Summary/Abstract: Emily Brontë’s novel Wuthering Heights is a singular presence in the context of the Victorian prose creations. One of the elements that gives it its special place is the setting in which it is placed. It is precisely this unparallelled reality of the setting resulting from the cosmic order under which it is placed and the role it is assigned to play in the novel both as geographical landscape and as spiritual incidence and its subsequent influence on the characters that this essay discusses.
