This research paper: This is a 5 page paper discussing Homer Barron’s responsibility for his own fate in William Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily”. Homer Barron is responsible for his own fate in William Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily” mostly because he was responsible for his own actions within their relationship and he would have known how his actions affected her. Emily was known as an old fashioned woman who had been dominated by her father. When her father died, she did not acknowledge his death and she kept him in the house for some time. Homer, a charismatic Northern construction foreman, arrived in the town not long afterward and soon knew everyone in the town including Emily. Because of his knowledge of the town and the stories of Emily, he must have realized that not only was she vulnerable and eccentric but that because the townspeople found her unapproachable she was able to control whatever occurred within her own house. Homer took advantage of her loneliness and became overly confident of her tolerance of him and his actions. His confidence combined with her knowledge that he had no intention of marrying her was one of the main reasons he was responsible for his own fate. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
