Tonight i want to write about ''The Raven'' by Poe. It is 03:07 by Portuguese hour now and accompanied by some good music,I immersed so much into the poem and it really touched on my senses... Poe makes references to classical elements which is  noteworthy. But i will skip to the part that wounded my heart is the part it says; ^^Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.' ^^ and when i thought about this that it was only the'' Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door ''  just a bird , or a beast.. just a bird and nothing. How dramatic a scene Poe exhibits at this point which makes my blood run cold ! and further as I go on, `Other friends have flown before - On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.' Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'       So what?  You really have to be swimming in the deep darknesses of the endless and hopeless state of mind that you sit and find your own self expecting to make good deduc...

‘’Trust thyself:every heart vibrates to that iron string.Accept the place the divine Providence has found for you;the society of your contemporaries,the connexion of events.Great men have always done so and confided themselves childlike to the genius of their age,betraying their perception that the absolutely trustworthy was seated at their heart,working through their hands,predominating all their being.And we are now men,and must accept in the highest mind the same transcendent destiny; and not minors and invalids in a protected corner,not cowards fleeing before a revolution,but guides,redeemers,and benefactors,obeying the almighty effort,and advancing on Chaos and the Dark.       Throughout the Self-Reliance, Emerson asks for his audience to trust to themselves in a commanding way, which can also be perceived as a way of showing the gleam of the light.Man should trust himself because the power comes from the within not from the outside.The   iron...

Dying I heard a fly buzz when I died; The stillness round my form Was like the stillness in the air Between the heaves of storm. The eyes beside had wrung them dry, And breaths were gathering sure For that last onset, when the king Be witnessed in his power. I willed my keepsakes, signed away What portion of me I Could make assignable,-and then There interposed a fly, With blue, uncertain, stumbling buzz, Between the light and me; And then the windows failed, and then I could not see to see.   The title of the poem very much shows that it will unfold the steps of the act of dying. Initially, the noise of a fly appears by the time Dickinson dies. The only element about the noise which breaks the silence.The smilarity between the stillness of the air and the one around her body implicate the calm atmosphere presented by her between ''the heaves of storm''  The rest of the people suffer from the death of her ...
