We discussed the symbolism of Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Masque of Red Death” as well as a few possible themes about what those symbols could lead to. One of those themes was about how when we sin through things like pride and defying God/nature/death, we suffer when the punishment comes due.
Please highlight at least three examples of HOW Prospero and his guests’ pride defies God/nature/death and then tell me how that example specifically ties into either God, nature, or death?
