The Cask Of Amontillado

.... that he wants to take revenge on Fortunato because "he ventured upon insult"(191). We also learn that he intends to go unpunished for this act of vengeance. The narrator informs us that he is going to continue to smile in Fortunato's face, but use the pride his victim has in wine to lure him into the catacombs to taste some of his non- existent amontillado. At this point, the reader knows the conflict will be one of man versus man. It is an external struggle because Fortunato and Montresor are in a life and death fight. However, the conflict is largely internal, because Montresor has a fierce hatred that Fortunato is unaware of. The narrative hook seems to occur when ....

.... unexpectedly throwing a ball at Tom Robinson. Tom’s only reaction was to catch the ball with his right arm.

Tom’s left hand is shriveled and totally useless. On the other side of the coin, Atticus shows the court that Mr. Ewell is not ambidextrous but is only right-handed. A second testimony that supports the opposite of the verdict, was the fact that Mr. Ewell never called a doctor after learning of Mayella’s injuries. Following the incident ....

.... Whenever Songlian feels the need to relieve her tension, she screams at Yan'er. Songlian's treatment towards her maid results in a bitter rivalry between the two and ultimately leads to the death of Yan'er.

So Songlian escapes real life by drinking. This is yet another example of Songlian's feeble attempt to e ....

.... soon, is only wounded by it, and drops it. But notice that he puts his fingers into his mouth, gets a little bit of it, and develops a taste that he will never forget.” Johnson believes “many psychic wounds in a man come because he touches his Christ nature, that is individuation process (process of integration and becoming whole), prematurely, can’t handle it doesn’t see it through, and is wounded by it (Johnson 9).” Johnson’s idea is somewhat universal; the majority of men can find a moment where the innocent veil of boyhood was pierced, or an event in that the ease of being gives way to struggle and conflict. In this sense, “all men are Fisher Kings. Ev ....
