| Summary | "Ligeia und andere Novellen; Sieben Gedichte" by Edgar Allan Poe is a collection of novellas and poems likely written in the early 19th century. The work centers on themes of love, loss, and the supernatural, prominently featured in the haunting tale of the protagonist's deep obsession with his ethereal beloved, Ligeia, whose beauty and intellect leave a lasting impact on him. The opening of the collection introduces readers to the protagonist's profound memories of Ligeia, depicting her as a woman of extraordinary beauty and intelligence who captivates his heart. The narrator recounts the anguish of her illness and eventual death, conveying a sense of desperation intertwined with love. As he grapples with the loss of Ligeia, the narrative captures his conflicted emotions, showcasing both his reverence for her and the devastating weight of loneliness following her demise.
