“The Raven” is a perfect example of how Poe uses the theme of death in his poems. Another poem in which the theme of death is used is the poem “Lenore.” In the very first line of the poem, Poe writes, “Ah broken is the golden bowl! the spirit flown forever!” (Poe, “Lenore”). The golden bowl is precious like life. If the bowl is broken it cannot possibly hold anything in it. Because the bowl is broken, life cannot possibly continue. The spirit that Poe is writing about is Lenore’s spirit. The…

1) On one gloomy night, while he’s tired, looking over many of his legends. When he almost falls asleep, he hears someone tapping at his door, almost like a gentle rapping, tapping on the door, “It’s a visitor,” he says to himself, tapping on my door. That is all it is and nothing more. 2) I remember it was cold in December; a shadow from the dying fire was a cast upon the floor. Tomorrow would come –with no result I would try to find.

The life of Edgar Allan Poe can best be described as depressed. In his poems and stories, someone always dies. His writings are about love ending in death. They start off happy then end up being dark and sadness. The author uses fairy tale archetypes and symbolism to create a gloomy mood that reveals a theme of death is inevitable.
