∙ 9y agoIn "The Cask of Amontillado," one method of characterization used in Poe's short story is the use of clothing. There is a celebration going on in the city, and all are dressed in costume. Monstresor wears a black silk mask, and has a sweeping cloak, giving the impression of an executioner, or one who is prepared to sit in judgment. It also indicates someone whose motives and penchant for evil can be hidden.
