essay on allusion based off of the short story the tell tale heart
- Write an essay of 750-1000 words on the use of a single literary device (Allusion) used within one of the short story, “The Tell-tale Heart†by Edgar Allen Poe.
- Be sure to:
- Include an alphanumeric outline.
- Use MLA format.
- Include a Works Cited page.
- Create the essay with the understanding that this is not a book report. Don’t summarize the story, as that is only appropriate for a sentence or two in the introduction. Tell me how a literary device was used in the story.
- Cite examples from the story in support of your argument using proper MLA format (quotations for direct citations, as well as parenthetical references for both these and paraphrases).
