| 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!!

Thank you, youtube for putting me on the
frontpage. Someone suggested I should write
subscribe in big letters on top of this video and
my channel and I would get tons of subscribers.
It's becoming more and more a race on here. To me
numbers don't matter, it's the people that do. I'm
really thankful that there are people out there
who watch my videos and if one or two enjoy them
it's even better. I'm especially happy because the
featured video has some of my friends in it. They
did a wonderful job on the poem, so feel free to
check out their channels and subscribe to them.
Enjoy the day,
Love Anna.
