the story is "The Cast of Amontillado" I need help pleaseee! Answer EACH of the following discussion questions using at least one quote from the story to support your point. Look specifically for verbal irony (saying one thing and meaning another), flashbacks (a move back in time to an earlier incident) and foreshadowing (a hint or allusion to events which will occur in the future). Has Fortunato really injured Montresor? Does the amontillado really exist? Is Montresor really insane?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

It is not a book. It is a short story.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I read what they gave me. I don't have the book @cvliboi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea thats what I thought..@e.mccormick

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

So, it is a discussion. What do you think? Also, if you had trouble with the written work there are some Youtubes of it, word for word, that are about 15 min long with amimation that can help explain the story.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't understand the story @e.mccormick

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Well, it uses language like impunity and redressed, so it takes a little wider vocabulary than every day language. What did you get from it?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

This may help. It is professionally acted, though their accents are poor... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoUPJId_AWk
