Abstract
Emily Brontë’s only novel Wuthering Heights challenged the traditional literary conventions due to its exploration of themes of desire, violence, and complexity of human emotions. Despite the initial neglect, the novel has gained recognition as a timeless classic. The archetypal hero created by Lord Byron served as an inspiration for Heathcliff, the protagonist of Wuthering Heights. This paper aims to analyze Heathcliff’s character by drawing upon the characteristics associated with the Byronic hero. The Byronic hero is characterized by mystery surrounding his past and origin, his vengeful nature, and passionate love. All of these are the qualities that Heathcliff possesses. Heathcliff’s origins are unknown and he remains an outcast throughout the novel. He is marked by his ruthlessness and cruelty as he carries out his revenge, but he feels intense emotions and love for Catherine. Through a character study, this paper will compare Heathcliff to the Byronic hero to provide a more precise and multilayered portrayal of his character.
