Answer:
Poe chose to set in "The Crow" a melancholy and somber atmosphere to build a sad and lonely character.
Explanation:
The Raven is Edgar Allan Poe's most famous poem and even the history of literature. Published in 1845 under a pseudonym, verses dealing with loss and desire, death and hope, anguish and loneliness, are universally acclaimed and praised to this day.
They are precisely 108 verses that narrate the despair of the lyrical self that loses its beloved, Lenora. In his sad room, on a rainy day, a crow suddenly enters the narrator's house and rests on a statue (the bust of Pallas Athens, considered the goddess of Greek wisdom). The raven and the lyrical I then begin to dialogue.
