The Raven

The Raven is a truly classic tale of literature that I have studied many times. The allegory takes a man who is rather calm and has a great feeling of loss and makes him a frantic panicking man who is very grief stricken. The man continues to ask the Raven questions even though he knows the Raven will only say "Nevermore". This poem has a very basic rhyme scheme. This tale has a few different refernces tied into, such as the bust of Pallas or some bible references. The Raven starts off very slow and by the end of the tale is quite exciting and has the reader on the edge of their seat. I really enjoy Thr Raven everytime I read and look forward to discussing it in class.
