"Alone" - Edgar Allan Poe Analysis (Taylen Valdez)

The poem "Alone" is shrouded by the theme of loneliness that echoes throughout the lines. The loneliness can be felt by the reader with the tone of the poem with lines such as, "My heart to joy at the same tone-- / And all I lov'd-- I lov'd alone--," (Poe, Lines 7-8) where, although stated obviously, the feeling and theme is evident. Poe writes of being lonely in childhood which carries on into the adulthood of the narrator and how there is no understanding of why the concept still lingers in the narrator's life later on. It is very possible the author wrote "Alone" because of actual childhood experience where he was, "--born to traveling actors in Boston on January 19th, 1809, but within three years both of his parents had died. Poe was taken in by a wealthy tobacco merchant -- while his brother and sister went to live with other families," (www.poemuseum.org).  This poem is relatively short compared to other works Poe has written, but conveys the point all the same. Many of the lines do not officially end, but rather maintain a flow of addition to build upon the meaning of loneliness intended. "Alone" is meant to have a personal connection to the audience and leave a lasting impression.

Allusion - a reference to a well-known person, place, event, literary work or work of art. The line, "(When the rest of Heaven was blue)," (Poe, Line 21) in the poem demonstrates the device with the use of Heaven, a concept that is universal in many other works and understood by the audience to leave a further imprint of the meaning of the poem on the reader.
Ambiguity - the intentional or unintentional expression of a word or idea that implies more than one meaning and usually leaves uncertainty in the reader. The poem itself can leave uncertainty if not understood correctly and certain lines in "Alone" aide the confusion, like, "My sorrow--I could not awaken / My heart to joy at the same tone--," (Poe, Lines 6-7).
Anaphora - the deliberate repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of several successive verses, clauses, or paragraphs. In the poem, many of the lines often start with the same word and/or phrase to add a further depth to the mental picture Poe is painting for the reader, as seen in these lines, "As others were--I have not seen / As others saw--I could not bring," (Poe, Lines 2-3).
Imagery - the descriptive language used in literature to recreate sensory experiences. The device is very obvious in the poem and utilized frequently throughout, imagery in the poem is key to deriving the meaning and an example is, "From the sun that 'round me roll'd / In its autumn tint of gold--," (Poe, Lines 15-16).
Juxtaposition - two contrasting elements side by side. The lines, "(When the rest of Heaven was blue) / Of a demon in my view--," (Poe, Lines 21-22) are the final impression left on the reader as they end the poem, each line connected thematically but an obvious contrast to the other with the opposition of 'demon' and 'Heaven'.
Rhyme - the sounds of accented vowels and all succeeding sounds are identical. "From the torrent, or the fountain-- / From the red cliff of the mountain--," (Poe, Lines 13-14) is an example of the device in the poem which uses the sounds of both 'fountain' and 'mountain' to connect the description that enhances the theme of the poem.

The theme of the poem, would be explore other unknown places, and you could find how it could be magical. Poe has included this in the poem by ," And every gentle air that dallied."( Poe, line 17) Edgar Allan Poe has shown how the palace was more than scary, it was adventurous and had more than scary parts. The structure behind the poem would be ballad. Edgar had shown his adventure more like a story, in a poem version. He wanted to have more imagery in it, than a regular poem. The meaning of the poem was, exploring and figuring our more stuff about the area, and describing the adventure he had. The historical context of the poem was based about his ancestors palace and how he explored it and found much more things about the palace than before.

Hyperbole - Hyperbole is an over exaggeration over the person or object.
"Once a fair and stately palace."(Poe, line 4 and 5) This quote shows that Poe was over exaggerating about how the palace seemed so pretty.
Imagery - Imagery is apart of figurative language. It is used to show description about the main topic. "Banners yellow, glorious, golden." (Poe, line 14 and 15) Poe uses imagery to have the audience react or to have a descriptive photo of the flag being shown. He wanted to show how glorious the flag was being shown.
Personification - Personification is giving an object a human characteristic. "Through two luminous windows saw spirits moving musically." (Poe, line 29-31) Poe has used this to show how the windows were "watching" the spirits moving gracefully. He wanted the poem to feel more interesting by giving it the personification.
Speculative - Engaged in, or expressing or based on conjecture rather than knowledge. Also means a high risk of loss. " A hideous throng rush out forever and laugh -  smile no more." (Poe, line  77) Poe was acknowledging the fact that he has lost something. He was noticing that he saw something in the palace and was going after it, but it suddenly has disappeared.
Apostrophe - Is where a speaker directly addresses an absent person or object, or idea. It is often used in poetry and in speeches to add emotional intensity. "But evil things, in robes of sorrow." (Poe, line 52) Poe recognizes  the fact that the sorrow was not appearing.
Antipathy - a deep-seated feeling of dislike; aversion. " To a discordant  melody; while like a ghastly rapid river." (Poe, line 74)  Poe uses this piece by feeling as if the melody was off key. Also how the the melody was not the best it was like a rushing river.

In the greenest of our valleys

By good angels tenanted,

Once a fair and stately palace—

Radiant palace—reared its head.

In the monarch Thought’s dominion,

It stood there!

Never seraph spread a pinion

Over fabric half so fair!

Banners yellow, glorious, golden,

On its roof did float and flow

(This—all this—was in the olden

Time long ago)

And every gentle air that dallied,

In that sweet day,

Along the ramparts plumed and pallid,

A wingèd odor went away.

Wanderers in that happy valley,

Through two luminous windows, saw

Spirits moving musically

To a lute’s well-tunèd law,

Round about a throne where, sitting,

Porphyrogene!

In state his glory well befitting,

The ruler of the realm was seen.

And all with pearl and ruby glowing

Was the fair palace door,

Through which came flowing, flowing, flowing

And sparkling evermore,

A troop of Echoes, whose sweet duty

Was but to sing,

In voices of surpassing beauty,

The wit and wisdom of their king.

But evil things, in robes of sorrow,

Assailed the monarch’s high estate;

(Ah, let us mourn!—for never morrow

Shall dawn upon him, desolate!)

And round about his home the glory

That blushed and bloomed

Is but a dim-remembered story

Of the old time entombed.

And travellers, now, within that valley,

Through the red-litten windows see

Vast forms that move fantastically

To a discordant melody;

While, like a ghastly rapid river,

Through the pale door

A hideous throng rush out forever,

And laugh—but smile no more.

From childhood’s hour I have not been

As others were—I have not seen

As others saw—I could not bring

My passions from a common spring—

From the same source I have not taken

My sorrow—I could not awaken

My heart to joy at the same tone—

And all I lov’d—I lov’d alone—

Then—in my childhood—in the dawn

Of a most stormy life—was drawn

From ev’ry depth of good and ill

The mystery which binds me still—

From the torrent, or the fountain—

From the red cliff of the mountain—

From the sun that ’round me roll’d

In its autumn tint of gold—

From the lightning in the sky

As it pass’d me flying by—

From the thunder, and the storm—

And the cloud that took the form

(When the rest of Heaven was blue)

Of a demon in my view—
