Identifying Mood
The atmosphere that the author creates using diction and imagery is known as the mood. The mood is not to be confused with the tone, which is the attitude of the author towards the subject. So, the mood is how the reader feels, and the tone is how the author feels.
Mood can be identified by looking at the specific words that the author uses and the connotation of these words. The connotation of the author's diction will create the atmosphere and thus the mood.
Examples of Mood
Mood can usually be described in a few words. For example, words like happy, relaxed, scary, and humorous can be used to describe the mood of some texts.
A more specific example can be seen in the story, "Tell-Tale Heart." In this story, Poe creates a scary, suspenseful mood using creepy diction and imagery.
