Timeline

"Annabel Lee" is the last complete poem composed by American author Edgar Allan Poe.

Like many of Poe's poems, it explores the theme of the death of a beautiful woman.

The narrator, who fell in love with Annabel Lee when they were young, has a love for her so strong that even angels are envious.

He retains his love for her after her death.

There has been debate over who, if anyone, was the inspiration for "Annabel Lee".

Though many women have been suggested, Poe's wife Virginia Eliza Clemm Poe is one of the more credible candidates.

1827

There is no evidence that Edgar Allan Poe had heard of this legend, but locals insist it was his inspiration, especially considering Poe was briefly stationed at Fort Moultrie in Charleston while in the army in 1827.

1849

Written in 1849, it was not published until shortly after Poe's death that same year.

The poem's narrator describes his love for Annabel Lee, which began many years ago in a "kingdom by the sea".

Though they were young, their love for each other burned with such intensity that even angels were envious.

For this reason, the narrator believes the seraphim caused her death.

Even so, their love is strong enough that it extends beyond the grave and the narrator believes their two souls are still entwined.

Every night, the narrator dreams of Annabel Lee and sees the brightness of her eyes in the stars.

Every night, the narrator lies down by her side in her tomb by the sea.

Like many other Poe poems including "The Raven", "Ulalume", and "To One in Paradise", "Annabel Lee" follows the theme of the death of a beautiful woman, which Poe called "the most poetical topic in the world".

Like women in many other works by Poe, she marries young and is struck with illness.

The poem focuses on an ideal love which is unusually strong.

In fact, the narrator's actions show that he not only loves Annabel Lee, but he worships her, something he can only do after her death.

The narrator admits that he and Annabel Lee were children when they fell in love, but his explanation that angels murdered her is in itself childish, suggesting he has failed to mature since then.

His repetition of this assertion suggests he is trying to rationalize his own excessive feelings of loss.

Unlike "The Raven", in which the narrator believes he will "nevermore" be reunited with his love, "Annabel Lee" says the two will be together again, as not even demons "can ever dissever" their souls.

"Annabel Lee" consists of six stanzas, three with six lines, one with seven, and two with eight, with the rhyme pattern differing slightly in each one.

Though it is not technically a ballad, Poe referred to it as one.

Like a ballad, the poem uses repetition of words and phrases purposely to create its mournful effect.

The name Annabel Lee emphasizes the letter "L", a frequent device in Poe's female characters such as "Eulalie", "Lenore", and "Ulalume".

The Edgar Allan Poe Society of Baltimore, Maryland has identified 11 versions of "Annabel Lee" that were published between 1849 and 1850.

The biggest variation is in the final line:

It is unclear on whom the eponymous character Annabel Lee is based.

Biographers and critics usually suggest Poe's frequent use of the "death of a beautiful woman" theme stems from the repeated loss of women throughout his own life, including his mother Eliza Poe and his foster mother Frances Allan.

Biographers often interpret that "Annabel Lee" was written for Poe's wife Virginia, who had died two years prior, as was suggested by poet Frances Sargent Osgood, though Osgood is herself a candidate for the poem's inspiration.

A strong case can be made for Poe's wife Virginia: She was the one he loved as a child, the only one who had been his bride, and the only one who had died.

Autobiographical readings of the poem have also been used to support the theory that Virginia and Poe never consummated their marriage, as "Annabel Lee" was a "maiden".

Critics, including T. O. Mabbott, believed that Annabel Lee was merely the product of Poe's gloomy imagination and that Annabel Lee was no real person in particular.

A childhood sweetheart of Poe's named Sarah Elmira Royster believed the poem was written with her in mind and that Poe himself said so.

Sarah Helen Whitman and Sarah Anna Lewis also claimed to have inspired the poem.

Local legend in Charleston, South Carolina tells the story of a sailor who met a woman named Annabel Lee.

Her father disapproved of the pairing and the two met privately in a graveyard before the sailor's time stationed in Charleston was up.

While away, he heard of Annabel's death from yellow fever, but her father would not allow him at the funeral.

Because he did not know her exact burial location, he instead kept vigil in the cemetery where they had often secretly met.

"Annabel Lee" was probably composed in May 1849.
