Wuthering Heights is not a religious novel, because it supports a specific religion (Christianity), or a specific branch of Christianity (Protestantism) and a specific Protestant Sect (Church of England). More precisely, the religion in this novel appears in the form of realizing or believing that the soul exists after death.

The overwhelming feeling of a greater reality prompted Rudolf Otto to call Wuthering Heights the highest example of "devil's" in literature. Otto is concerned with identifying the irrational mystery behind all religions and all religious experiences; He called this basic element or mystery mystery mystery. Supernatural forces grasp or stir the mind so strongly that one of its reactions is supernatural fear composed of awe or awe. Mysterious fear implies three mysterious qualities: absolute inaccessibility, strength and fear. Its urgency or energy. Primitive people's misunderstanding of these qualities and supernatural fears led to devil's fear, which Otto believed was the first stage of religious development. While they are afraid, they are also attracted by supernatural charm. Otto explained, "The daemonic-diving object may appear in the mind as the object of terror and fear, but at the same time it is also a powerful charm. The creature trembling in front of it is completely frightened and thrown away, always turning to it at the same time, and even making it somehow own." Nevertheless, acknowledging the "devil" is a real religious experience, which produced later religious gods and demons. Some people think that Gothic novels originally sought supernatural fears.

Is Derek travers the Motive Force of Bronte? His novel is "longing for religious experience", which is not Christianity. It is this spirit that prompted Catherine to say loudly: "You and everyone must have a concept, and there is or should be a your existence outside of you. What's the use of my creation if I'm completely confined here? (Ch。 Ix, page 64). Catherine's-and Bronte? The understanding of the finiteness of human nature brings the desire for higher reality, eternal, infinite and eternal; A higher reality, which will make the self complete and complete, will also replace the emptiness of this world with the fullness of existence (the fullness of existence is a phrase used by mystics to describe the consequences of God's direct experience). The religious inspiration of "Bronte" turned a discussion about how to spend an idle summer into a debate about the nature of heaven. "Bronte," her religious view includes Cathy's and Linton's views on heaven and life, because she sees a world in which various forces contained in her nature struggle with each other. She tries to unite them in this novel, although, Traversi admits, the emphasis on passion and death often masks the motivation of unity. Even Heathcliff was close to death when he shouted, "The happiness of my soul killed my body, but I didn't satisfy myself" (Ch. Xxxiv, page 254), has a religious resonance.

Thomas John Winnipeg also saw religious significance in his novels: winning salvation through suffering, as revealed by the analysis of heaven and hell. For Heathcliff, losing Catherine is simply hell; He claimed that "the existence after losing her would be hell" (Ch. Xiv, page 1 17). In their last interview, Catherine and Heathcliff both suffered from the pain of separation. She suffered "the same pain in the ground" and he "struggled in hell" (XV, page 124). Heathcliff was tortured by his obsession with dead/absent Catherine. After suffering from the hell on earth, Healthcliff finally reached heaven and joined with Catherine's soul. Nelly and Joseph's views on heaven and hell are conventional and do not represent Bronte? According to Winnipeg.

Jane went through a lot. In fact, most of the content of this novel has become a test that she can stand. Helen burns and Miss Temple taught Jane a strong upper lip and holy patience. She is n Jane's star student, which embodies the spirit of perseverance and survives repeated insults. Jane's soul lurks deep in her body, waiting for the shelling to stop. Only at the end of Moore, where she taught and grew up, will her soul appear. She stopped bearing and began to live. Jane began to be a "me" when she was 19 years old.

In the sentence, "reader, I married him." Jane made it clear who was the master of her life and marriage; She is. "I" firmly stands on the subject of the sentence that dominates the verb and attaches itself to the object "He". Instead of being passive, she waited and sat waiting for Rochester's attention. Instead, she went out to look for him.

She has come a long way from the beginning of the novel. In Gateshead, Jane tried to guide her life. Her little "I" scolded Mrs. Reed and punished John. Like later Jane, she knew what she thought and said it. However, unlike later Jane, she didn't have enough financial resources to support her soul. She doesn't have enough physical strength, intelligence and financial resources to stand on her own feet. Therefore, she can be thrown into the red house to confess her sins or into lowood.

In Lowood, her evil saints helen burns and Miss Temple suppressed their young selves under the cover of will, religion and self-sacrifice. Helen taught Jane to blame herself and no one else. Helen endured the ravages of shame. Her name was dirty nails and messy socks, and she kept shouting, "Thank you, sir. May I have another one?" Jane internalized this so much that she blamed herself for Rochester's mistakes and even forgave the unforgivable Mrs. Reed. As far as Miss Temple is concerned, she teaches simplicity to be subversive but charming. Rebellion is seed cake and smile. The rebellion didn't stop the students from being forced to walk ten miles to the church. Jane also follows these rules and uses Rochester's fragmentary information.

With a devastating explosion, Rochester blew the two idols into respectable rubble and sent Jane back to nature. Her soul, buried or locked in the attic for a long time, suddenly broke out and sent Jane to escape the cabin. In the wilderness, Jane sucks the dirt and chooses to continue living and rebuild herself. First with the help of her cousins, and then with the help of the arrogant and humble Rivers St. John, Jane rediscovered herself and abandoned herself. Ironically, her final self-definition came from when Rivers proposed. Helen burns and Miss Temple would have seized the opportunity to kneel, but Jane let the cup pass by. In her refusal, she swept away the debris and stood alone.

So, when she returned to Thornfield, she came with her own money and her own identity. Whether relegated or not, Rochester can only stand with Jane, but not above her. She came with skills, cash and self-knowledge. Under her own strength, she surrendered to Rochester. She allowed herself to be called Janet and called him "sir". She bowed her head willingly for a while.

But not for long. In the last chapter, Jane directly faces her "readers". The last chapter takes place one or two years after the fire, and mature Jane reviews her life. Through writing, Jane defined her position and stayed away from the training of saints. Through the photo shoot, in all the ugliness, she separated herself from the role. Jane in the first 38 chapters is not the final Jane. Jane had a child, married a man and got a place in the world. The great victory of this sentence comes not from the man she married, but from rediscovering and reaffirming the voice that once scolded Mrs. Reed. The girl who lost her voice in lowood became a woman who could tell us the story. The novel itself is Jane's last "I"
