Masque Of The Red Death :: essays research papers

In "The fancy dress of the Red goal", Poe leads one event into another often. He uses oftentimes symbolism, and in the paragraphs below, I will show you it. In the first equate of paragraphs however, I will summarize the plot and state the theme.In this plot, Poe begins by talking about(predicate) the Red Death, basically setting the stage for after events in the story. Then, he talks about Prince Prospero, which tells the reader that Prospero and the Red Death will have a conflict later in the story. Next, Poe gives a short summary of the setting, and likewise mentions that the "Red Death" was not there. afterwards this, Poe gives a description of the rooms. The first room had blue ornaments and windows. Poe then makes apiece room darker until he gets to the seventh, which is black. This shows that cobblers last is coming to Prospero. Also, in the seventh room, the windows be blood red, which overly shows that the "Red Death" is coming. Also, the ebony time keeps on ticking, which is slowly setting up the conflict, Prince Prospero vs. "The Red Death." Also, the color of the wood is also symbolic. Ebony is black, so again death is symbolized. At the end, or conclusion, the clock strikes 12, and "The Red Death" makes its appearance, and kills Prospero. In the plot, I believe that the talking about the Red Death and Prospero is the introduction, because it introduced the two big influences in the story. I also think that the descriptions of the rooms is the rising action, because it gives the setting for the conflict. The conflict is Prospero trying to rid of the Red Death, which is man vs. nature.The falling action in the story is when Prospero is caught by the Red Death, and the conclusion is that he is dead.The theme of the story is that you cannot escape death no matter how hard
