This dichotomy of such a beautiful love dying creates such a dismal experience for the narrator that will get a reaction from the audience.
We are forced to deal with loss, but at times, even after moving on, there are dark moments where the thoughts of the loss are still overwhelming. The dark winter night sparks memories of his deceased love.
During this time, the raven interrupts his thoughts instead of giving him hope of seeing her in an afterlife. Once the raven has fled, he is left with no hope…. In consequence, the raven represents death. How is the death of a young woman romanticized within selected works of Edgar Allan Poe? In the eyes of Edgar Allan poe, death, especially that of a woman. Being a direct reaction to the rationalistic point of view of the Enlightenment and the strict forms of classical beauty, Romanticism is characterised by irrationalism, sentimentalism.
Edgar Allan Poe's life had a great influence on the topics and themes of many of his texts. Poe had the ability to turn his imagination into a bit of reality with only his thoughts. He emphasized on the use of horror, fear and romanticism in writings such as, The Raven, The Masque of the Red Death, and Annabel Lee to provide his readers with a reflection.
Edgar Allan Poe is often considered one of the most famous, influential writers of the 19th century, and even today he is still revered for his more famous works, which are still taught and studied in schools and universities around the United States. His work is considered to be heavily influenced by the many hardships he faced during his lifetime, which can be seen in almost all of his poems or short stories.

Much like the poems already mentioned, Tracy K. Smith blends elements of the gothic, nostalgia, romantic love, desire, loss, and transcendence through an out of body experience and leaves the reader wanting more at the end of this poem through the buildup of anticipation in memories.
The setting in this poem is very different from the other two poems. By beginning each poem with a twinge of nostalgia, the poems are usefully linked together in the romanticism genre even though they were written in different centuries. Their love was perfect because it is in the past and there is no one left to refute it. While this nostalgia quickly turns grotesque by the fact that he is sleeping beside a corpse, the speaker is longing to recapture his lost love by any means available to him.
By immediately placing this poem in the past as a memory, nostalgia is overwhelmingly present from the very start. The ending suggests a sense of remorse; the speaker did not understand his father when he was a child. This interpretation of the ending may delude the Gothicism in the body of the poem for some, yet I think that it simply adds another layer to a complex memory.
