- Contrast of the two houses
- Thrushcross Grange
- Freedom- thrush- contrasts with characters (eg Isabella, Young Cathy)
- Cross- religious connotaions
- Sophisticated name for civilised house
- Oxymoron of thrushcross- thrush- birds and freedom, cross- anger
- Thrush- contrasts with the idea of Heathcliff being the cuckoo bird who kicks people out
- Phonologically sounds full of live
- Connotations of upper class
- Where the civilised characters lives the House reflects the character's civilisation (Edgar and Isabella)
- Untitled
- Wuthering Heights
- Dominant and ancient (medieval)
- Wuthering- colloquial term for wind- pathethic fallacy
- for the dramatic events surrounding the house
- Tall, gothic building- reflects the genre of the novel
- Isolated- like many of the characters who live there
- Cathy has a deep connection to the House- dreams about being there rather then Heaven
- Oxymoron in the name: wuthering- lower class and heights-upper class
- Represents the wild side of the novel and the wild characters- eg Heathcliff, Cathy, Hareton
- Thrushcross Grange
