Louise Erdrich uses foreshadowing in the short story, The Red Convertible. Foreshadowing can be a warning that an event that may occur and this is exactly how the author uses foreshadowing in the story.

Suspense is shown in various different places in the short story A Sound of Thunder. Ray Bradbury does a very well job of using suspense. As the reader, there were many places in the story where readers would have to stop and ask what will happen next?

Chickamauga uses imagery throughout the text to visual the horror story in a way for the readers to visualize the story better. There are numerous examples in the text where the author uses imagery.

In the narrative about Frederick Douglass's life the theme of fear is shown quite often. In the text, fear is shown in the eyes of more than only Frederick Douglass.

Suspense is first shown when the hunters hear the sound of thunder. They begin their journey and suddenly the suspense begins "The jungle was wide and full of twitterings, rustlings, murmurs, and sighs. Suddenly it all ceased, as if someone had shut a door. A sound of thunder" (Bradbury n.p.). The sound that the hunters hear is actually the sound of the Tyrannosaurus Rex stomping through the forest.

After the hunters have seen the Tyrannosaurus Rex the author continues to add more suspense. "'Get me out of here. This time, I figured wrong. This is too much for me to get a hold of'" (Bradbury n.p.). Suddenly, the others don't want Eckles to run but he has different plans. "He took a few steps, blinking, shuffling" (Bradbury n.p.). The suspense is built more and the hunters wonder where Eckles has gone, and if he has wondered off of the path.

The suspense continues once Travis has discovered that Eckles did not stay on the path as they were told to. Eckles wanted a second chance to start over, but Travis had other plans in mind. "Travis shifts his rifle, click the safety catch, and raise the weapon. There was a sound of thunder" (Bradbury n.p.).

Right away in the story the author uses foreshadowing. The first paragraph is an important part of the story through to the end. The following was used for foreshadowing,

"We owned it together until his boots filled with water on a windy night and he bought out my share" (Edrich 1). This quote explains the relationship of the two brothers and how their relationship ends one night down in the river. This was very direct foreshadowing to what was doing to eventually happen to Henry.

Another example of foreshadowing was used referring to the red convertible the brothers bought together. The two first saw the car and were examining it. They both had their thoughts about the car. "That car reposed, calm and gleaming, a FOR SALE sign in its left front window. (Erdrich 1). Reposed can be used for a funeral term. This was foreshadowing to Henry dying and the convertible being pushed by Lyman. Lyman sent the convertible in to die with Henry.

Imagery is used all over in the story. Examples of imagery come up right away in the text. The imagery shown gave an image in my head to see what the child was going through. First, the boy is very scared. "Calling with his inarticulate cries for his mother, weeping, stumbling, his tender skin cruelly torn by brambles, his little heart beating hard with terror" (Bierce n.p.). This imagery gives an image of what the child is going through and how horrific it truly is for him being alone.

The imagery continues to the end of the story where the child's house burns down. "The fire beyond the belt of woods on the farther side of the creek, reflected to earth from the canopy of its own smoke, was not suffusing the whole landscape" (Bierce n.p.). In that quote readers can see the image of the whole house burning to the ground and the smoke surrounding the whole land around the house. The imagery makes the text almost come to life and seem real.

Fear is shown in different ways in this story. Fear is shown with slavery throughout the whole story. Slaves were not given much. "I have no accurate knowledge of my age, never have seen any authentic record containing it" (Douglass 1). That is one example of things that were ripped right from slaves.

There are more examples of fear in the slaves from things they did not get or know. Slaves were always wondering why their privileges were taken from them. "The white children could tell their ages" (Douglass 1). The slaves wanted to be equal to them and not have all of their freedom of simple things like their ages taken away from them.

In the story, fear is shown when Frederick watches his Aunt Hester get whipped. This is very scary for him watching something horrific happen to his aunt. "I was so terrified and horror-stricken at the sight, that I hid myself in a closet, and dared not to venture out till long after the bloody transaction was over" (Douglass 6). This was very scary for Frederick and he was changed from this event. No one should ever have to watch something like that happen to their own aunt. Frederick was full of fear, and the text showed it.

The four elements I have chosen have done well in the writing of war stories. Suspense, foreshadowing, imagery, and fear are the four elements I had in my project. Suspense was good for building up the stories to keep the reader interested. Foreshadowing had the reader thinking. Imagery gave readers an image in their head to almost put themselves into the story. Fear was great for showing how bad some times were in the war and how awful it did get. Imagery showed the war in a more vivid way. All four of these elements helped in telling and writing the war stories.
