In "The Black Cat", by Edgar Allan Poe, the narrator's participation in the cat's death foreshadows <em>The narrator himself was going to be hanged as punishment for his crime.</em>

Foreshadow is a literary device, that consists of clues to suggest what is going to happen later in the story. In this short story, the narrator starts saying that he is about to be hanged the day after he wants to give a detailed description of the occurrences that led to his confinement. He himself is going to be hanged as punishment for his crimes, the same way in which he hanged Pluto, his first black cat.

One of the key ideas presented in the story "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry us the importance of sacrifice.

In this story, we encounter a young couple, Jim and Della, who are very short on money. However, the two love each other deeply, and want to give each other nice presents for Christmas. Without the means to buy these presents, each one of them has to sacrifice what they love most. Della sells her hair, while Jim sells his watch. However, when the two exchange the presents, they realize that Della's present was a chain for Jim's watch, while Jim's present was a set of combs for Della's hair.

The story shows that the real meaning of the gift is the sacrifice and thought that you put into it. A gift that is given with care and love is a good gift, regardless of its content.
