| Edgar Allan Poe "The Raven" Poem Animation Movie |
 |
Here is a virtual movie Edgar Allan Poe
reading his great poem "The Raven"
This recording taken from a public domain
audio website is qiute possibly my alltime
favourite reading of this most dark lunatic
frenzied poem.
Heres an excerpt of what the excellent
Wikipedia says about this most famous of
poems..
"The Raven" is a narrative poem by the
American writer Edgar Allan Poe, first
published in January 1845. It is noted for
its musicality, stylized language, and
supernatural atmosphere. It tells of a
talking raven's mysterious visit to a
distraught lover, tracing the latter's slow
descent into madness. The lover, often
identified as being a student,[1][2] is
lamenting the loss of his love, Lenore. The
raven, sitting on a bust of Pallas, seems to
further instigate his distress with its
constant repetition of the word, "Nevermore."
Throughout the poem, Poe makes allusions to
folklore and various classical works.
Poe claimed to have written the poem very
logically and methodically. His intention was
to create a poem that would appeal to both
critical and popular tastes, as he explains
in the follow-up essay: "The Philosophy of
Composition". The poem was inspired in part
by a talking raven in the novel Barnaby
Rudge: A Tale of the Riots of 'Eighty by
Charles Dickens.[3] Poe borrows the complex
rhythm and meter of Elizabeth Barrett's poem
"Lady Geraldine's Courtship".
The first publication of "The Raven" on
January 29, 1845, in the New York Evening
Mirror made Poe widely popular in his
lifetime. The poem was soon reprinted,
parodied, and illustrated. Though some
critics disagree about the value of the poem,
it remains one of the most famous poems ever
written"

| Edgar Allan Poe & Vincent Price: The Tell-Tale Heart (I) |
 |
I'm too far away to go and place flowers and
liquor in Edgar Allan Poe's tomb, in
Baltimore, US. But every january the 19th I
remember Poe in some way or another. This
time, I've chosen to add Vincent Price
impersonation of famous tale The Tell-tale
Heart (first act of his An Evening with Edgar
Allan Poe movie). When I was living in Spain,
I did the same tale -in spanish- for a live
audience on several occasions (Arnod Medvegia
was my nickname on those performings). I love
this tale. I love Vincet Price. And finally I
love Edgar Allan Poe. This is my homage to
both amazingly talented geniuses, combined
here again to give life to such a
masterpiece.
Happy birthday Edgar!!
