Citizenship & Commitment.
“The Raven” is one of the most famous poems by American author Edgar Allan Poe, but its also one of his darkest, and for a good reason. The values we were set to compare with this story were citizenship and commitment, and I genuinely feel like citizenship doesn't have anything to do with this poem, mainly because the topics that are chosen for this poem don't have anything to do with citizenship or what citizenship stands for, and also because we don’t really know the place where the speaker lives, and we also don’t know what or how strong are his feelings for the place he lives in, or if he’s ever been interested in the health and progress of town, or city, or country, the information is just plainly not available for our discussion or even present enough so that we can deduct it, and even if we only had even the name of the place in which the speaker lived, the poem presents us with far more important and relevant topics that would probably overshadow everything we could
