How does Poe's use of unreliable first-person narrators affect our reception of his stories (refer to at least 2-3 stories)? In general, Poe uses first-person viewpoints in stories such as The Cask of Amontillado, The Tell-Tale Heart, and Ligeia because the subjectivity inherent in a first-person account emphasizes human fallibility while adding a layer of confusion and darkness to the narration.
This allows the reader or audience to see the point of view (including opinions, thoughts, and feelings) only of the narrator, and no other characters. In some stories, first-person narrators may refer to information they have heard from the other characters, in order to try to deliver a larger point of view.he narrators of written works explicitly refer to themselves using variations of I (the first-person singular pronoun) and/or we (the first-person plural pronoun), typically as well as other characters.
