Violence is a reoccurring encounter in Emily Bronte's novel, Wuthering Heights. Her reason for using so much violence is to express the raw and passionate emotion of the characters. Violence takes place in many forms. Here you have violence in nature, mental abuse and physical abuse. Our view of nature as a force in need of taming goes back to prehistoric times. Men want desperately to control their environment and to gain control over themselves. Heathcliff is an example of the effects of cruelty and alienation that are the products of civilization. His brutality is a direct result of having been denied the fundamental need of a nurturing childhood. The constant rejection and humiliation that he experiences stimulate his need for revenge. He substitutes hate for love and violence for peace.
