The Mystic World through Poe’s

The existence of literature is to express hu hu small-arm race and human beings emotions in or through words. People squirt feel true and unfeigned human nature through literature. Give a better opening statement about the wonders of literature Furthermore, people can touch the mystic (not permit term) world that is beyond their imaginations by leading literary works. The Tell- Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe is a good example for people to look deeply into humanity (why is it a good example?).The short story was number 1 published in James Russell Lowells The Pioneer in January, 1843, and it appeared again in The Broadway ledger on August 26, 1845. The story describes the emotions and thoughts of a mad man who killed the overaged man with the brutal eye. The story is plain and simple, yet it is able to leaven and pique the readers interest because of the use of symbols and excellent prose. By reading the story, we could see the dark side of humanity, and how it forms in the human mindThe aspect of the story covers a period of eight days. The most important action occurs each night around midnight. The location is in the old mans house and the teller is the caretaker. The whole story happened and revolved around the old mans house. The time frame and the location that Poe established for the story were simple, which come on enhanced the shocking images of the characters and its mysteryThe characters of the story were the nameless and sexless narrator, the old man, and the police. The narrator is nameless and sexless because Poe used I and me to refer to the character. Most readers off-key that the narrator is a male because of a male author using a first person turn on of view. (give the article title or author and year format, not the URL Available http// www.poedecoder.com/essays/ttheart/characters). However, I think the narrator is a male, because he is strong enough to kill the old man and in addition because he was able to live with an old m an and be his caretaker in the19th century (substantiate more).Poe writes the story in the first person point of view and makes it user-friendly for readers to understand every aspect of the narrators mind. Our imaginations are dragged through the narrators eyes and we hold our breath as we continue to read the exciting plot of the murder. It seems that we are just right in the scene watching the narrator killing the old manSymbols can be be in the story (what other symbols?). The major symbol is the heartbeat. The narrator believes that the sound of the heartbeat is from the old mans heart, but it is actually from his own heart. The narrators fear of being caught by the police and his guilt of killing the old man make him hear the sound of the heartbeat steadily. The old mans eye of a vulture- a pale-blue eye is the symbol of evil and represents the narrators fears.Every time the narrator gazed at the evil eye, his blood ran cold. I think its because that the eye reveals the narr ators evil, dark, and ugly side of his mind so that he wants to kill the old man to get rid of the eye forever (sentence is running in circles). In this way, he can get rid of the fact that he is palpablely mad and his mind is ugly and evil (how?).The theme of The Tell- Tale Heart is that human nature is a delicate balance of light and dark or good and evil. Most people can keep their balance at most times (give more examples or situations). However, the balance of human nature can be place downed and the dark side can be aroused by some indefinite (not appropriate term) reasons. Different people view things differently. The reasons that destroy the balance of peoples minds may be different (redundant) In The Tell- Tale Heart, the narrators evilness was awakened by the old mans vulture eye- which really just revealed his own evil.The Tell- Tale Heart is one of my favorite short stories. I read the story for the first time during my first year in the university. When I finished the story, I was really touched and shocked by it. I love the story for its attractive descriptions of human nature, the suspicious plot of a murder, and the mystic atmosphere of the story.Every time I read the story, I imagine myself to be right at that place in the scene and to be aware of the strange atmosphere of the story so I can observe a different side of humanity. I can be in another world for a while to experience fear and guilt. Without a doubt , Poe really is a master at making people experience and explore mans complexities and emotions. By his stories, one can know more about humanity and the evil that exists in human nature.Literature reveals real humanity and true lives of people. By reading these masterpieces, I understand more about people and experience different sides of the human minds, such as good and evil, or beauty and ugliness. After all, these different and opposite things do exist side by side in our real world and we all have to learn to realize and take them normally and correctly so that we can view our lives in the right and perspective point of view to fulfill our life (I cant seem to understand what you mean in this paragraph).Works CitedPoe, Edgar Allan.
