Edgar Allan Poe and “The Cask of Amontillado” -- Real Life or Storytelling?
[ send me this essay ]
This 7 page report discusses the connections between Edgar Allan Poe’s story of “The Cask of Amontillado” and the actual life experiences of Poe. From the first Edgar Allan Poe story a person reads, the seed is planted that grows into the question of whether or not the author was as “twisted” as his stories. Historical accounts of the man and his life show that he was raised by the Allan family after his parents’ death and historical accounts present him as being brought up in a series of private schools and relative comfort. He was a gambler, a heavy drinker, and an alleged drug addict. He was what would have been referred to in the Victorian age as a “near-do-well.” No secondary sources.
