Essay / Research Paper Abstract
6 pages in length. Paramount to the theme of revenge is the acknowledgment of the self-inflicted abuse Heathcliff imparts upon himself as he attempts to regain control of his own life. Never quite able to be comfortable in his own skin, Heathcliff always wanted for more – more respect, more understanding and certainly more of Catherine. With slight exception, his desires were forever met with disappointment. Inasmuch as Heathcliff completely loses himself in Catherine, it can readily be argued that the thematic importance of this aspect clearly relates to his desire to break free from the patriarchal control he has experienced throughout his life, never quite able to see himself as anything other than a lowly social outcast amidst a sea of transparent elitism.

works through his life of physical and emotional torment, as well as the loss of his one true love, Heathcliff comes to represent the underdog of lifes unrelenting disappointments, forever
struggling with issues of control. The "dirty, ragged, black-haired child" (Bronte 77) from Liverpool who finds his way back to Wuthering Heights under
