This book develops the theory that 'Wuthering Heights' was recast and expanded between its first submission to a publisher in 1846 and its final acceptance and publication in 1847, argues that the chronological coherence of the book was an innovation of the second version and explores the anomolies which still remain.
In The Birth of Wuthering Heights , Edward Chitham explores the sources of Emily Bronte's inspiration and the ways in which she composed her poetry and her one major novel This key study discusses the probable content of her unfinished second novel and also makes use of new discoveries to show that Emily Bronte was not only well-read in the classics, but that she had also made her own translations of Virgil and Horace. It also foregrounds the publishing history of Wuthering Heights , revealing how the original text was almost doubled in size from its first submission to a publishers and its final acceptance. This book, published for the first time in paperback, provides a fascinating insight into Emily Bronte's mind and working methods.
