In "The Scarlet Ibis," the author uses literary devices such as symbolism (the scarlet ibis representing Doodle's vulnerability and mortality), foreshadowing (hints at the tragic ending through descriptions of Doodle's fragility and the storm approaching), and imagery (descriptions of the natural setting reflecting the mood and themes of the story) to convey themes of pride, redemption, and the consequences of pushing others beyond their limits. These devices help readers understand the deeper meaning behind the characters' actions and the story's emotional impact.
