= Displacement =

There are many types of displacement, but the one present in Wuthering Heights is a social science displacement, a forced migration by persecution or violence, or the displacement of a person from one place to another one.

Exile
Exile is when someone is expelled from one's home without permission to return or being threatened with death or prison if one returns.

= ﻿Displacement of Psychology =

** Displacement ** in Freud's psychology is an unconscious defense mechanism whereby the mind redirects affects from an object felt to be dangerous or unacceptable to an object felt to be safe or acceptable. For instance, some people punch cushions when they are angry at friends; a college student may snap at his or her roommate when upset about an exam grade.

= **Exile in the 1800s** =

Exile in the 1800s in Europe was very common. It was common because of the radical ideas of the time. Communism was one of these ideas. Due to communism being so radical it made some of its supporters leave their countries. Revolutions around Europe were another cause of exile. One of these was the 1830 revolution in Poland which caused a large immigration to France.
