Try scrolling down for my past answers. I might e-mail you an article. This is a ballad about obsessive devotion, bitter revolt, over many years by the narrator who decries the death of his young wife(opposed by relations and the powers above). The sad, unstable, chilling position of this man and his will("Ligeia" eternity is will) is to remain at the so-called divisive point of life/death, sea/shore and affirm the unbreakable bond. Annable is nearly invisible as a person. It is the bond alone that is enshrined here.
