"Wuthering Heights" appears in 1847 in an England constrained by Victorian propriety; it is the only novel by a twenty-eight-year-old writer nearing death from tuberculosis. Initially published in a limited number of copies, it does not attract much interest, but it later establishes itself as a singular masterpiece of English literature. Set in the solitary and wild moors of Yorkshire, it unfolds a tumultuous and destructive love affair. The intense contrasts between the inhabitants of a prosperous valley home and those of a farmhouse on a windy hill converge in the figure of the orphan Heathcliff. The contradictory and venomous human passions intertwine love with suffering and cruel revenge. The model of the "gothic" novel is transcended, rendered incandescent through symbolic suggestions and exceptional emotional intensity. The exploration of conflicting affections and extreme emotions does not compromise the precise style that dissects human understanding, infusing those unrecognizable transparencies with such a breath of life that they transcend reality. The appendix includes the most significant and touching letters from the rich correspondence of the Brontë family.

Dynastie Tudorovců vládla v Anglii po několik úspěšných a dynamických období. Na trůnu se střídali králové i královny a za jejich vlády se z druhořadé, nevýznamné Anglie stala jedna z vůdčích světových mocností. V průběhu několika desetiletí vlády Tudorovců došlo v zemi k velkému hospodářskému i kulturnímu rozvoji, ale také k válkám, náboženské perzekuci a veřejným popravám. K nejvýraznějším panovníkům patří Jindřich VII., známý svou šetrností, a hlavně jeho syn Jindřich VIII., pověstný svou zhýralostí a prostopášností. Panování katolické královny Marie I., přezdívané Krvavá Marie, bylo obdobím krutého pronásledování náboženských odpůrců z řad anglikánské církve. Během krátké vlády nechala Marie popravit upálením na tři stovky obětí z řad prostých lidí, ale i šlechticů a náboženských hodnostářů. Poslední významnou panovnicí této královské dynastie byla Alžběta I. Ta vládla z Tudorovců nejdéle, celých čtyřicet pět let (1558-1603), během nichž se v Anglii poměry uklidňovaly a nastal nebývalý rozkvět společnosti i umění. Kniha vyzdobená množstvím ilustrací přináší strhující i zábavný pohled na dobu, která bývá historiky nazývána "zlatý věk" Anglie.
