This incisive catalogue of literary and rhetorical terms, presented in alphabetical order and amply illustrated with examples - in addition to close examinations of some of Poe's most important tales - overwhelmingly demonstrates Poe's rhetorical and linguistic dexterity, putting a nearly two-hundred-year-old critical debate to rest by showing Poe to be a conscientious craftsman of the highest order. 606 $aLITERARY COLLECTIONS / General$2bisacsh 615 7$aLITERARY COLLECTIONS / General. 676 $a811/.3 700 $aZimmerman$b Brett$f1958-$01521658 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782184403321 996 $aEdgar Allan Poe$93760987 997 $aUNINA
