Analysis of fictional elements in Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte*No works citedIn Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte developed characters that revolved around real-life experiences of her childhood. Emily was born and raised in Thornton, Yorkshire. Haworth, a Yorkshire suburb in the north of England, was far from cultural London. The Haworthparsonage was almost surrounded by a cemetery. Emily and her siblings spent most of their lives in this dark setting. Patrick Brontë, an Irish minister, was the father of six children. All the children were very disciplined due to their father's forced and cruel discipline. Maria Brontë died of typhus, leaving her children without a mother figure. Emily was fiercely independent. She was strongly opposed to formal religion. This could be due to the hardships she endured as a child. Emily felt no love from her Aunt Branwell, who took care of them when her mother died. Aunt Branwell was a very religious person, but had no compassion in her life for her nieces. She felt no connection between them (Barrons7). In Jane Eyre, this real situation was recreated between Jane and her Aunt Reed (11 years old). Emily was left in the care of an aunt who had absolutely no affection for her. These real-life situations became themes throughout the books written by Emily and Charlotte Brontë. Emily became very loyal to her father and had difficulty leaving her home environment. She remained with her ailing brother until his death in September 1848, aged 30. During her brother's funeral, Emily caught a cold and never left the house again. She fell into a deep depression. His sisters couldn't help him. Emily died at the age of 30, never achieving the success that Wuthering Heights would achieve. His father, Patrick Bronte, survived all his children (The Professor 5). After the tragedy of Emily's death, her sister Charlotte wrote Jane Eyre, which was an immediate success. So devastated by the death of his beloved wife, Patrick retreated to his office. To fulfill his duties as pastor, he left his study. The children were mostly left to their own devices, giving them plenty of time to create their imaginations through books and writing.
