Revenge is the theme inThe Cask of Amontillado.

One can also see pride as a theme as well, since it is Fortunato's pride and vanity in his ability as a wine connoisseur that leads him to his death. In addition, it can be said that Montresor has such pride in his family tradition of avenging every insult, that he is obsessed with it to the point where he has imagined insults from Fortunato just to have an excuse to get revenge.
