The Raven and Other Poems

The undisputed pioneer of the horror, detective and science-fiction genres, Edgar Allan Poe was just as influential as a poet as he is now a celebrated writer of short stories. The present edition contains a large selection of his works in verse, from those he published during his lifetime - such as his famous ballads ''The Raven'' and ''Lenore'' - to those that were collected immediately after his premature death in 1849, including the ones he wrote in his youth. Also included in this volume is a selection of Poe''s essays on poetical composition and prosody, revealing that poetry was at the core of the American master''s vision of literature - something also demonstrated by the accomplished productions and enduring legacy he has left behind in this field.>
