存在，是他情感的倾泻口。

但是凯瑟琳从画眉山庄返回后，一切都变了。

他从一个披着长发的野丫头变成了雍容华贵的淑女。

回到呼啸山庄后，她寻找着希斯克利夫，拥抱他，亲吻他，但又害怕他弄脏自己的衣服。

1. 引言1.1 背景介绍在《呼啸山庄》中，希思克厉夫是一个备受争议、充满矛盾的人物。

希思克厉夫的背景故事是这一切的源头。

这种经历造就了他内心的冷漠和愤怒，也让他养成了报复的习性。

他也不乏慈善和仁慈之举，展现出了一些善良的品质。

希思克厉夫的双重性格根植于他的经历和环境，他的每一种情感和行为都有其深刻的内在原因。

在接下来的正文中，我们将深入探讨希思克厉夫的冷酷与热情、善良与邪恶、报复与宽容、自私与无私等各个方面，揭示他复杂的性格所带来的影响和意义。

浅论《呼啸山庄》中的希斯克利夫形象摘要：本文浅要论述了《呼啸山庄》中的希斯克利夫形象，从这一人物形象的塑造上可以看出艾米莉·勃朗特本人的生活准则。

关键词：《呼啸山庄》；希斯克利夫形象；艾米莉·勃朗特从19世纪30年代到70年代，英国已逐步成为世界头号工业大国。

但随着工业资产阶级的勃兴，国内劳资矛盾日渐突出，处于社会底层的“小人物”受到社会的不公正待遇。

英国现实主义文学正出现于此时，它一直注重反映工业资本主义发展时期日趋尖锐的劳资矛盾，而艾米莉·勃朗特就是这一时期出现的被马克思称作是“一派出色的小说家”中的一员。

艾米莉·勃朗特是英国19世纪著名诗人和小说家，她与夏洛蒂·勃朗特和小妹妹安·勃朗特号称“勃朗特三姐妹”，在英国19 世纪文坛上焕发了异彩。

《呼啸山庄》是她唯一的一部小说，在英国文学史上是一部惊世骇俗之作，被认为是一部“最奇特的小说”和“神秘莫测的怪书”。

虽然说现在已经得到世人的认同，但1847年12月发表时，并不为当时世人所理解，甚至连她的姐姐夏洛蒂也无法理解艾米莉的思想。

时至今日，小说中的人物和思想仍使人们感到迷惑不解，却又引人入胜。

有人称《呼啸山庄》是一场人间游戏，无法在英国小说发展史上为这本书找到合适的位置。

《呼啸山庄》部分地继承了描写恐怖暴力和神怪的哥特式小说的传统，然而，她远远的超出了哥特式小说。

其中所表现出来的主题和内容偏离了维多利亚时期小说的主旋律，即使是与它同时代的以爱情为创作主题的英国小说相比，它也一改流行的伤感情调，而代之以强烈的爱和疯狂的恨。

那是人性中对爱情的热烈拥抱，对不平等的强烈报复，没有孰是孰非，只有血和泪，黑暗和火焰。

正如这本书名所预示的一样，这里发生的一切，就像是一场风暴。

而小说主人公希斯克利夫那奔腾呼啸的激情，鲜明强悍的爱恨意识以及残酷无情的报复手段更使之成为英国小说史上最为复杂的人物之一。

希斯克利夫是一个性格复杂，行为怪僻的人物。
