What is the effect of the author's choice of the word loathsome rather than hateful in this sentence from The Count of Monte Cri

sto?
Two soldiers were accordingly sent for, and the inspector descended a stairway, so foul, so humid, so dark, as to be loathsome to sight, smell, and respiration.


It implies that the effects of the stairway are felt only by the inspector.

It suggests that the soldiers are used to the place and do not hate it.

It reveals that the unpleasant aspects of the stairway are manmade.

It stresses the disgusting, offensive nature of the stairway.

How does the narrator of the fall of the house of usher describe ushers own work of art
OverLord2011 [107]

The narrator from the house of Usher from Edagr Allan Poe, describes Usher's own work of art as:

D. as intense, ghastly, and inappropriate

here we have a quotation from the short story where we read the description of the painting:

A small picture presented the interior of an immensely long and rectangular vault or tunnel, with low walls, smooth, white, and without interruption or device. Certain accessory points of the design served well to convey the idea that this excavation lay at an exceeding depth below the surface of the earth. No outlet was observed in any portion of its vast extent, and no torch, or other artificial source of light was discernible; yet a flood of intense rays rolled throughout, and bathed the whole in a ghastly and inappropriate splendour.

Read this excerpt about the Vietnam War from "Ambush" by Tim O'Brien:
Novay_Z [31]
<span>The author uses a specific word choice and he artfully crafted his piece that affects the excerpt's tone by describing his feeling and his imagination accurately. You would feel that its as if you are the sufferer instead. That he is being haunted by the crimes of the past and he could not share it with his daughter yet because she is still so young.</span>
