本の内容
Picture a quiet room at midnight in the bleak December. A man sits over old books, worn out by grief, when a soft tapping comes at his chamber door. He opens it and finds only darkness. Then he opens the window, and something strange steps in.
This is The Raven, an eighteen-stanza poem by Edgar Allan Poe, first printed in 1845. It made him the most prominent author in America for a time. One man, one bird, and the memory of a woman named Lenore fill its whole drama. You get the story scene by scene, with its symbols explained and the sound that makes it stick in the ear.

A Midnight Tapping Interrupts a Grieving Reader
The poem begins at midnight, in the bleak December, with a man who cannot rest. He sits alone, weary in body and low in spirit, over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore. He is nearly napping when a gentle tapping starts, as if someone is softly rapping at his chamber door. Each dying ember in the fireplace throws its ghost upon the floor.
He hoped the books would bring surcease of sorrow, relief from his grief for Lenore. She is a rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore. Here on earth she is nameless for evermore. The books fail him, and he wishes only for the morning.
Then the rustling of each purple curtain fills him with fantastic terrors never felt before. To still his beating heart, he repeats a plain explanation. Some visitor is entreating entrance at his chamber door, and that is all. He opens the door wide and finds only darkness. He whispers a single word, Lenore, and an echo murmurs it back to him.
The tapping comes again, louder, now at the window lattice. He decides it must be the wind and goes to see. A sound comes, a sensible guess follows, a check is made, and the emptiness only deepens the dread. A quiet room, a sound at night and a lost love are enough to set everything moving.

『The Raven』についての質問
What is The Raven about?
A grieving man sits alone at midnight in December, mourning his lost Lenore. A raven enters his room, perches above his door and answers his questions with a single word, which draws him deeper into sorrow.
What does the raven symbolize in the poem?
Readers have seen it as Memory, mourning and hopelessness made visible. Some see an omen from the underworld, and others see the speaker's own mind, since the bird only repeats one word he can read in many ways.
Who is Lenore in The Raven?
Lenore is the woman the speaker has lost. He calls her rare and radiant and says the angels name her Lenore. She never appears, but her memory is what drives his questions and his grief.
When was The Raven written and published?
Poe published it in 1845 in the American Review, at first under the name Quarles. It was reprinted soon after and brought him wide fame. The poem was gathered the same year in a book called The Raven and Other Poems.
Why is The Raven so easy to remember?
Its beat is steady, its rhymes come inside the lines as well as at the ends, and its refrain returns in almost every stanza. Reading it aloud makes the sound and the mood easy to follow and hold.
