okay well what do you remeber about the raven?
i remember that after lenore died he was mourning but he was in his room until the raven came in and landed on a pillar thing, then he started talking to the bird yet the birds only response was "nevermore"
correct now how does poe describe the bird in the raven
he thinks he's evil
did you read the philosophy of composition?
no i don't know what that is?
me either lmao here look it up and then tell me about it can u do that?
If you read the story, it's really easy to figure out. Just read both The Raven, and then Philosophy of Composition. They're easy reads, and self explanatory.
