Explanation:
Heathcliff, the dark and brooding protagonist of Emily Bronte’s literary masterpiece “Wuthering Heights,” dies towards the end of the novel. However, the circumstances surrounding his death are not quite clear and leave room for interpretation.There are several theories as to how Heathcliff dies. Let’s begin with the most widely accepted one. Heart Failure: In Chapter 34, Heathcliff is found dead in his chamber by Nelly, the housekeeper. She notes that “he looked peaceable enough, lying in his coffin, with a locket of hair round his neck” (Chapter 34). It is suggested that Heathcliff died of natural causes, more specifically heart failure.
