Poe is a writer who is inspired by all the pain and depression he has gone through in his life. In most of Poe 's stories, the narrator wanted revenge, but usually gets caught and later executed. In Poe’s stories the main theme is that anger leads to bad decisions. In Poe’s story,Tell-Tale Heart, the Narrator is man at an old man, because he doesn’t like his eye.

At the time he wasn’t only mourning the death of Annabel Lee but also the death of his wife a few years back which is the reason that he wrote The Raven. Learning about how all of the people that he loved, and cared for died will show just about anyone that it was not an easy life for Poe. A critic once said that Poe wrote and knew that any type of love had to come with loss (Kennedy). This showed a lot about Poe’s life as everyone that he loved he actually did lose. This made it a lonely life that made him very depressed.

Then Romeo sets out in his sorrow to an apothecary and says, “Come hither, man. I see that thou art poor: hold, there is forty ducats: let me have a dram of poison, such soon-speeding gear as will disperse itself through all the veins that the life-weary taker may fall dead and that the trunk may be discharged of breath as violently as hasty powder fired doth hurry from the fatal cannon 's womb.” These quotes show you that Romeo is planning to kill himself because of Juliet faking her death, which Romeo doesn’t know about. In the end, Romeo kills himself by poison and dies by Juliet and then Juliet stabs herself and dies when she finds Romeo dead.

While dying of the same poisoned sword, he implicates King Claudius. In conclusion, Hamlet is indeed an insane psychopath, who started out playing an antic disposition which later just became worse and worse. The three reasons that prove Hamlet is insane, are first, the killing of Polonius in his mother's bed chambers. Second, is his famous speech about whether to be or not to be. The last thing that proves that Hamlet is not just pretending to be insane is in the final scene when himself and Laetes battle to the death, and when he drinks out of a poisoned gauntlet to speed up his

Perhaps it was not that Poe was drunk, yet crazed - the resulting effect of rabies. According to Doctor Henry Wilde, Edgar had all of the features of encephalitic rabies. Although it might be coincidental, it is very much possible. After being brought to a hospital, Poe had been hallucinating, heavily perspiring, and shouting at imaginary companions on the walls. "I become insane with long intervals of horrible sanity" (Poe), said the misguided poet.

Children were abandoned, families torn apart, and a general panic spread through everyone.

As stated by the author Giovanni Boccaccio himself, “[Some people] held that plenty of drinking and enjoyment, singing and free living and the gratification of the appetite in every single way, letting the devil take the hindmost… for everyone had abandoned all responsibilities for his belongings as well as for himself, considering his days numbered” (page 286). A choice group called the Flagellants believed that God was punishing humanity for their sins, and began to march from city to city, men and women “flogging themselves with whips to win the forgiveness of God” (page 286).
