Abstract

The article focuses on the linguistic control of the literary text of the book Wuthering Heights. The first three chapter of the narrative was devoted to the repetition of intrusion. The outsider, conventional in language as well as understanding, makes repeated efforts to force the reader's way to the penetralium. The exclusion of Lockwood from the Heights and the displacement of Lockwood as direct narrator of the novel, his excommunication from Wuthering Heights both as a banishment from its community and as a relegation to a position outside of communication, are already the common, if oblique, themes of the dreams themselves.
