Explanation:
In Emily Bronte’s novel “Wuthering Heights,” the character of Heathcliff is described as having dark features, including black hair and eyes. However, there is no indication in the text that he is of African descent or that he is black in a racial sense. Instead, his dark features are meant to convey his brooding and mysterious personality, which is a central aspect of his character throughout the novel. While some readers may interpret Heathcliff’s appearance as being indicative of his race, there is no textual evidence to support this interpretation.
