Short stories and novels typically involve these elements the most often. Although I will say, nothing is quite as creepy as a well-written horror/suspense poem.

In what ways do Macbeths strengths contribute to his downfall?
sineoko [7]
Macbeth's strengths contribute to his downfalls because he was once honorable and strong. He let his curiosity get the best of him and as time over goes you see that he is conflicted between his good traits and his bad ones. So you see his honor slowly fades away. Macbeth (in the beginning) wants to do good but his wife pushes him into an evil monster and transforms him into an evil being.

Why did Chopin choose to communicate so much of her theme, or message, through the literary device of irony?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

<em>Chopin chooses irony as it added profundity to the story and made an immense impact on the readers.</em>

Explanation:

Kate Chopin wrote The Story of an Hour. She used irony throughout this short narration to make insignificant events appear important.

<em><u>For example</u></em>, Mrs Mallard is refereed to have a troubled heart. This was done to exaggerate her behavior regarding different things.  At another incident, Mrs Mallard is described to experience sudden, wild abandonment. This too is a perfect example of irony and symbolism portrayed by the author to make everything appear more heightened than usual.

What is the author's purpose for using a black spot on
vaieri [72.5K]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

What is the author's purpose for using a black spot on the paper?

Read the passage from "The Lottery."

Bill Hutchinson went over to his wife and forced the slip of paper out of her hand. It had a black spot on it, the black spot Mr. Summers had made the night before with the heavy pencil in the coal-company office. Bill Hutchinson held it up, and there was a stir in the crowd.

O to represent the darkness of death

to maintain the tradition of the lottery

O to enhance the mystery of the lottery

O to represent the horror of disobedience

Answer:

O to enhance the mystery of the lottery

Explanation:

The author presents the black spot on the paper as a way to convey a mysterious sensation to the reader. This is because the reader does not understand what this black spot represents, but understands that it is not a good and fun thing. In this way the reader begins to doubt the nature of the lottery and what it refers to. In this case, the author manages to show through the black spot on the paper, the mystery that the lottery carries, thus imposing a suspense in the plot.
