Answer:

In most of his writings, including 'The Raven,' Edgar Allan Poe employs his own particular language to create a somber, almost sad tone. When you read the novel, you'll notice how frequently the author uses vivid descriptive language. Because all of this atmosphere seeps directly into readers' thoughts, Poe's use of imagery is what makes the narrative so genuine and affecting to a reader.
