Katie you are only cheating yourself by not reading this book. I've read it, and I could easily give you the answers, but that's not the point.
Edgar Allen Poe was one of the most gifted writers in the world. His books have been tranlated into 200 languages.
READ THE BOOK and do your own homework. This forum is for checking accuracy, critiquing what you've already written, not for doing the work for you.
This is just sad. From a literary standpoint, it's really sad.

Annabel Lee Questions

This poem is really not the hardest to interpret. I'll give you a few answers, but not all, because this isn't my homework. I recommend you read it on your own, it really is a tenderly beautiful, very sad poem. As someone else mentioned, Edgar Allen Poe was a wonderful, genius writer. His work deserves the attention it gets, which is why you are taught it in school.
1. The assumed speaker is obviously the former love of the young Annabel Lee.
2. The setting is probably still a seaside city
3. According to the speaker, Annabel Lee dies of a cold wind, which probably gave her pneumonia.

When did your teacher ask these questions?
Why did you think we wouldn't get that that's where it came from when you asked the same questions word for word?
Why can't you go read it for yourself?
Here's the poem: http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/annabel-lee/
a word of warning: there are popups.
also, i just looked at one of your other questions. you have been doing all of your own homework, have you? b/c this evidence sure doesn't support that statement.

I guess you decided to post this on here, so somebody else can do your homework. That's pitiful.

"Quoth the raven, nevermore." "The Raven" would probably be his most famous poem. Other honorable mentions include "The Tell-tale Heart", "The Cask of Amontillado" and "The Pit and the Pendulum". I personally like "The Cask of Amontillado", great prank to play on your friends 😀
