Wuthering Heights – Life is Hard
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 Brontë'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.

During the Archaic and Classical periods in Ancient Greece, the technique and scheme of arts had dramatically developed, and temple buildings became more decorative and more complex. The development of the temple buildings, such as the painting and crafting skills, and the change in construction technique and building materials, indicated an increase of the local economy. Nearly all ancient complex societies built some forms of monumental architecture, for these buildings were not only religiously important, but also served the purpose as a deliberate symbol of power and wealth of the rulers and their poleis. Even though greater amounts of money and attention had been put into these constructions, it is hard to say that these buildings symbolized the concentration of social surplus of any Greek polis.

Living with a child with special needs can have profound effects on the entire family including the extended family members, siblings, parents, and the child with the special needs. It can affect all aspects of family functioning, since they have to be on the watch for the child. On the positive side, living with a child with special needs can expand horizons, develop family cohesion, increase the family members’ awareness of their inner strength, and promote connections to community groups. On the negative side, this child will need time, physical and emotional demands and financial cost in order to make the child’s life comfortable. However, the impacts will depend on the child’s condition, and its severity, as well as the emotional, physical, and the financial resources available to take care of the child.

The setting is the backbone for a novel it sets the tone and gives the reader a mental image of the time and places the story takes place. The Wuthering Heights Estate in Emily Bronte’s novel “Wuthering Heights” is one of the most important settings in the story. Wuthering Heights sets mood for the scenes taken place in the house, and reflects the life of Heathcliff through its description, furniture, windows, gates, and the vegetation.
Much meaning that was not overtly written into Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights can be discovered by using Freudian interpretation. This meaning was not consciously intended by Bronte, but can be very interesting and helpful in finding significance in the book. Freud used dream analysis, symbolism, and psychoanalytical techniques to find meaning that was not apparent in his patients the other subjects of his analysis.
