I love how part of heathcliff’s complicated revenge plan is teaching hareton to constantly swear at his dad.

While I do dislike the interpretation that posits Heathcliff just being Catherine’s “whip” (because I think Heathcliff is more complex than that) I must say that I like how Heathcliff’s revenge makes Catherine Earnshaw truly central to the Earnshaw/Linton family history in a way she otherwise wouldn’t be. If you want to truly understand Wuthering Heights (both the estate and the book), “Hareton Earnshaw 1500” on the entry door is deceptive, “Catherine Earnshaw- Heathcliff - Linton” is the true family history. Hareton’s real power and final victory is due to him having his aunt’s eyes, not due to him being “the true heir”.

(Of course there is a discussion to be had regarding how only a man’s love can make a woman relevant but that’s for another day).

heathcliff : "look at this boy that I've ruined completely, I love him more than my own, what a shame I hated his father and now he must suffer for it without knowing while loving me like a friend"

"and now look at my son, pride is not the word I'm looking for let's hope he doesn't die before marrying his cousin so I can have my dead lover's husband's money"

There is something very Miranda & Caliban about Catherine Linton & Hareton Earnshaw meeting for the first time.

Miranda & Catherine: women who have been raised and educated in isolation by their father, seeing a new person for the first time

Caliban & Hareton: orphans who at one time were educated and cherished, only to be reduced to servitude and savagery (one for just cause, the other by no fault of his own)

And yet the endings could not be more opposite.

Some time ago, I remember a post from @faintingheroine about Wuthering Heights, criticizing the fact that young Cathy has to stop speaking out against Heathcliff because of Hareton's love for him. I agree that this aspect of the plot deserves to be questioned. Heathcliff is young Cathy's captor and abuser. The fact that Hareton not only fails to defend her against him the way she hoped he would, but insists that she not even speak negatively of him, and that her acquiescence is portrayed as a good thing (at least by Nelly), isn't an entirely comfortable plot point, to say the least.

But I think I can offer at least a slight defense of it.

It means that Cathy stands by Hareton even when there's no apparent hope that he'll ever reclaim his father's land and money. Even after Hareton learns the truth about Heathcliff's dealings with Hindley, he has no desire to claim his rightful inheritance because he's too loyal to Heathcliff, which means he'll be living like a laborer as long as Heathcliff is alive. No one knows at this point that Heathcliff will die in just a few days, or that he'll die without making a will, leaving the property to default to Hareton. As far as they know, in all but his birth, Hareton is a nobody with nothing and will stay that way. Yet unlike her mother with young Heathcliff, Cathy doesn't abandon him so as not to be degraded. (Not that the elder Catherine thought she was abandoning Heathcliff by choosing to marry Edgar, but that was her own naïveté and/or self-delusion.)

More than once in the past, I've seen @faintingheroine and others express discomfort with Hareton's status as a "prince in disguise," and feel as if it makes the novel's ending all too conservative. They've noted that while it's tempting to view young Cathy and Hareton as "elder Cathy and Heathcliff redux" and see the daughter as correcting her mother's mistake by embracing her love for the poor, rugged stable boy, it's not really the same, because Hareton isn't a gutter child like Heathcliff was, but the rightful heir to Wuthering Heights. That's all very true. But the fact that Cathy doesn't abandon Hareton after she fails to turn him against Heathcliff shows that she's come to care for him as a person, not because he's the rightful heir. It arguably makes her love for him more progressive and more a case of correcting her mother's mistake after all.

Nor does Cathy stop defying Heathcliff altogether. She continues her friendship with Hareton even though Heathcliff forbade it, and she continues teaching him to read, slowly undoing the harm Heathcliff did by denying him an education. And Hareton is a willing participant. Despite his devotion to Heathcliff, he goes against Heathcliff's will and risks being thrown out by staying friends with Cathy and receiving her lessons. These simple facts make Cathy's acquiescence to Hareton's request that she not criticize Heathcliff seem less like submission and more like a compromise.

Feel free to agree or disagree, but these are my thoughts.

"... a mingled guffaw, from Heathcliff and Hareton, put the cope-stone on my rage and humiliation."

I thank Lockwood for being an insufferable little shit and letting these two have a laugh together 😊

What was Heathcliff’s final revenge supposed to be if he hadn’t grown tired or been haunted to death by his beloved before he could realize it? Disinheriting Cathy and Hareton? Burning the houses? He cares enough about money to rent out Thrushcross Grange, presumably he wouldn’t actually “annihilate his property” without some supernatural involvement.

What would be the purpose? I think the meaningful part of his revenge was having Hareton and Cathy as his grotesque little family and making them servants and miserable. I think he had already reached the apex of his revenge.

To me, the secret of appreciating "Wuthering Heights" is not to expect the characters to be likeable.
