i think this is a poem that some what encourages his readers which is the
complete antithesis of him all toghether b/c we normally see dark things in
his writings. But all in all, it could have been encouragement to himself
and all the things he was going through. he wrote this poem after Virginia
died and he probably realized that he needed encouragement to help him get
through. Which we see didn't work so well in his later years.

I think the part of the poem where the shadow tells tge knight to look over
th mountains over the moon is not very clear...
What does it mean?

i love this poem. A knight searching for the city of gold that doesn't
exist. I love the was EAP hides the meaning of this poem. You really have
to know your history for this poem to find the true meaning. If you know
anything about Sir Walter Raleigh thats a good start...This is one of the
best poems i have ever saw because i can actually understand it. I love
poety.

I love this poem. Yes, it indeed has a dismal message, yet the sing songy
rhythm seems to be contradictory to its depressing message. I believe that
the the part where it says:
"In sunshine and in shadow,"
the sunshine represents faith and the shadow represents doubt.

in my regard the poem 'Eldorado' by Edgar allan poe is simply the 'best'.
Its central idea is that we can get eldorado 'the land of gold' only in
heaven i.e. life after death.in my point of view poe wrote this story to
reflect the mere fact that one gets inner peace and wealth through his
deeds at earth which later are the conditions in which he is judged in
heaven.

The origin of El Dorado comes from 16th century British men, such as Sir
Walter Raleigh who searched for a land of gold, called El Dorado in Guiana
and through out South America but never found it, because it didn't exist

Does anybody know where "eldorado" by E. A. Poe was published? And perhaps
also in europe?! Would be very helpful.
thx,
