Perhaps Poe's most famous work, "The Raven" was first published in 1845 in the New York Evening Mirror. Known for its tight rhymes and rhythm and the repetitive response given by the eponymous raven - "nevermore" - the poem focuses on that raven and a forlorn man who is distraught over his lost lover, Lenore.

This is a story from the Chilling Ghost Stories collection. The Raven, by Edgar Allan Poe, tells of a talking raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover, tracing the man's slow fall into madness. First published in January 1845, the poem is often noted for its musicality, stylized language, and supernatural atmosphere.

Drum-Taps is a collection of poetry written by Walt Whitman during the American Civil War and first published in 1865. Drum-Taps contains poems that bear witness to the violence of war.

"Annabel Lee" tells the story of young love cut short by tragedy. As the speaker (often assumed to be based on Poe himself, whose young wife died shortly before he wrote this poem) discusses his relationship with the now-deceased Annabel Lee, he presents the love between them as pure, eternal, and all-conquering. The love between the speaker and Annabel Lee may have been short-lived, but it remains too powerful to be defeated, even by death. Through describing this intensely idealized love, the poem argues that love is the strongest force on earth.

A classic poem from acclaimed author Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Grief sometimes comes at Christmas. We may believe there is no hope for happiness again on the day of Christmas bells and gifts, but in the midst of this grief there is the birth of hope. When something is lost - something new may be found. Not easy, but universally true.

A classic poem written to mirror the pain of the loss of romance. There is no remedy. There seems no hope. The anguish comes through loud and clear in this piece, written by William Hope Hodgson and narrated by Glenn Hascall.

Alter Schulstoff spannend interpretiert. Würden Sie von einer Klippe springen, um einen goldenen Becher aus den Tiefen des tobenden Meeres zu bergen?

It’s a dark and stormy night, and “The Raven”, read by award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti, transports us to a lonely chamber illuminated by firelight. The inhabitant who becomes the narrator hears a gentle tapping at the chamber door. The tapping is a raven who speaks one word, “Nevermore."

Die Kraniche des Ibykus ist eine Ballade von Friedrich Schiller aus dem Jahr 1797, die im 6. Jh. v. Chr. spielt. Die Ballade wurde erstmals in Schillers Musenalmanach für das Jahr 1798 herausgegeben. Die Ballade beruht, wie bei Schiller oft, auf einem tatsächlichen historischen Geschehen: der Ermordung des Dichters Ibykos.

In einer Bataille (Die Schlacht von einem Offizier) ist eine 1782 erschienene Ballade, Auszug: Schwer und dumpfig, Eine Wetterwolke, Durch die grüne Ebne schwankt der Marsch. Zum wilden eisernen Würfelspiel Streckt sich unabsehlich das Gefilde. Blicke kriechen niederwärts, An die Rippen pocht das Männerherz, Vorüber an hohlen Todtengesichtern Niederjagt die Front der Major: Halt! Und Regimenter fesselt das starre Kommando.

Die Pest (Eine Phantasie): Gräßlich preisen Gottes Kraft Pestilenzen, würgende Seuchen, Die mit der grausen Brüderschaft Durchs öde Tal der Grabnacht schleichen.

Eine der Klassiker aus der Feder von Friedrich Schiller. "Sieh da! Sieh da, Timotheus, die Kraniche des Ibykus!" Schillers Rache-Ballade in der Interpretation von Mathieu Carrière. Ein Erlebnis.
