  1. I think Heathcliff is an archetype. He is a very rare character. Though he is a villain, but truly he is the most remarkable part of Wuthering Heights. I am in no position to label him as original, but definitely he is a masterpiece. You wont get such character potrayals in books often.

    Another, can be the love story of Heathcliff and Catherine. They are not like your usual lovers.They are a lot different from anyone else. Some people say they are representations of the Good and the Bad, where Heathcliff is the Bad. So actually they are the same person - manifestations of the same character, split in two. Its a rare phenomenon. Catherine at one place even proclaims that She IS Heathcliff. Their love is obsession and fanatism.

    Hope I helped!
