-Two thoughts comments or ideas about the setting
-Long time ago in Italy (early ages, still had servants)
-They had catacombs - underground cemetery (where Montresor buried Fortunato)

I think that the setting made the story flow well and it gave a very eerie feel to the story. The setting he chose went perfectly with the story that he wrote.
-Three thoughts comments about Poe’s voice. One comment must involve diction, and one comment must involve syntax.
-His voice went along with the setting because he sort of talked in an ancient way by using many words that most people wouldn't be sure what's going on (it took a few times to really understand what he was saying and it was a lot to think about)
-The choice of words/diction went well with the way this story went and how it was told
-The sentence structure/syntax was interesting because every sentence said a lot in it and it took a little while to completely comprehend what each sentence is saying/means
-What do you make of Montresor’s MOTIVE for seeking revenge on Fortunato?
-The reason that Montresor seeked revenge on Fortunato was because he was fed up with Fortunato thinking that he could insult him all that he wanted and possibly even thinking that he was better than Montresor - Fortunato treated him poorly.
-What do you make of Montresor’s METHOD of seeking revenge on Fortunato?
-I think that his method of seeking revenge was very well thought out and Montresor planned everything down to making sure that the servants were gone so that no one would hear Fortunato yell. It was also interesting and very smart the way that he lured him into the catacomb by telling him that he had a dried sherry for him to test but when Fortunato said no at first then Montresor said he would go and get Luchesi (which then made Fortunato change his mind)
-I think that its really interesting how he chained him up and built a wall around Fortunato
