The direct characters in The Cask of Amontillado are Montresor (the first-person narrator) and the ironically-named Fortunato, his inadvertent enemy. No one else appears in the story, but reference is made to several indirect characters.Luchesi is a man known to both Montresor and Fortunato. He has a reputation as a connoisseur of wine and is therefore a rival to Fortunato in this respect. Fortunato contemptuously dismisses his expertise, but this may be mere bravado. Montresor uses repeated references to Luchesi as a form of reverse psychology to lure Fortunato into the vaultMontresor's disobedient servants are also mentioned. We do not know how many there are, but the fact that he has several makes us question his claim to be a ruined man. He has expressly told them to stay in the house and is cynically certain that this is the way to ensure their departureLady Fortunato is mentioned by her unfortunate husband. She will be waiting, in company, at the palazzo.

The theme is the importance of Machines in our life. Machines make many things easier and facilitate the work of the humans.
In the beginning, the poet informs about how the machines are produced and what kind of treatment they need. Afterwards, in the second and third stanzas, the machines explain how they can serve humanity. All the work what was done by the humans earlier is taken up by the machines at present. They pull, haul, push, lift, drive, print, plough, weave, heat, light, run, race, swim, fly, and dive. They can also see, hear, count, read and write like human beings. Even though machines are useful, they can also lead to big disasters, if they aren’t used in the right way. They have no emotions or feeling for anyone. In the last stanza, the dream of the “perfect machinery” suddenly seems to fade away. Machines aren’t miraculous creations. They are nothing more than the creations of the human brain.
