from “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe During the whole of a dull, dark, and soundless day in the autumn of th

e year, when the clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens, I had been passing alone, on horseback, through a singularly dreary tract of country, and at length found myself, as the shades of the evening drew on, within view of the melancholy House of Usher. I know not how it was—but, with the first glimpse of the building, a sense of insufferable gloom pervaded my spirit. I say insufferable; for the feeling was unrelieved by any of that half-pleasurable, because poetic, sentiment, with which the mind usually receives even the sternest natural images of the desolate or terrible. I looked upon the scene before me—upon the mere house, and the simple landscape features of the domain—upon the bleak walls—upon the vacant eye-like windows—upon a few rank sedges—and upon a few white trunks of decayed trees—with an utter depression of soul which I can compare to no earthly sensation more properly than to the after-dream of the reveller upon opium—the bitter lapse into every-day life—the hideous dropping off of the veil.

Answer:

Poe presents a more poetic writing and full of adjectives, in addition to the presentation of narration in first person. Chopin, on the other hand, presents a more direct and objective writing, with full exposure of facts and narration in a third person.

Explanation:

While reading the passage written by Poe, we can see that the author was adept at using first-person narration, where the narrator is the main character of the story. In addition, Poe's writing is quite poetic, subjunctive, full of meanings and metaphors, with a strong appeal to sentimentality and full of adjectives.

The reading of the excerpt written by Chopin, presents characteristics totally different from those found in the Poe excerpt. Chopin is a fan of fast, incisive and objective writing, for this reason, we fail to notice the recurrent use of adjectives and metaphors, since the author prefers to establish a clearer and less verbose writing.
