While I appreciate a good man-eating worm--any of the millions in the nonfiction world and the dozens in fiction--the majority of the poem wasn't about the worm. I think the earlier part of the poem was a funeral or something parallel. The language in that part is more Gothic, exclamation point!, words not used in English anymore, and so I didn't get into the rhythm. I like the ending though. Overall though I prefer other Poe poems. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
A meditation on death and mortality, "The Conqueror Worm" describes a cryptic and ghoulish play that represents the inevitability of death. Despite the fact that his first published works were books of poetry, during his lifetime Edgar Allan Poe was recognized more for his literary criticism and prose than his poetry. However, Poe's poetic works have since become as well-known as his famous stories, and reflect similar themes of mystery and the macabre.
