Heathcliff
Can a coherent psychological portrait be drawn of Heathcliff that would account for his character, his motives, his actions? Can you define or describe the complexities of Heathcliff's character?

It is hard to know if he would have been the man he turned into had he not been treated the way he was treated.
Heathcliff was always called evil and demonic by everyone and was treated so badly by his "siblings" I think they were so jealous of how their good father had adopted Healthcliff and made him part of the family and loved him! So they treated him so badly and having growing up with treatment and labels and having Catherine be so wishy-washy had a great influence on why Healthcliff became what he did. It is too bad but he couldn't rise above the injustices and so took his revenge on those around him in ways that hurt them the most.
