I really need help!! What makes the Wuthering heights movies more accessible to a modern audience?
The novel's narrator tells the story in the winter months of 1801 in a moor country in England. The actual tale and events contained in Wuthering Heights, however, spans across the time period of approximately 1778 through 1801 and is set in the same aforementioned moor country near a village called Gimmerton.The setting is important to the plot, characters, and conflicts of the novel as it is set in the Georgian era of British history and society differed greatly when held in comparison to the moral codes and laws of today. Marrying one's cousin was not considered 'wrong,' and this is critical in that Catherine Linton marries two of her cousins in the novel. Analyzing the book from an even more modern perspective, Heathcliff and Catherine are technically brother and sister, yet they love as lovers do. This too, is deemed as unnatural in today's age, however, it was not so for the time period in which Wuthering Heights is set.The setting is crucial, for as many things that are deemed unacceptable in today's world were extremely commonplace in that era. One must remember that as times change, literature changes as well; in reading a book such as Wuthering Heights, one must think as a reader from those times would.
At the time, some thought the passionate love depicted by Emily Bronte was inappropriate, and the novel was shunned. Its literary genius was only rediscovered decades later by modern scholars.

My guess is Modern Family was a top rated show and was routinely dubbed into Spanish to reach a fairly large audience here in the US and Mexico. Funny watching one of the earlier seasons where Luke's dialog was dubbed using a female voice. I think even Manny's was too. Listed as their Spanish voices were actors named Maggie and Juana.
Seamus Heaney produced a modern translation of Beowulf in 1999. His translation aimed to capture the epic's rhythm and storytelling style while making it more accessible to a contemporary audience.

Arthur Miller would say that a typical working man or woman would make the best tragic hero for a modern play and a modern audience.
Agamemnon remains relevant to a modern audience as it explores themes such as the consequences of hubris, the complexities of leadership, and the impact of war on individuals and society.
