Tragic categorized women belong to aphasia. And women in the tragedy are generally two kinds of extreme types:Angel and witch. In the human development history, women lose independence gradually, all depending on men from material to spirit. They are "family angels ", who are totally tamed. But a few women aren't totally tamed, who appear as the woman image of "half tamed". The fundamental difference between them and totally tamed women is that they have certain spiritual independence, although depending on men for material. Because of their own personality characteristic and failure of father and husband's discipline, the heroines of "Madame Bovary" and " Wuthering Heights" become typical "half tamed" women. Their twist of psychology causes their tragic life. The destiny of "half tamed" women are tragic, whose tragedy has certainty, complexity and particularity. Their tragic glamour mainly embodies in three respects such as destroyed vitality, disrupted world and unyielding soul.
