摘要：
Freedom seems to be a fantasy for Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights according to some critics. Yet, in the light of Jean-Paul Sartre's philosophical ideas on freedom, Heathcliff is always free and the whole novel delineates how a free man overcomes various obstacles through constant choices rather than how a man pursues freedom. This essay, employing Sartre's relevant theory, will outline Heathcliff's freedom, through which we might detect some hidden beauty of this controversial novel.
