In at least 150 words, describe the author’s use of foreshadowing and suspense in "The Cask of Amontillado." Use details from th
Lunna [17]

Answer:

<em>The Cask of Amontillado </em>is Edgar Allan Poe's short story. In the story, a man named Montresor decides to take revenge on his friend, Fortunato. He lures him into the catacombs and finally buries him alive.

Foreshadowing is a literary device, used by the authors to give us clues about what is going to happen later in the story. Poe employs this device multiple times throughout<em> the Cask of Amontillado</em>. For instance, when they walk through the catacombs, Fortunato starts coughing. Montresor expresses his concern for Fortunato's health, but Fortunato tells him not to worry, as he will not die of a cough.  Montresor replies: <em>"True-true."</em> He, indeed, knows that Fortunato will not die of a cough, but will be buried alive instead. Poe, in this line, uses verbal irony to foreshadow Fortunato's death which will happen later.

Another example of foreshadowing would be Fortunato's clothes. It is carnival time, and Fortunato is dressed as a jester (a clown). But he also acts as a clown in the story - a fool that will be manipulated by Montresor. As the story progresses, he gets drunk, makes silly remarks and perfectly resembles the clown. Fortunato's costume, therefore, foreshadows his naivety which will come to light later in the story.
