queer old man crash landing into a monotonous coastal village, in doing so the true colors of its inhabitants is shown as they quickly turn to abusing and caging the angel to satiate their covetous minds. Through the use of characterization and setting Marquez prevents the village from ever improving as they would rather “club him to death” than embrace him. In Marquez’s short story, the year unknown, the location unknown, what is known is that the coastal village that Pelayo resides in is a desolate

Unlike “The Raven’s” narrator, the narrator of “Annabel Lee” does not perform actions throughout the poem. Instead, his action is limited to the second and ending stanzas. He does, however, react emotionally to the action of the angels. In the second stanza, he “[loves] with a love that [is] more than love” and Annabel Lee loves the narrator back in the same fashion. Additionally, “she lived with no other thought/ Than to love and be loved by” the narrator. This is their soul purposes in life

poem Paradise Lost into two sides, one side under God representing good, and the other side under Satan representing evil and sin. Milton first introduced the reader to the character Satan, the representative of all evil, and his allegiance of fallen angels that aided in his revolt against God (Milton 35).
