Answer:
Two themes in the poem “Richard Cory” are envy and irony. The residents of the town in which Richard Cory lives are envious of him, as shown in these lines:
In fine, we thought that he was everything
To make us wish that we were in his place.
These townspeople are poor and detest the lives they lead, so they envy Richard Cory, who is wealthy and cultured. They admire everything he does and wish that they were in his place. The irony in the poem is seen in the last two lines when Richard Cory shoots himself:
And Richard Cory, one calm summer night,
Went home and put a bullet through his head.
What was not apparent to the townspeople was that the man who seemed to have everything was so unhappy that he took his own life.
