Sommario/riassunto |
|
Most frequently regarded as a writer of the supernatural, Poe was actually among the most versatile of American authors, writing social satire, comic hoaxes, mystery stories, science fiction, prose poems, literary criticism and theory, and even a play. As a journalist and editor, Poe was closely in touch with the social, political, and cultural trends of nineteenth-century America. In Edgar Allan Poe: Beyond Gothicism, twelve authors examine this 'other' Poe. |
