Pedagogs, 54(1), 180–182.
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte is regarded as one of those foundational works that upended patriarchy. The paper examines the book from a feminist perspective, highlighting the strong female characters who bravely oppose the restrictive laws and circumstances that were placed on women in the 19th century. From the fervent and impetuous Catherine Earnshaw to the quiet and contemplative Isabella Linton, the female characters in Wuthering Heights are portrayed in a multitude of ways. At several moments in the story, these female characters stand up for their freedom and individuality. The tragic union of Isabella Linton and Heathcliff, as well as Nelly Dean's narration, highlight the patriarchal aspects of their culture. At certain points in the story, every female character in the book has spoken out against patriarchy, as well as the societal mores and restrictions that were placed on women in that era. Each of them is fully conscious of their own freedoms.
