  • Wuthering Heights (Oxford World Classics)

    Wuthering Heights is one of the most famous love stories in the English language. It is also, as the Introduction to this edition reveals, one of the most potent revenge narratives. Its ingenious narrative structure, vivid evocation of landscape, and the extraordinary power of its depiction of love and hatred have given it a unique place in English literature. The passionate tale of Catherine and Heathcliff is here presented in a new edition that examines the qualities that make it such a powerful and compelling novel. The Introduction by Helen Small sheds light on the novel’s oddness and power, its amorality and Romantic influences, its structure and narration, and the sadistic violence embodied in the character of Heathcliff.

    The volume retains the authoritative Clarendon text and notes, with new notes that identify literary allusions hitherto unnoticed. In addition, the edition boasts two appendices, one of which contains poems by Emily Brontë selected for their relevance to the novel, and a second which contains Charlotte Brontë’s “Biographical Notice of Ellis & Acton Bell” and “Preface to the New Edition.”

    About the Series: For over 100 years Oxford World’s Classics has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford’s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, voluminous notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

    The Junior Companion is an engaging and lively new book for students learning the rudiments of the English language. It gently and expertly introduces students to the basics of English grammar and sentence construction, as well as extending their vocabulary.

    The book also serves as an invaluable guide and reference book for all students learning English in primary schools. It has been carefully written to ensure the language, presentation and material are appropriate for this age range. It has also been carefully checked to ensure that grammatically correct English is used consistently throughout the book.

    The book is beautifully illustrated with a variety of pictures and diagrams to help sustain students’ interest and concentration. Although a number of exercises (and full answers) are provided, the main focus of the book is the learning of the English language and, to this end, the text contains many examples of sentence construction and applications of simple English grammar rules.

    The emphasis of the book is on active learning and not on factual testing or simple recall. Put simply, the book is a ‘learning book’ and not a ‘workbook’.

    Teachers may make use of the materials by giving the exercises as formal homework or simply as exercises for students to practise on.
