This revision of a widely adopted critical edition presents the 1847 text of Emily Bronte's British Victorian novel along with critical essays that read Wuthering Heights from four contemporary perspectives: psychoanalytic, Marxist, feminist, and cultural studies. An additional essay demonstrates how several critical perspectives can be combined. In the second edition, two of the five essays are new. The text and essays are complemented by contextual documents and illustrations (new), introductions with bibliographies, and a glossary of critical and theoretrical terms.
