Significance Of Thresholds In The Work Of Bronte And Shelley : 
[ send me this paper ]
The idea behind a threshold is threefold: it separates the space between what lies on one side of the door and the other, it stops the door from swinging between those same spaces and it forms the base for the frame of the door. The analogy of a door is a popular one for understanding life, whether fictional representations of life or real life. Doors open into new spaces, experiences and knowledge. This 7 page paper examines the stories of Jane Erye, by Charlotte Bronte, Wuthering Heights, by Emily Bronte, and Frankenstein, written by Mary Shelley, and argues that there is at least one incident where a character 'stands at the threshold' of a decision that will change their life.

Edgar, Catherine And Heathcliff: Analyzing Identity Through Social And Cultural Influences
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Although written over one hundred years ago, Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights" captures the anguish and troubled times both men and women met head-on when confronted with the social and cultural dilemmas. The paradox here is that although the Catherine, Heathcliff and Edgar were of a different social status altogether, the experiences they were forced to deal with as individuals were not at all dissimilar from one another. Even though society prides itself on the “you’ve come a long way, baby” way of thinking, have social and cultural discrimination in fact come that far? By analyzing the identity of these three fictional characters, the writer discusses the social and cultural influences that are imposed upon them at Thrushcross Grange and Wuthering Heights, as well as how these influences serve to construct their entire identity.
