to catch the poor - infinitive

Catch is in the infinitive form because it is before to. An infinitive is when the main form of the verb is preceded by the word to. Similar to a main verb, it expresses an action.

covered with ancient artwork - participle

A participle phrase begins with a verb and often can include other modifiers. A participle is used as an adjective in the sentence. In this sentence, "covered with ancient artwork" is used to describe the walls.

A gerund is a verb that is used as a noun in a sentence. A gerund often ends in -ing. For example, Swimming is my favorite sport. In this sentence no one is actually doing the action of swimming. Swimming is a thing/sport in this sentence.

How is the Fall Of The House Of Usher" a Gothic tale?
Bumek [7]

Answer:

I have answered in the comment section of user's questions section

Explanation:

Thank you

“The Fall of the House of Usher” possesses the quintessential -features of the Gothic tale: a haunted house, dreary landscape, mysterious sickness, and doubled personality. For all its easily identifiable Gothic elements, however, part of the terror of this story is its vagueness. We cannot say for sure where in the world or exactly when the story takes place.

TemperatureBig avatar

Instead of standard narrative markers of place and time, Poe uses traditional Gothic elements such as inclement weather and a barren landscape. We are alone with the narrator in this haunted space, and neither we nor the -narrator know why.

TemperatureBig avatar

Although he is Roderick’s most intimate boyhood friend, the narrator apparently does not know much about him—like the basic fact that Roderick has a twin sister. Poe asks us to question the reasons both for Roderick’s decision to contact the narrator in this time of need and the bizarre tenacity of narrator’s response. While Poe provides the recognizable building blocks of the

TemperatureBig avatar

Gothic tale, he contrasts this standard form with a plot that is inexplicable, sudden, and full of unexpected disruptions. The story begins without complete explanation of the narrator’s motives for arriving at the house of Usher, and this ambiguity sets the tone for a plot that continually blurs the real and the fantastic. Poe creates a sensation of claustrophobia in this story.

TemperatureBig avatar

The narrator is mysteriously trapped by the lure of Roderick’s attraction, and he cannot escape until the house of Usher collapses completely. Characters cannot move and act freely in the house because of its structure, so it assumes a monstrous character of its own—the Gothic mastermind that controls the fate of its inhabitants.

TemperatureBig avatar

Poe, creates confusion between the living things and inanimate objects by doubling the physical house of Usher with the genetic family line of the Usher family, which he refers to as the house of Usher. Poe employs the word “house” metaphorically, but he also describes a real house.

TemperatureBig avatar

Not only does the narrator get trapped inside the mansion, but we learn also that this confinement describes the biological fate of the Usher family. The family has no enduring branches, so all genetic transmission has occurred incestuously within the domain of the house. The peasantry confuses the mansion with the family because the physical structure has effectively dictated the genetic patterns of the family.
