Edgar Allan Poe’s short story "The Cask of Amontillado" uses the literary devices of foreshadowing, symbolism, and irony to buil

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Foreshadowing. It gives a sense of prediction for what will happen in the future. Foreshadowing tells/ warns the readers for what might happen in the coming scenes.

This literary device provides the suspense to the plot, making the readers hooked to the story and clinging on to every single detail. The readers look forward to the plot to end, consumed with curiosity as to how the story will be completed. This foreshadowing piques the interest of the readers, keeping the flow of the plot unending and pushing it forward for the climax.

Explanation:

Edgar Allen Poe's short story "The Cask of Amontillado" tells the story of how a man took revenge on his friend for all the insults and silent sufferings he had endured from that man. Fortunato was killed by his 'friend' Montresor for being rude and for insulting him numerous times.

The author uses a lot of literary devices such as foreshadowing, symbolism, irony etc. The use of foreshadowing is most evident in this text where we as the readers, are privy to what the scenes will unfold. Foreshadowing provides a hint/ reference to something that will happen in the future.

Some instances of this foreshadowing is

1. first and foremost seen in the garb of the man himself. Fortunato had dressed himself as a fool, as a foreshadowing of his role in being made a fool by Montresor when he's fooled to his death.

2. Also, the very word "cask" in the title of the story seems to suggest the casket where the dead were kept to be buried.

3. Another such foreshadowing can be seen in the scene where Montresor readily agreed with Fortunato's claim that a mere cough will not kill him; that he will not die of a cough.

This shows the intended hint for what the future plot will unfold.

All the scenes that foreshadow the impending death of Fortunato made the readers hooked on the suspense, waiting to find out if he will indeed be killed, or when or how he will be killed. It gave a forward stance for the plot, further moving the plot into its intended course, at the same time capturing the interest of the readers.

Answer:

The living conditions of slaves in the antbellum American South, were some of the worst places for slaves across entire history.

*Living Conditions of Slaves: Housing *

Slaves were relocated in areas of the plantation for their living quarters. On some plantations the owners would provide the slaves with housing, on others the slaves had to build their own homes. Slaves that had to build their own houses tend to make them like the houses they had, had in Africa and they all had thatched roofs. Living conditions were cramped in with mostly as many as ten people sharing a hut.

*Living Conditions of Slaves; Food *

Sometimes they were given pans for cooking, but often they had to make their own food. The long hours they had to work in the fields meant that they had little free time for making things to improve their living conditions. Some slaves used a hollow out pumpkin shell to cook their food in.

Most plantation owners did not spend more money on food for their slaves than they had to and so the slaves lived on a diet of fatty meat and cornbread.

*Living Conditions of Slaves: Clothing *

Slaves would be given 1 pair of shoes and three items of underwear a year. (I don't know if this is true, so check up on that before you submit your "assignment" or whatever you need this for). Although these and other clothing would be provided by their owner, they were probably always the wrong size or shape for the person wearing it. ( made out of rough/loose materials in texture).

*Living Conditions of Slaves: Free Time *

Most slaves worked from sunrise to sunset. Some owners made their slaves work every day, others allowed slaves one day a month off and some allowed their slaves to have Sundays as a rest-day.

Slaves would spend their free time fixing their huts, making pots and pans and just chillin'. (also known as relaxing, xd). Some plantation owners allowed their slaves a tiny little plot area of land to grow things to supplement their diet.

Slaves weren't allowed to read or write, but some were allowed to go to church.

yeah just copy and paste, hope this helped. If not just send me a message and elaborate on what you would like me to explain.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:c. Need for relatedness

Explanation:

Apathy is usually associated with insufficient feeling or emotion that can causes us to be concerned about something.

Apathy occurs when we can't show our emotions. A person who is apathetic is likely to have less interest in social connections or any other connections with the world around them.

They may feel like everything is worthless because they don't feel adequate enough to fit in with the rest of other people.

Isabelle probably feels like she can't relate to any of the students around her and she may also feel like there is no need to try because she will fail anyway.
