That why he is a betrayer in my opinion, he lies to people and he always wants to be a two-faced person. One this Brutus did and seemed fake and not caring for others was being best friends with J.C and after wards talking horrible about him and how he thought J.C was too ambitious. Brutus will always talk about anyone behind their backs no matter who they were and I find that very inconsiderate and cruel. Even though Brutus knew that Ceasar was going to die he was planning on to helping to kill him. Meanwhile, When Brutus kills himself he shouts out words of peace to Caesars spirit “Caesar, you can rest now.
It is a tale of betrayal by both protagonist and antagonist. One of the best parts of this story is the long, long build-up to the final part, the tension and anticipation just get almost unbearable. In a way, this story is similar to the works of O. Henry, who really perfected the idea of the surprise ending. And Poe leaves us wondering whether the protagonist ultimately feels so happy after all with his revenge. In the story Edgar Allan Poe writes in first person point of view, from the perspective of Montresor, the diabolical narrator of this tale, who vows revenge against Fortunato.
Montresor is a dangerous and evil person in The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allen Poe. In this short story, Montresor is sensitive, trickey, and evil. Montresor is sensitive because he is going to kill Fortunato because he insulted him. In the story, Poe also shows us through the indirect characterization methods of Montresor’s own actions, words, and looks. When Montresor is ready to go to the catacomb with Fortunato, he puts “on a mask of black silk” and wraps himself up in “a roquelaire.” He wears the mask and the roquelaire because it hides his identity.
Edgar Allen Poe is a writer and poet who, even in his own time, is highly recognized for his bizarre and fascinating stories. Most of his pieces involve death and murder, and they also question the character’s sanity. Many of his stories have been turned into movies and his great work has inspired many modern authors. One author in particular is Stephen King. Mr. King has won numerous awards for his work and is considered one of the greatest writers alive today.
I mean, I knew she was a manipulative bitch, I just thought she may have still had some feelings towards me. As I arrested the serpent for capital treason, I remembered the letter and called upon the helpful stranger who had opened my eyes to everybody’s treachery. Dear, Edgar was revealed to be loyal and dignified and I was very sorry that I had ever thought worse of him. I had no sympathy towards my sister’s and my wife’s death. They were evil and so were their motives.
Although Romeos thirst for revenge was satisfied the consequences were dire. “And for that offence immediately we do exile him hence. I have an interest in your hearts' proceeding. My blood for your rude brawls doth lie a-bleeding.” In this quote Prince delivers Romeos sentencing which is assisted by emotive language to allow the audience to relate to how the Prince feels and brings the audience to the realisation that disobeying authority can have negative effects more than just one
Do you believe in eye for an eye, better known as revenge? How about second chances, mercy or forgiveness for anyone, regardless of any wrongs they have committed? In the play and story of “Romeo and Juliet” revenge and hatred are present in many places, the most memorable and prominent being the deaths of Mercutio and Tybalt. A quote that comes to mine from the world renowned and cherished philosopher Confucius, “When going on a journey for revenge, you must dig two graves, one for your victim, and one for yourself.” Louis L’Amour, “A wise man fights to win, but he is twice a fool who has no plan for possible defeat”. This relates to Tybalt starting the fight because he fights and kills Mercutio but has no plan for defeat when fighting with Benvolio; meaning he didn’t think of the thrashing of himself after the possible fight.
Revenge is a scary thing! Take Edgar Allen Poe’s ‘The Cask of Amontiado’ for example. In the story, Montresor, a cynical, yet organized man, seeks revenge upon Fortunado, an arrogant wine enthusiast, because, before the story started, Fortunado insulted him. Apparently, the insult was so harsh that it drove Montresor to homicide, because he devised an intricate plan to exterminate Fortunado in the harshest way possible. Due to the fact that Montresor is cunning, vengeful, and a good talker, he is able to successfully murder Fortunado without getting caught.
