Revenge is sweet and guilty torture. Montresor decided to involve revenge and guilt, and eventually found out that revenge had consumed him. This can be seen when Montresor understands the pain you feel when Fortunato begins to kill him. The sympathy Montresor felt is related to the crime of the murder he committed. These emotions led Montresor's perfect revenge plan over his entire life to guilt. Revenge has a thin line, when revenge no longer matches the crime, revenge can easily be done.
The two themes of Edgar Allan Poe's "story center" are guilty and insane. The narrator appeared to have been unable to deal with his sins, eventually acknowledging all to the police and weakening his "perfect crime". The reason for the narrator is also a problem. The reason why he killed the old man and his behavior in the story shows that the narrator is actually insane. "The core of the storytelling" is often called a complete criminal story. In this very common type, a male or female commits a crime that he or she normally believes is complete, but some small clues left the murderer away. This system has been used on old radio programs for years and then used on TV programs. It was used repeatedly in the TV "Alfred Hitchcock Presents", later used in a very successful show "Columbo" starring Peter Falk.
The most critical of this story is regret or lack of Montreso's crime against him or regret. Daniel Hoffman agrees that a lot of people believe that Monteresso is swallowed by guilt at his porport Paw Paw Paw Paw. "Is not Montresor to be bothered by this revenge? What else can he think about? A guilt feeling is not found and some initial readers say the story is unethical Instead of "Shadow Legend" of "White Wine Barrel" Ellen Poe of Bettina Napp, this is not "discount amount", judgmental power is working, sin is neither denying nor positive. Psychiatric patients do not distinguish between good and evil, and usually feel no regret or guilt.The problem is the central problem of "Amontillado's wooden barrels".
Exploring the influence of guilt on people is a common theme of slope's short stories, and "black cat" is no exception. The narrator was swallowed by guilt because of what he did. He insisted that he did not realize his guilt completely and he claimed that he was not bothered by what he did, but his guilt manifested in a subconscious manner. He saw a cat in the ruins of a house that was destroyed. Guilty also caused him to strike the exact part of the wall that buried his wife, it made the trapped cat cry, and warned the police of the narrator's wife's body. If the narrator is not embarrassed about murdering his wife, when police search for his house, he will remain calm and may escape the murder.
