Basically talking about his lost love, self-torture and about being consumed by his past. To me I think writing was Poe’s way of coping with his wife death ,because it provided him with his own insane characters with similar pain for him to deal with, as opposed to detraction from his own pain so that he could come with these much the same with his on life. The poem setting seems like it’s midnight in a dark room where the protagonist wife has past away and he is in a terrible sate of grief and misery and all he wants is to bring her back, but he can’t, and he knows this. Then with doubt and fear he locks himself up inside this dark room, filled with darkness and hopelessness in the middle of the night and while he’s alone by himself, he hears the raven who I thinks is his subconscious also death. He wants the raven to deliver Lenore to him or show him to her, but the raven only mocks him seems like and shows’ him how no one waits for you after death, you are all by yourself.
At the palace of Circe, where Odysseus and his men stopped along their journey, there a death occurred. Elpenor, who was among Odysseus’ men, became intoxicated and fell off of Circe’s roof, breaking his neck and therefor killing him. Odysseus spoke out in honor of him, “‘So I spoke, and the inward heart in them was broken. They sat down on the ground and lamented and tore their hair out, but there came no advantage to them for all their sorrowing. When we came down to our fast ship and the sand of the seashore, we sat down, sorrowful, and weeping big tears’” (book 10, 566-570).
I believe that is why the story is called “The Story of an Hour” the story is telling us, what had happened during the hour and what happen happened after the hour she finds out that he was a alive. She had her freedom, but soon after her freedom was taken away and she had died. The suspense of “After Twenty Years” was that it was a dark night and you couldn't see a thing. The story was about two men that are meeting again after twenty years of not seeing each other at all. The thing is that the Jimmy is the guy that Bob was talking about and that he had sent someone else to go arrest him, because Jimmy didn't want to arrest his friend.
After leaving Troy, Odysseus has many ships, and his men are loyal and respectful to him. As his journey progresses men start to fall away and by the end of his story all of his men have been killed and he is the only man that returns home from the long trip. Everett and his men were written differently than in Homers version. Having Pete, and Delmar O’ Donell as all of Everett’s crew, it is much different than the men Od. has in his group.

Stephanie Eshleman Mrs. Scherer English 102 3T The Infamous Deaths of Glory “She went down in all her glory,” is a common phrase heard when talking about the Titanic, and no, not the movie. The poem “Titanic” by David R. Slavitt tells the tale of this infamously famous ship as if it were some sort of fairy tale ending. Slavitt tries to soothe the harsh reality of the sinking by stating that “the cries on all sides must be a comfort” (13). To say that it is a comfort to die along with others is true, as many people want someone by their death beds, even third class steerage. However, in the anesthetic cold water the first class and some steerage were dying together (12).
He leaves the ship and departs into the darkness. The ending of this story is very believeable because from reading the novel, you could tell that even though the monster killed all of Victor's family, and through all of the evil actions that the monster made were only to get his creator to love him through his hideous looks and love him even though everybody else wouldn't, and when Victor died, all of the monster's TRUE feelings came
By heaven, I’ll have ’t./O God, Horatio, what a wounded name,/Things standing thus unknown, shall live behind me!/If thou didst ever hold me in thy heart/Absent thee from felicity a while,/And in this harsh world draw thy breath in pain/To tell my story” (Ham 5.2.308-315). Horatio tries to kill himself with the poisoned drink just like Gertrude did on accident but Hamlet orders him to stay alive specifically to tell the true story of what had happened those past nine months in Denmark. This shows exactly how well of a listener Horatio
