In 5-10 sentences explain why Ambrose Bierce does not write his story, An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge, in chronological order
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer and Explanation:

"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" is a short story by American author Ambrose Bierce set during the Civil War. The main character, Peyton Farquhar, is tricked into trying to burn a bridge that would allow Union soldiers to cross into Confederate territory.

<u>Bierce does not narrate this story in chronological order. By doing that, he gets to trick readers, especially towards the end. In the first part of the story, Farquhar is already about to be hanged, having been accused of treason. However, the second part is a flashback. We get to know who Farquhar is and how he got tricked into trying to burn the bridge. In part three, the narrator deceives readers. It is time to actually hang Farquhar. But, while Bierce separated reality and flashback into two different parts before, he does not do that now. Reality and hallucinations are mixed. We are led to believe that the noose broke and that Farquhar was able to escape and return home. We are brought back to reality in a sudden, almost cruel way:</u>

<em>Peyton Farquhar was dead; his body, with a broken neck, swung gently from side to side beneath the timbers of the Owl Creek bridge.</em>

<u>Farquhar never escaped. He hallucinated in the brief moments it took him to die from hanging.</u>

It's time to write your narrative poem! What story will it tell? How will the action rise to a climax and then fall to a resolut
natita [175]
A clear narrative sequence means that your poem needs to have a beginning, middle, and end like a story. You'll need to tell what things happen first, next, and last. For your first time writing a narrative poem, you'd probably want to start by making a list of the things that happen so that you can be sure to include them and make sure that they are in order. Once you start writing the poem, you can refer to the list to make sure that you have everything.
Sensory language means language that expresses the five senses of sight, taste, sound, touch, and smell. For example you could describe the way the tiny bumps on a strawberry feel on your fingers or the sweet juiciness of its flavor. A blanket is soft and fluffy, while a brick is heavy and course. These descriptions add to the reader's ability to "see" or "feel" or "hear" etceteras what you are describing.
Figurative language is when you describe something using a metaphor or simile. Metaphor and simile compare two things. A metaphor calls one thing something else (The wind was a devil, blowing up my hair) and a simile is comparing two things using like or as (the wind was like the devil, blowing up my hair like a storm).
A verb in conditional mood is one that expresses something that might be or is hypothetical. Some examples include: John would love the way she taught the class if he was there OR Jennifer might have enjoyed that concert if she had kept her tickets.
