Answer:

The use of words and literary devices allows the author to provide a melancholy tone in his work. In addition to providing meanings for the different conceptions and concepts that we build throughout our lives. In addition, the poem addresses topics such as the unpredictability of the future, the passage of time, fear of death and even death itself.

The poem fits into the Gothic literature exactly because it brings this rambling about death, the haunting, the discomfort and the melancholy.

Explanation:

"The Bells" is one of the best known poems written by Edgar Allan Poe. In this poem he shows how life is fleeting, how things change in meaning and how our age and experience in life change our expectations, fears and interpretations.

The poem shows the meaning of bells during different stages of someone's life. In this case, the author uses several metaphors, honomatopeias and allegories, showing how in the youth the bells are present in moments of joy, fun, construction and positive expectations, however, from the moment when the human being gets older and the unpredictability of the future and the imminent arrival of death become more and more frequent thoughts, the sounds of the bells become agonizing, melancholy, threatening and somber.
