Post 7: Heroes

Emily Bronte's Wuthering Height portrays the protagonist, Heathcliff, as both an anti-hero and a romantic hero. Heathcliff is charismatic, charming, and larger than life only for Catherine while he is sadist and cruel to the rest of the world. He is also romantic because he strives to overcome his tortured childhood although it is through violence.
