The environment around the castle was so gloomy. The narrator could easily summarize the whole picture of Usher's scary castle in the reflected image appeared on the surface of the mere, surrounding the road. Despite how nasty the narrator felt in the road, the letter usher sent to him made him feel more worry about his friend. The words in the letter seem to came out from a broken person who really needs help.
In the road the narrator kept thinking what did happen, that led to a mental disorder for usher, and what problems Usher passed through, to make him has this valetudinarianism (malady). The narrator remembered how Usher's family did not have a family branches. Usher's entire family lay in the direct line of descent; the family members used to marry from each other. Finally the narrator reached to the castle. He sifted (scrutinizing) the walls of the castle. Many clear crackings appeared on the castle, and they were unstoppable; such as the person who sins and reaches to a level were he can't stop sinning.]]> 2018-11-29 19:30:35 UTC https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309509237 hlopezmendoza100 https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309509558 Hailley Lopez

As the road starts to come to an end. The Usher castle starts to come insight the narrator explains the castle being spooky and being filled with horror. As the narrator is waking towards the castle, the narrator mentions the castle giving him an "insufferable gloom" that pervaded his spirit. The narrator then moves on to explain the castle of Usher. Explaining it being filled with cracks and having windows like eyes. The narrator then reveals that Roderick Usher is a good friend of his from his boyhood. He then explains that he hasn't seen Usher in a long time and the reason why he's there is because of Usher sending him a letter.

The letter informs the narrator of Usher's situation about how Usher has a mental disorder that oppresses him. The narrator receives this letter because he's Usher's best/only friend that can help him coop with his disorder.Which makes the narrator decide to stay for a "sojourn of some weeks". The narrator knows the Usher family has "had been noted, time out of mind, for a peculiar sensibility of temperament". The narrator also knows the Usher family has a deficiency.]]> 2018-11-29 19:31:25 UTC https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309509731 gmabdelmalak100 https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309510634 Atmosphere:
"With the first glimpse of the building, a sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit" (322).
In the first paragraph the narrator gives the reader a spooky atmosphere about the house of Usher, he explains how was the house so scary.

Values Feelings Over Logic:
"I had learned, too, that the stem of the Usher race, all time-honored as it was, that the entire family lay in the direct line of decent" (323).
So the narrator learned that the Usher family value feelings over logic, because the Usher family are always incesting within the same family, although that bring diseases and is bad for the family.]]> 2018-11-29 19:32:49 UTC https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309510634 hlopezmendoza100 https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309512757 ''There was an iciness, a sinking, sickening of the heart - unredeemed dreariness of thought, which no gooding of the imagination could tortue into aught of the sublime''( pg. 322)
EXPLANATION: The type of Romantic and Gothic Literature this quote uses is value feelings over logic because it explains feelings by using tones of threatening, humorous and lighthearted.
''Perhaps the eye of a scrunting observer might have discovered a barely perceptible fissure... until it become lost in the sullen waters of the tarn''( pg. 323)
EXPLANATION: The type of Romantic and Gothic literature the author uses is ''mysterious''. This is  a great example of using a mysterious and curious tone and most importantly a astrological tonality. ]]> 2018-11-29 19:36:24 UTC https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309512757 mnle106 https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309515592 2018-11-29 19:40:54 UTC https://padlet.com/gmabdelmalak100/iggukae3g6sj/wish/309515592
