Back to Edgar Allan Poe and The Raven for tomorrow.
Lisa reads "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe. In this adaptation, Bart is depicted as the raven, Homer finds himself in the role of the poem's lead character, while Lisa and Maggie are seraphim. Marge appears briefly as a painting of Lenore. James Earl Jones narrates. The poem is read verbatim, with some of the poem edited out for time. Several times a bust of Edgar Allan Poe is visible in the background on a bookshelf.

With Halloween being just over a week away, I thought an Edgar Allan Poe posting was in order. Here are a couple of interactive sites dealing with one of his most famous poems, The Raven.
The Knowing Poe site has many teacher lesson plans and ideas. To see this site click here.
The second site deals only with The Raven and goes through each stanza for literary devices. To see this site click here.
