Edgar Allan Poe Literary Vocabulary

What makes you suspicious and scared? Suspicion is when something seems untrustworthy to you…you feel something is not quite right. Sometimes you have to evaluate whether a narrator is trustworthy or not. For example, in “The Tell- Tale Heart”, the narrator does not seem reliable and trustworthy because he is insane! Mood- If you are suspicious, it can change your mood, or how you FEEL…. Setting- the time/pace of a story- it can change the mood depending on what it is. For example, a haunted house setting will be more suspicious than an enchanted castle.

Points of View (POV) 1 st person POV- uses pronouns such as I, me, we, us, ours 2 nd person POV- refers for YOU to do something….usually directions 3 rd person POV- uses pronouns such as he, she, they, them, it, her, him….

2 Types of Conflict External Conflict- a problem with an outside force. Ex- problems between characters, problems with a force of nature, etc Internal Conflict- A problem with in one’s self…For example- Edgar Allan Poe had this….he was a very frustrated individual!

Suspense Suspense is created in the story to make a reader want to know what is going to happen next. It can be created by: a. Repeating words or phrases b. Emphasizing details with vivid descriptions c. Describing a characters anxiety or fears

Imagery Imagery is using words that appeal to one of your 5 senses- sight, hearing, taste, smelling, touching. For Example- The ice cold wind smelled of the horrible stench of a dead animal. This sentence appeal to both touch (Ice cold) and smell (dead animal stench)

Foreshadow, Flashback, Chronological Order Foreshadow- to present and indication of something that is going to happen Flashback- an interruption in a present scene that takes you back in time to something that has happened. Chronological Order- A sequence of events in a story…remember, flashbacks come first!
