Heathcliff is a fictional character in the novel Wuthering Heights by Emily

Bront?

. Owing to the novel's enduring fame and popularity, he is often

regarded as an archetype of the tortured Romantic Byronic hero whose

all-consuming passions destroy both himself and those around him. Heathcliff

can also be viewed as a reflection and product of his psychological past: the

abuse, neglect and scorn of those with whom he grows up render him abusive,

early life that show that he was an angry and sometimes malicious individual

from the beginning; again, these tend to be glossed over in the popular

imagination). His complicated, mesmerising and altogether bizarre nature

makes him a rare character, with components of both the hero and the

anti-hero.
