Irony or revenge on the black cat, the cask of amontillado and the tell tale heart by Edgar Allen Poe

Irony or revenge on the black cat, the cask of amontillado and the tell tale heart by Edgar Allen Poe.

 For this assignment do a summary of each of Poe’s 3 tales: The Black Cat, The Cask of Amontillado & The Tell-Tale Heart. In your summaries summarize it from the point of view of Irony or Revenge. Do some research on the web to learn more about the features of Irony. The summary should be ½ a page each and MLA formatting. Begin with a formal introduction of each tale: For example: “Edgar Allan Poe’s tale, The Cask of Amontillado is an ironic story about a man who…” (Then describe the ironic details that resulted in the death of Fortunato). Keep in mind that this is a summary, so DO NOT use quotes (exception of no more than 3 words). The point is to give the reader 3 or 4 examples of irony or revenge taking place within the tale in your own words.
