Текст Раскадровки

  • Surely, Poe's "The Raven" and "Leigeia" can be categorized as Romantic texts, don't you think?
  • Ehh, I'm not so sure. What evidence in the texts could prove that?
  • In "Leigeia," Poe says, "Yet her features were not of that regular mould which we have been falsely taught to worship in the classical labors of the heathen" in reference to a quote from Francis Bacon (751). This is a direct jab at enlightenment philosophy, something Romantic literature frequently countered.
  • Hmm. Those are compelling points indeed. But what about one of the central tenets of Romantic literature, the reverence for nature? Neither "The Raven" nor "Leigeia" contain as much overt admiration for the natural world as, say, the works of Emerson or Thoreau?
  • "The Raven" is also a testament to Romantic literary ideals, full of imaginative symbolism and emotive writing: "Eagerly I wished the morrow;—vainly I had sought to borrow / From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore..." (9-10).
  • You make some excellent arguments yourself! I am already beginning to rethink my initial stance on the grounds of what you've brought to light.
  • Ah, that's a great point! Definitely worthy of consideration. However, for what it's worth, the sheer emotional volume of both texts are too characteristically Romantic to be dismissed.
