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.
Literary devices are a major part of writing. A good author will use literary devices to bring the reader into what they are reading. When an author does this, the reader begins to feel and think as the characters feel and think. This is what Poe does to a reader when he whites a story. Poeâs use of anadiplosis, bomphiologia, chronographia, enargia and other literary devices helps the reader to embrace the characters. Poe uses a good amount of anadiplosis. This is when the last word or words in a sentence is used as the first word or words in the next sentence.
