Question

Answer 1

The desire for revenge is all on the part of Heathcliff, who to begin with doesn't even have that much reason for it. He's a foundling whom Mr. Earnshaw takes in and brings up as his son, and it's his own violent, quarrelsome nature that turns some of the household against him. The person who hurts him most is Cathy, by marrying Edgar, and she's the one person he never tries to strike at. He marries Isabella and is cruel to her, when the only thing she's done to him is to fall in love with him, and he breaks Edgar's heart by forcing young Cathy into marriage with Linton. When Linton falls sick soon after the wedding (and Heaven only knows who performed that wedding!), Heathcliff doesn't bother to get help for him, because he has already made a will in Heathcliff's favor. He retaliates against Hindley's scorn of him by deliberately letting Hareton grow up ignorant and churlish. The fact that only after Heathcliff's death is the atmosphere cleansed so that young Cathy and Hareton can make a future together indicates just how destructive Heathcilff's desire for revenge was, since in the process of bringing down his enemies (in his mind) down, he ruined the lives of some innocent people and came close to ruining those of others.

Answer 2

Can you elaborate on that? Wuthering Heights is one of my favorite books, but I'm a little unclear on what your question means...
