  • The Raven
    Mar 1 2025
    Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven” is one of the most iconic poems in American literature. First published on January 29, 1845, in The Evening Mirror(for which he was only paid $9), it brought Poe instant fame and established his reputation as a master of dark and macabre storytelling. Poe claimed in his essay, “The Philosophy of Composition” (1846), that he wrote “The Raven” through a logical and methodical process, aiming to evoke a specific emotional effect — melancholy. He chose a raven as the central symbol because of its ominous presence and association with death. The iconic refrain “Nevermore” was chosen for its sonorous and impactful effect and to this day remains a symbol of unrelenting despair. Some critics believe Poe’s writing of The Raven was influenced by his personal struggles, including his poverty and his wife Virginia’s battle with tuberculosis. This Naples Players Radio Theatre production features the vocal talents of Vic Caroli who narrates the poem. This audio file was recorded, mixed and mastered by Michael Troop.
