Question

Read the statement below, then decide whether you agree or disagree with it. Be prepared to support your opinion with details from the story. Here's your discussion, the us of foreshadowing in "The Monkeys Paw" is so obvious that gives the events away before they happen

Answer 1

Answer:

I do not agree with the statement shown above.

Explanation:

You should already know that foreshadowing is a literary resource that allows the author to forward information about events that will happen later in history. This is done to leave the student instigated and anxious for the facts that compose the narrative to unfold.

 It is correct to say that in "The Monkeys Paw" we have a strong use of foreshadowing, mainly through the dark mood that announces that the story will not have a happy ending, but a sad, melancholy one, which will convey the feeling of loss and hopelessness. However, foreshadowing is not so strong as to reveal the events that will happen in history, that is, we know that they will be sad events, but we do not know what events will be and what will happen to them.
