  • Résumé

  • "Israfel" is an intriguing poem by Edgar Allan Poe that explores the power and limitations of artistic expression, specifically through the character of Israfel, an angel whose song is so pure that even the stars and heavenly beings stand still to listen. The poem delves into the dichotomy between earthly suffering and heavenly bliss, with Israfel as a symbol of untainted, divine creativity that humans can only aspire to emulate. Yet, the poem also posits that the pain and imperfections of human existence give depth to human art that even an angel's pure song might lack. In the end, "Israfel" serves as an ode to the transcendent power of art, acknowledging both its divine and earthly dimensions.
