SUMMARY:
Bierce's "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" identifies a young planter in northern Alabama during the American Civil War. He is a Confederate slave owner who risks it all to aid the Confederates with dire consequences. “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” is divided into three sections. Section I is in the present and past, as we learn about the bridge and why he's there. Section II is a flashback of where the political protagonist is coming from and what led to his demise. Section III brings us back to the present, where we see the consequences of Farquhar's (the protagonist) risky actions. What can we learn from war? Does it have a toll on us?
This 10th - 12th grade canonized work allows students to look at themselves, their life's journey, war, and our society.
