Send us a textWelcome to celebrate Poe - episode 381 - Edgar Poe Explains the Raven.Sorry if I gave you the wrong idea in the previous episode, but in this episode I want to delve more into Poe's most famous work.GHOST SOUNDHello Mr. PoeGreetings Mr. BartleyVery welcome to see you today Mr. Poe.  I was just saying that I wanted to deal into your most famous work in today's podcast episode.Oh Mr. Bartley that would have to be the Raven. We certainly talked about the poem in the previous episode, but I welcome another chance to deal to the work.Maybe a good place to start Mr. Poe would be just for you to explain the importance of the ravenAh Mr. Bartley, The Raven can best be described As a profound meditation on human suffering and mortality. The poem explores how grief can consume an individual's rationality and sense of self. The poem's haunting refrain, "Nevermore," encapsulates not just the narrator's despair but also the universal finality of loss that all must confront. Through vivid imagery, Gothic symbolism, and psychological depth, I attempted to create an enduring work that resonates with readers' own experiences of sorrow and longing.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 362 - Poetry and DreamsI was looking through articles about Poe to find information for a future article regarding why do so many people read Edgar Allan Poe. And I found some great stuff and certainly will be writing an episode or two about that subject. But I found an article that said that more Americans - almost 3/4 - are familiar with Edgar Poe - more than any other poet.  Shakespeare is second.Now  this was the episode where I wanted to start some episodes on Bram Stoker - but it turns out there is a poetry workshop that is rather time sensitive, so I better get this out now.You see, on Thursday, April 24 there will be a free workshop from the Academy of American Poets online at YouTube - no charge at all, tho I doubt they would turn down donations.  All you need to do is register, and again, it is free. I have the URL on my Buzzsprout transcript and show notes - but in case you can't  remember URLS - I can't - it is https//poets.org/gala/2025 - - again, it is free - all you need to do is register in advance.  The readers include people such as Christine Baranski, Stephen King, Tony Kusher, Fran Lebowitz, and Lawrence O'Donnell - among others.Just wanted to be sure that you got the info about what is called Poetry and the Creative Mind - again, to be held on Thursday, April 24.By the way, Meryl Streep is extremely active in Poetry and the Creative Mind, and has read works by Elizabeth Bishop, Sylvia Plath, and Walt Whitman in programs across multiple years.By the way, poets.org.gala.2025 will take you to the registration page as well.For the rest of this episode, I would like to delve into several of Edgar Poe's poems that deal with dreams.  The three poems are Dreams, A Dream, and A Dream Within a Dream, and Dreamland - and boy, are they easy to mix up.  So take them in order considering the number of words in the title - I know it sounds simplistic but stay with me because it makes things soooo much easier.  And I am not going to include the poem Dreamland until the end of this podcast  - It is (in my opinion, a poem that is in a class by yourself.)Think 1, 2, and 5 - words that is -The title of Dreams is just one word, the title of A Dream is two words, and the title of the shortest and most mature work - A Dream Within a Dream is 5 words. Dreams and A Dream were both published in 1827 and A Dream Within a Dream was published in 1849 - the year of Edgar Poe's earthly demise.Let me say that again - The title of Dreams is just one word, the title of A Dream is two words, and the title of the most mature work - A Dream Within a Dream is 5 words. Dreams and A Dream were both published in 1827 and A Dream Within a Dream was published in 1849.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 359 - Vampires and the Last SupperWhen I started this podcast, I assumed the topics of the Last Supper and Easter would have nothing to do with anything related to Poe - oh sure, we do have evidence that the Allans attended the Anglican - or Episcopal Church in Richmond - but basically we don't really thing of anything related to religion when we think of Edgar Poe.I know I had said the we would soon delve into Bram Stoker's Dracula - but reality has a way of causing you to change your plans, and so this podcast will be definitely delving into Bram Stoker's Dracula for several episodes next week.  For Easter this year, I did 3 episodes that tied the subject of vampires to the Christian church - and I feel the episodes are very respectful and not at all sacrilegious.And when I first delved into the topic vampires - in preparation for Poe's vampiric stories - I never thought that there would be any connection - however perverted - between, say, communion and vampires.But the more research I did, the more I saw that there was a perverted comparison between the blood demands of a vampire and the truly sacred blood and love of Christ.  Such a comparison offers a fascinating exploration of opposing spiritual and existential themes - of good and evil. Both concepts revolve around the symbolism of blood as a source of life, but they diverge in their purpose and moral implications. And let me apologize in advance - some of the ideas in this podcast might come across as a bit dense and even hard to take, but stick with me.   So the next three podcast episodes will actually deal with Holy Week.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - my name is George Bartley, and this is episode 358 - Pre Dracula 2 or Calling Me By Your Name.The title of this episode - Calling Me By Your Name - is a variation on a phrase -  Call Me By Your Name - taken from the text of a letter written to Walt Whitman by one of Whitman's admirers - none other than Bram Stoker, the author of Dracula.Now remember that Edgar Poe proceeded Bram Stoker, and never specifically used the word vampire in his works, but Poe wrote five stories between 1835 and 1842 that in many ways form the basis for many of his prose works - and all those works deal with the undead.  Those stories are Berenice, Morella, Ligeia, The Fall of the House of Usher, and The Oval Portrait.  In all these tales, Poe writes about the essentially vampiric nature of human relationships - the love that persists beyond the grave. Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - this is episode 287 - Poe's Views on Democracy and Donald Trump.When I started this weekly podcast over 4 years ago, my original intentions were to keep Poecentric - meaning only about the works, times, and life of America's Shakespeare - that grew to some of the literary influences on his works.  Even though I have strong religious and political beliefs,, I wanted to concentrate on Edgar Poe as much as possible.  But for this election season, I could not resist dealing with what Poe might have felt about American politics - utilizing how the writer felt about democracy and demagogues in the 19th century.In this podcast, I would like to talk with Mr. Poe about his views of government - and especially about what he might have thought about the specter of Donald Trump.   I had previously been under the impression that Edgar Allan Poe was somewhat reactionary in his political positions - coming from a wealthy and rather privileged background in the South -  but after doing a great deal of research, I was surprised at how nuanced his views toward democracy actually were.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - this is episode 286 - an examination from a contemporary standpoint of one of Edgar Poe's most famous stories - The Pit and the Pendulum.  And as you will hear very soon, this episode also marks the return of the Ghost of Mr. Poe.Even tho The Pit and the Pendulum story was first published in 1842, the tale certainly has the elements of any great story - the dynamics of the tale are not necessarily confined to any specific historical period.  Much of Greek and Roman mythology, Shakespeare, and any great literature deals with human emotions that could be found in any era.  Poe's works are no different.So for this conclusion to episodes dealing with historical speeches and poems about democracy, I would like to look at The Pit and the Pendulum from a contemporary perspective.  Edgar Poe obviously did not write the story specifically with a fascist government in mind - the rise of fascist and Nazi dictators did not occur until well after Poe's death - but I hope to show in this interpretation how the torture that the narrator suffers in The Pit and the Pendulum can be viewed from the standpoint of a natural outgrowth of creeping fascism.  And I won't be changing a word in Poe's original story.But before Mr. Poe and I continue, I want to point out that I try for each episode to be around 30 minutes in length.  However I believe the increasing suspense built by The Pit and the Pendulum calls for the story to be read or experienced at one sitting - so this Halloween episode will be closer to one hour, but I think you will find it worth it.

I would ask questions of the ghost of Poe and it would answer using the beautiful, flowing language of the 19th century - word structure and vocabulary that might be foreign to us today, but is how the real Edgar Allan Poe might have expressed himself (largely based on his writings.). In this first part of the “interview,”  I talk about the prompt I used with AI Poe, how the ghost of Edgar Poe views popularity, success failure, and despair, and Mr. Poe's thoughts about what it means to be human.  I also ask Mr. Poe about some of his influences such as Lord Byron and Emily Dickinson, and end with a rather detailed look at some of AI Poe's deep feelings regarding Shakespeare.George Bartley

He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism and Gothic fiction in the United States, and of American literature.[1] Poe was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story, and is considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre, as well as a significant contributor to the emerging genre of science fiction.[2] He is the first well-known American writer to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.[3]—Bio via Wikipedia Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

Il est considéré comme l'inventeur du roman policier. Ses contes fantastiques et effrayants ont fait vibrer les lecteurs de nombreuses revues américaines. En France, c'est Baudelaire qui nous a fait découvrir ses "Histoires extraordinaires". Il s'agit bien sûr d'Edgar Allan Poe. De ses premiers poèmes à ses contes les plus célèbres, (Re)Découvrez sa True Story. Edgar Poe naît le 19 janvier 1809 à Boston. Il a un frère et une sœur. Son père et sa mère sont tous les deux comédiens. A peine quelques mois après sa naissance, ses parents rejoignent une nouvelle compagnie de théâtre. La petite famille déménage donc vers le sud, à Richmond, en Virginie. Mais le joli tableau s'assombrit vite : l'année suivante, son père les abandonne et sa mère succombe à une pneumonie. Le jeune garçon est séparé de ses frères et sœurs et recueilli par un riche couple. John et Frances Allan, ses parents adoptifs, le rebaptisent Edgar Allan Poe. Le nom d'une légende.

Première partie - chapitre 7 : Une baleine d'espèce inconnueProposé par audiolude.frNarrateur : Alain Couchot"Bien que j'eusse été surpris par cette chute inattendue, je n'en conservai pas moins une impression très-nette de mes sensations.Je fus d'abord entraîné à une profondeur de vingt pieds environ. Je suis bon nageur, sans prétendre égaler Byron et Edgar Poe, qui sont des maîtres, et ce plongeon ne me fit point perdre la tête. Deux vigoureux coups de talons me ramenèrent à la surface de la mer.Mon premier soin fut de chercher des yeux la frégate. L'équipage s'était-il aperçu de ma disparition ? L'Abraham-Lincoln avait-il viré de bord ? Le commandant Farragut mettait-il une embarcation à la mer ? Devais-je espérer d'être sauvé ?Les ténèbres étaient profondes. J'entrevis une masse noire qui disparaissait vers l'est, et dont les feux de position s'éteignirent dans l'éloignement. C'était la frégate. Je me sentis perdu.« À moi ! à moi ! » criai-je, en nageant vers l'Abraham-Lincoln d'un bras désespéré.Mes vêtements m'embarrassaient. L'eau les collait à mon corps, ils paralysaient mes mouvements. Je coulais ! je suffoquais !…« À moi ! »Ce fut le dernier cri que je jetai. Ma bouche s'emplit d'eau. Je me débattis, entraîné dans l'abîme…Soudain, mes habits furent saisis par une main vigoureuse, je me sentis violemment ramené à la surface de la mer, et j'entendis, oui, j'entendis ces paroles prononcées à mon oreille :« Si monsieur veut avoir l'extrême obligeance de s'appuyer sur mon épaule, monsieur nagera beaucoup plus à son aise. »Je saisis d'une main le bras de mon fidèle Conseil.« Toi ! dis-je, toi !— Moi-même, répondit Conseil, et aux ordres de monsieur.— Et ce choc t'a précipité en même temps que moi à la mer ?— Nullement. Mais étant au service de monsieur, j'ai suivi monsieur ! »Le digne garçon trouvait cela tout naturel !« Et la frégate ? demandai-je.— La frégate ! répondit Conseil en se retournant sur le dos, je crois que monsieur fera bien de ne pas trop compter sur elle !— Tu dis ?— Je dis qu'au moment où je me précipitai à la mer, j'entendis les hommes de barre s'écrier : « L'hélice et le gouvernail sont brisés… »— Brisés ?— Oui ! brisés par la dent du monstre. C'est la seule avarie, je pense, que l'Abraham-Lincoln ait éprouvée. Mais, circonstance fâcheuse pour nous, il ne gouverne plus.— Alors, nous sommes perdus !"

durée : 00:58:45 - Les Cours du Collège de France - De quelle façon l'opéra "Tannhäuser" de Wagner a-t-il servi de matrice à bon nombre d'ouvres ultérieures du compositeur? Quel rôle joue le "Silmarillion" dans l'élaboration de l'ouvre de Tolkien? Pierre-Michel Menger poursuit son analyse des oeuvres matricielles et des projets au long cours. Pierre-Michel Menger note que "L'ouvre The Silmarillion qui a servi d'atelier ou de matrice à la production des matériaux romanesques des deux romans les plus célèbres de John Ronald Reuel Tolkien n'a été publiée qu'après la mort de Tolkien, en 1977, par son fils Christopher avec l'aide de Guy Gavriel Kay. Le roman retrace la genèse et les premiers Âges de l'univers de la Terre du Milieu, qui est le cadre des romans Le Hobbit et Le Seigneur des anneaux." Dès lors, comment Christopher Tolkien a-t-il fouillé et magnifié par un patient et monumental labeur l'atelier de son père ? Pourquoi Baudelaire, avec une "ironie complice", voit-t-il dans la genèse du poème "The Raven" ("Le Corbeau") par son auteur Edgar Poe "un peu de charlatanerie"?Pierre-Michel Menger, titulaire de la chaire de Sociologie du travail créateur, au Collège de France et Directeur d'études à l'EHESS, poursuit sa passionnante enquête, inaugurée en 2019, sous le titre « Comment achever une ouvre ? Travail et processus de création ». Pour la suite de cette grande plongée, dans les ateliers des artistes, dans les processus créateurs, entre "contrôle et incertitude", "décision et indécision", il nous propose des études de cas. Dans le cours précédent, il a ouvert la question des ouvres matricielles, notamment, lorsqu'il a abordé la notion de travail au long cours et de vastes entreprises :"Il y a un autre niveau d'organisation du travail, les "entreprises" (affaire, aventure, entreprise). Une "entreprise" est un groupe durable d'activités liées destinées à produire une série de produits apparentés. Une entreprise embrasse un grand nombre de projets. Plus spécifiquement, quand un projet est achevé, de nouvelles possibilités émergent, à exploiter maintenant ou plus tard. Finir un projet conduit rarement à un état de repos; il déclenche plutôt du travail ultérieur, comme si l'achèvement fournissait l'élan pour continuer. Ainsi chaque entreprise assure une fonction de tremplin pour les projets suivants". "D'un projet à l'autre, poursuit Pierre-Michel Menger, des éléments ou des procédés sont réemployés. Des ouvres d'ambition considérables qui demeurent inachevées peuvent constituer de véritables matrices dont dérive la production d'ouvres particulières. Les ouvres que leurs auteurs jugent inachevées et qui les hantent ont tellement de liens avec les ouvres qui suivent que l'on peut se prendre à analyser l'ensemble complet comme s'il s'agissait d'une création hypertexte. Les multiples révisions, ramifications et bifurcations le long desquelles évolue un travail créateur sont bien la signature d'un parcours incertain (un sorte de squelette pour un processus qui est tout de même orienté dans une certaine direction), mais aussi le support d'un vaste processus d'apprentissage."Le cours précédent s'est achevé sur "le cas fameux de la Porte de l'Enfer de Rodin, glorieux inachèvement, qui occupe une place tout à fait particulière dans la production de Rodin". Aujourd'hui, Pierre Michel Menger nous plonge dans les ateliers du musicien Richard Wagner et des écrivains John Ronald Reuel Tolkien et Edgar Allan Poe.Nous gagnons le Collège de France, le 19 mars 2021, pour le cours de Pierre Michel Menger, aujourd'hui "Raréfaction, consolidation, augmentation - l'ouvre et sa « biographie » au prisme de l'édition (partie 1), de Wagner à Tolkien"Pour prolonger : La Leçon inaugurale de Pierre-Michel Menger a été publiée chez Fayard en 2014 et en édition électronique, sous le titre, La différence, la concurrence et la disproportion : sociologie du travail créateur.

Y así es; empezamos a otorgarle su verdadero lugar, igual o superior al de Edgar Poe; en cualquier caso, decididamente único. Lovecraft tuvo a veces la sensación, ante el repetido fracaso de su producción literaria, de que a fin de cuentas el sacrificio de su vida había sido inútil. Hoy podemos juzgarlo de otro modo; nosotros, para quienes él ha llegado a ser un iniciador esencial a un universo diferente , situado mucho más allá de los límites de la experiencia humana, y no obstante de un impacto emocional terriblemente preciso. Este hombre que no consiguió vivir consiguió, finalmente, escribir. Le costó lo suyo. Le llevó años. Nueva York lo ayudó. Él, que era tan amable, tan cortés, descubrió allí el odio. De regreso en Providence escribió relatos magníficos, vibrantes como un conjuro, precisos como una disección. La estructura dramática de los «grandes textos» es de una riqueza impresionante; los recursos narrativos son hábiles, nuevos, audaces; pero tal vez nada de todo eso bastaría si no intuyésemos, en mitad del conjunto, la presión de una fuerza interior devoradora. Toda gran pasión, ya se trate de amor o de odio, termina produciendo una obra auténtica. Podemos lamentarlo, pero hay que reconocerlo: Lovecraft se sitúa más bien del lado del odio; del odio y del miedo. El universo, que intelectualmente él concibe como indiferente, se vuelve estéticamente hostil. Su propia existencia, que podría haber sido tan sólo una serie de triviales desengaños, se convierte en una operación quirúrgica y una celebración invertida, especular. Su obra de madurez siguió siendo fiel a la postración física de su juventud, transfigurándola. Ahí radica el secreto profundo del genio de Lovecraft, ahí nace el límpido manantial de su poesía: logró transformar su asco por la vida en una hostilidad activa . Ofrecer una alternativa a la vida en todas sus facetas, constituir una oposición permanente, un recurso permanente a la vida: tal es la misión más elevada del poeta en esta tierra.

ART INTERVIEW, lundi et jeudi à 14h. Julie Gabrielle Chaizemartin ou Stéphane Dubreil rencontre des artistes et des acteurs du monde de l'art. Cette semaine, Stéphane rencontre Alix Paré, historienne de l'art, co-autrice de Fantastique Gustave Doré, nous fait entrer dans l'atelier de cet artiste hors norme. Artiste renommé du XIXe siècle, génial illustrateur des grandes œuvres de l'histoire littéraire, de la Bible à Edgar Poe et Théophile Gaultier, Gustave Doré s'est installé au plus profond de notre imaginaire et de notre culture visuelle. Impossible de penser les Fables de la Fontaine, les contes de Perrault ou Gargantua sans que ne surgissent son Chat botté, Gargantua en plein festin ou les rats poursuivis par le lion.Artiste complet : dessinateur, graveur, peintre et sculpteur, Gustave Doré est homme de son temps. Habité par le romantisme, la curiosité pour la nature, une fascination pour le fantastique qui s'impose depuis l'Angleterre, il invente une imagerie qui influencera Gustave Moreau et le symbolisme, la peinture d'Odilon Redon, le cinéma de Méliès jusqu'à des oeuvres plus récentes. Harry Potter, le Seigneur des Anneaux, l'animation de Blanche Neige, Fantasia de Disney ou encore Shreck, la bande-dessinée et la publicité. Surdoué, prolifique, il laisse plus de 10 000 gravures et au moins 100 000 dessins, Gustave Doré a aussi pratiqué la caricature, le reportage de guerre et l'illustration de guide de voyage. "Il a livré des caricatures comiques et des images sérieuses, des visions épiques et des vues contemplatives, il a observé le réel tout en étant virtuose dans la fantaisie. Il nous semblait nécessaire de partager ce foisonnement et de révéler cette diversité."

# About The Talent Edgar Allan Poe (/poʊ/; born Edgar Poe; January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849) was an American writer, editor, and literary critic. Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and of American literature as a whole, and he was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story. He is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.

The series begins with a hypnotic induction, inviting you deep inside your head. Then-- a man and woman bury their cat in a Baltimore cemetery, while they gossip about Edgar Poe who lies dying in a nearby hospital. In his delirium, Poe mingles the sounds of the hospital with his own phantasms, dreaming the attending doctor and nurse are gods who may yet save his life. This episode includes Poe’s poem “A Dream Within a Dream.”

After his death, Virginia’s spirit receives Edgar Poe’s confused soul. She tries to help him regain his sense of self, through remembering their lives together and his final days on Earth. He begins to recollect it all, including the mystery and terror of dying. Enthralled by the experience, he loses touch with her and winds up back in the graveyard as a ghost of Sorrow, haunting her grave forever. All this is portrayed in one long art song.

(Corrected version of the podcast! While talking about international pirated versions of Poe's books, we mis-stated details about U.S. copyright in 1868. This file corrects that. If you know more about this letter be sure to email us and we'll read your letter on the pod. colleen-theisen@uiowa.edu, thanks! - Colleen).    For this episode of Historically Yours, Curator of Science Fiction and Popular Culture, Peter Balestrieri takes us back into the publishing industry reading a handwritten letter from 1868 written on behalf of Miss Rosa Poe, sister of Edgar Allan Poe.   Letter information:   MsL T473d Thompson, John Reuben to Eugene Didier 28 January 1868   Letter text:   17 Lafayette Place: New York City, 28 Jan. 1868   Dear Sir, I am again compelled to remind you that you have returned no answer in the matter of the Juvenile Verses of Edgar Poe, which I submitted to you some time ago for “Southern Society” and to ask either that you will return me the Ms. or else authorize us to write to Miss Rosa Poe that she may draw upon you for $15 - the sum I named as compensation for them. I explained to you when I sent the Ms. that Miss Poe was in a very destitute situation, and that I had undertaken, purely as a work of charity, to find a purchaser for the verses. If you want them, write me to that effect at once, if you do not want them, send them back to me, for delay in a case of destitution is really really unreasonable. I desire to get two copies of your paper containing my poem of “Music in Camp,” and one copy of the number which published Simms’ Sketch of [Timrod?]. If you will be good enough to send us these, and will let me know what I am to pay for them, I will send you the amount in postage stamps. Very truly yours,   R. Thompson   Eugene Didier Esq.

Parfois considéré comme un écrivain pour "happy few", Julien Gracq (1910-2007)a pourtant un statut exceptionnel en littérature : traduit dans une trentaine de langues, il est entré de son vivant dans la collection de La Pléiade. Il considérait que l’auteur n'était rien d'autre que son oeuvre. Il refusait les interviews et vivait comme un ermite à l'écart des bruits du monde, à St Florent le Vieil, en Maine-et-Loire. Ecrivain de l’attente, romancier paysagiste, il peut être considéré comme un "enchanteur réticent", habité par la mythologie arthurienne, Jules Verne et Edgar Poe. A la recherche permanente du mot juste, l’écriture de Gracq "avance comme les ciseaux d’un couturier, avec un sillage qui ne se referme pas derrière elle" (Léon Mazzella).

Edgar Allan Poe (January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849) was an American writer, poet, editor and literary critic, considered part of the American Romantic Movement. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe was one of the earliest American practitioners of the short story and is considered the inventor of the detective-fiction genre. He is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction.[1] He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.[2] He was born as Edgar Poe in Boston, Massachusetts; he was orphaned young when his mother died shortly after his father abandoned the family. Poe was taken in by John and Frances Allan, of Richmond, Virginia, but they never formally adopted him. He attended the University of Virginia for one semester but left due to lack of money. After enlisting in the Army and later failing as an officer's cadet at West Point, Poe parted ways with the Allans. His publishing career began humbly, with an anonymous collection of poems, Tamerlane and Other Poems (1827), credited only to "a Bostonian". Poe switched his focus to prose and spent the next several years working for literary journals and periodicals, becoming known for his own style of literary criticism. His work forced him to move between several cities, including Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York City. In Baltimore in 1835, he married Virginia Clemm, his 13-year-old cousin. In January 1845 Poe published his poem "The Raven" to instant success. His wife died of tuberculosis two years after its publication. He began planning to produce his own journal, The Penn (later renamed The Stylus), though he died before it could be produced. On October 7, 1849, at age 40, Poe died in Baltimore; the cause of his death is unknown and has been variously attributed to alcohol, brain congestion, cholera, drugs, heart disease, rabies, suicide, tuberculosis.

Edgar Allan Poe (January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849) was an American writer, poet, editor and literary critic, considered part of the American Romantic Movement. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe was one of the earliest American practitioners of the short story and is considered the inventor of the detective-fiction genre. He is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction.[1] He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.[2] He was born as Edgar Poe in Boston, Massachusetts; he was orphaned young when his mother died shortly after his father abandoned the family. Poe was taken in by John and Frances Allan, of Richmond, Virginia, but they never formally adopted him. He attended the University of Virginia for one semester but left due to lack of money. After enlisting in the Army and later failing as an officer's cadet at West Point, Poe parted ways with the Allans. His publishing career began humbly, with an anonymous collection of poems, Tamerlane and Other Poems (1827), credited only to "a Bostonian". Poe switched his focus to prose and spent the next several years working for literary journals and periodicals, becoming known for his own style of literary criticism. His work forced him to move between several cities, including Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York City. In Baltimore in 1835, he married Virginia Clemm, his 13-year-old cousin. In January 1845 Poe published his poem "The Raven" to instant success. His wife died of tuberculosis two years after its publication. He began planning to produce his own journal, The Penn (later renamed The Stylus), though he died before it could be produced. On October 7, 1849, at age 40, Poe died in Baltimore; the cause of his death is unknown and has been variously attributed to alcohol, brain congestion, cholera, drugs, heart disease, rabies, suicide, tuberculosis.
