The aim of this paper is to develop teaching materials based on Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. The materials are targeted at university EFL learners. There are at least two problems to be solved: (1) the target learners might have difficulty understanding the literal meaning of the original text; (2) even if they literally understand the text, it might be hard for them to interpret it. To solve the second problem, the developed teaching materials show an interpretation based on Van Ghent (1953), which is usually categorized as New Criticism and, as such, is relatively easier to understand than interpretations based on other literary theories like New Historicism or Post Colonialism. Five passages, which were judged as important for the interpretation, were chosen from the original text with corresponding five passages from Pearson English Readers (2008). The retold text helps learners grasp the literal meaning of the original one. The developed teaching materials also contain 16 questions which, though answerable with literal understanding of the text, are deeply related to the interpretation presented.
