The Complete Tales and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe

Edgar Allan Poe

Self-destructive, melancholic, and usually dressed in black, Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849) was the rock star of American literature in the 1830s and 1840s. While most writers of his time strove for the appearance of middle-class respectability, Poe was touched by scandal from his earliest days until his death, the circumstances of which remain unresolved. Sadly, the controversial details of his life, which were made to appear even more scandalous by the publication of an unfavorable obituary written by former friend and the executor of his estate, Rufus Griswold, tarnished his reputation as a writer for more than half a century after his death. The rediscovery of Poe’s work in the first half of the twentieth century, and the establishment of his importance as a critical figure in the development of a uniquely American form of literature, have revealed the important influences his work has exerted on both contemporary literature and culture.
