• As a verse narrative, the poem is characterized by its dramatic variation of tone, which starts from mournfulness, and then progresses to trepidation and jocularity, and eventually to despair by way of hysterical self-torture. • In spite of its completeness of plot as a verse narrative, it is also characterized by its highly symbolic trait, which frequently leaves the reader with a feeling that it is difficult to read, because of its lack of adequate suggestions of certain meanings.

很快我的心变得坚强；不再犹疑，不再彷徨， “先生，”我说，“或夫人，我求你多多包涵； 刚才我正睡意昏昏，而你来敲门又那么轻， 你来敲门又那么轻，轻轻叩击我的房门， 我差点以为没听见你”——说着我拉开门扇；—— 唯有黑夜，别无他般。

凝视着夜色幽幽，我站在门边惊惧良久， 疑惑中似乎梦见从前没人敢梦见的梦幻； 可那未被打破的寂静，没显示任何迹象。 “丽诺尔？”便是我嗫嚅念叨的唯一字眼， 我念叨“丽诺尔！”，回声把这名字轻轻送还， 唯此而已，别无他般。
体弱的维琴妮亚终究敌不过饥寒交迫，在一个寒冷的冬夜， 带着令人感动的爱去了。失去了爱妻，爱伦坡几乎崩溃了， 惟一支撑他的只有成功的信念了。在爱妻的坟墓旁，他强 忍着泪水和思念，拿着笔，一刻也不放下，他用尽一切气 力，投身于创作。从白天到夜晚，从夜晚到梦中，从梦中 又到白天……终于，使他写出了感人肺腑的《爱的称颂》。 爱伦坡终于迎来了成功。
4. The creation of work of art requires the utmost concentration and unity, as well as the most scrupulous use of words.

e‟s reputation was first made in France. Charles Baudelaire said that “Edgar Poe, who isn‟t much in America, must become a great man in France.”
The narrator remarks that his "friend" the raven will soon fly out of his life, just as "other friends have flown before“ along with his previous hopes. As if answering, the raven responds again with "Nevermore". The narrator is convinced that this single word, possibly learned from a previous owner with bad luck, is all that the bird can say.
The main theme of the poem is one of undying （永恒的） devotion. The narrator experiences a perverse conflict between desire to forget and desire to remember. He seems to get some pleasure from focusing on loss. The narrator assumes that the word "Nevermore" is the raven's "only stock and store", and yet he continues to ask it questions, knowing what the answer will be.
