论《呼啸山庄》中窗的意象

Discussion on the Image of Windows in Wuthering Heights

窗这一意象贯穿《呼啸山庄》全文,其象征着狂野、自由的呼啸山庄与文明、禁闭的画眉田庄的对立,风暴之子与宁静之子的对立与转换,凯瑟琳本我与自我的冲突。在特定的历史背景下,在自然与文明的冲突中,黑暗社会对纯洁的灵魂之爱的扼杀以及对人性的扭曲,窗内窗外的一个个悲剧,也正是社会悲剧的缩影。窗开、窗破之时,便是这一切对立、冲突、阻隔消失殆尽之时。艾米莉运用窗的意象,表达了对自然与文明关系的思考与诉求以及对人性问题的探求与理解。

The image of window runs through the whole text of Wuthering Heights,which symbolizes the opposition between wild and free Wuthering Heights and civilized and confined Thrushcross Grange,the opposition and transformation between the son of storm and the son of tranquility,and the conflict between Catherine's ID and self.In the specific historical background,in the conflict between nature and civilization,the dark society strangles the pure soul love and distorts human nature.The tragedies inside and outside the windows are the epitome of social tragedy.When the window is open or broken,all the oppositions,conflicts and barriers disappear.Emily uses the image of window to express her thoughts and demands on the relationship between nature and civilization as well as her exploration and understanding of human nature.
