Composition

For this discussion you will need to read carefully the three short stories and the resource on
themes that are in the Resource section:
“The Cask of Amontillado” by Edgar Allan Poe
“Dark They Were and Golden-Eyed” by Ray Bradbury
“The Story of An Hour” by Kate Chopin
Theme-Examples and Devices by literarydevices. net
Initial Response: After you have read the stories, write a response that clearly states how the
theme, “true freedom can only be obtained when one sheds his/her confinements” is portrayed
in each story.
Use text examples to support your responses, and be sure to cite properly.
Note: to cite a video in an essay, use the screen name of the person who posted and the year.
In the case of this video, the internal citation would be (The Edge…2012).
