Which two sentences contribute to the overall eerie mood of this excerpt from "The Cask of Amontillado" by Edgar Allan Poe?

English
1 answer:
patriot [66]4 years ago
4 0

When a person reads he/she feels a certain way driven by the words in the text, this is called mood and it has to do with word choice, imagery, and figures of speech that are used in a story. This helps create a distinct feeling for audiences. The two sentences which contribute to the overall eerie mood of this excerpt from Poe in "The Cask of Amontillado" are the two first beginning “The wine sparkled…” and "The nitre!" I said;”

By describing the environment surrounding Fortunado and Montressor as they walk down a long passage through catacombs and wine vaults, Poe sets the tone of  the scene.

Which logical fallacy, " any person who eats tuna fish is just as resposible for the tuna shortage as the big commercial fishers
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

C) genetic fallacy

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

A) fallacy of the single cause

B) reversing causal direction

C) genetic fallacy

D) slippery slope

This is an example of a genetic fallacy. A genetic fallacy is a fallacy or irrelevance. It is defined as a fallacy that is solely based on the origin of something rather than on the individual context of the situation. This typically transfers a good or bad reputation to the current context based on its origin. In this example, the speaker knows that the depletion of tuna is a consequence of overfishing. Therefore, it is true that the origin of the problem is the consumption of tuna. However, it is a fallacy to argue that any type of consumption is equally bad.
