1. A.) Irony/Sarcasm

This is an example of dramatic irony. The audience knows that Fortunato is headed towards his doom, but he does not. In this case, the character, Fortunato, expects something different than what is actually happening.

2. C.) Characterization

Characterization is the way the author reveals the character's traits and personality. In this example, Montressor is being characterized as vengeful. His motivation for killing Fortunato is based solely on the "injuries" Fortunato has dealt him. The reader also is suspect of the narrator when he says this. It seems as though Montressor may be over exaggerating and this makes him an unreliable, and possibly unstable, narrator.

mash [69]

<u>Answer:</u>

Lot of alliterative words are used in the bells by Poe. The words like time, tinkle, bells, tale of terrors, higher, frantic fire, clang and clash, tolling and knells are alliterative in nature. The author uses these alliterative sounds to make the poem more attractive in order to ensure that the readers are engrossed in the poem.

Is the fox stared an example of personification?
Paha777 [63]
No, it isn't. personification is giving human traits to non-humans. Foxes can already stare, but if you said "the fox spoke", that would be an example of personification.
