Major Works: Poetry: The Raven 叙述了一位经受失亲之痛的男子在孤苦无奈 心灰意冷的深夜与一只乌鸦邂逅的故事 基调凄怆疑惧 源于不可逆转的绝望 随着乌鸦一声声“永不复生”而加深 直至绝望到无以复加的终行 “永不复生”共重复了11次 它是乌鸦唯一的话语 既是它的名字 也是它对作者每一次询问的回答 听起来既答非所问 又觉得非常应景 它把一幕原本荒诞的对话推向了对生存价值的哲理叙述 人至爱的一切不正像乌鸦聒噪的那样 一旦逝去便永不复生吗？  12月的一个深夜 又黑又冷 这是叙述者凄苦难耐的心理写照 正是这种心境引来了乌鸦 它枯立在指挥女神的塑像上 一次次地传达着冥界的讯息 一次次地用沙哑刺耳的“永不复生”的字眼戳啄着叙述者业已破碎的心 使他的灵魂沉入低徊飘荡的阴影之中 To Helen Helen thy beauty is to me Like those Nicean barks of yore That gently oer a perfumed sea The weary wayworn wanderer bore To his own native shore. On desperate seas long wont to roam Thy hyacinth hair thy classic face Thy Naiad airs have brought me home To the glory that was Greece And the grandeur that was Rome. Lo! in yon brilliant window-niche How statue-like I see thee stand The agate lamp within thy hand! Ah Psyche from the regions which Are Holy Land! 海伦， 你的美对于我犹如尼萨的船舸， 在往昔， 它们滑过芬芳的海波， 把漂泊者从倦人的旅羁载回故国的陆地。 经历了海风多次的吹拂—— 你那风信子般的美发， 你典雅的脸庞， 水仙女的风姿， 带我回到希腊的熠熠光华和古罗马的气魄。 看! 在一个华美的窗龛你犹如雕像那样伫立， 玛瑙明灯擎在手里！ 啊，赛琪，你来自彼岸那不可及的圣地！  Short stories 1 MS.
