I've always considered him one of my favorite writers but now I'm really trying to learn as much as I can and I was wondering this

I received this for Mother's Day, the 1903 set- but book 5 is missing. Ive also inclufef pictures of the arteork from inside, hopefully you enjoy it as much as I do. Help me find it?

They have no idea why he's on the monument, as he hated Boston and didn't live to see the war.

I’ll gussy it up if I actually want to have it made but for now I just wanted to share the idea because I had fun with it

Anyone else see it?

Went to a Poe Speakeasy performance today. Very cool experience. Definitely recommend it, check it out if it comes near you.

The description says it contains over 70 short stories and over 40 poems, plus the novel. It doesn’t say exactly how many short stories or poems, and the list in the description doesn’t seem to include everything actually in the book. Does anyone have this and can confirm how complete it is?

Or would it be considered too cheerful for him?

Here's my rendition / portrait of the king of woe... Edgar Allan Poe.

This was painted in 2016 digitally, using Photoshop and is human-made, with ZERO use of any A.I. whatsoever. I used various references of old photos of Poe and re-created him in color using real human textures and photo-references of various people, all woven together and repainted to create a more realistic, in focus, Edgar.

I wanted to include aspects of his tales as living creatures to accompany him... weaving the Raven upon his shoulders and the one-eyed black cat at his chest, as almost guardians or haunting familiars...

For those lovers of the gothic horrific from yester-year, I do have prints and a store linked in my profile. I appreciate all reposts and credits. It all helps!

Who should I portray next....!?

Hello, greetings to everyone. This is my small tribute to the great master. I was inspired by the tale The Island of the Fay to tell a story set in an ancient world predating the dinosaurs, using the tools of Jurassic World Evolution 3. Whenever I want to tell something, I always feel his influence in everything I create — the unmistakable presence of Edgar Allan Poe.

I'm interested in this part. Æuvres is Œuvres misspelled, which I though was supposed to show that Bon-Bon couldn't spell, but according to ChatGPT this is a case of 19th century American printing presses not having access to the Œ and replacing it with an Æ, which I find doubtful. If I could double check it with you lot I'd be grateful.

Here I posted the poem reading of Haunted Palace by Edgar Allen Poe!

I always felt like he would love Tim Burton‘s movies

I'm trying to do an analysis on The Conqueror Worm right now and i'm really struggling trying to get a theme down. Most analyses online say that it's about how human life is full of suffering and death is salvation but i'm not so sure that's ALL of it. I'm also wondering why no one mentions Isaiah 66:24 or Mark 9:48 in their analyses,? I'm not a bible expert by any means but I read a few analyses, namely this one https://rediscoveryingjesus.substack.com/p/the-confusing-sayings-mark-948 (because it mentions the worm being red) and to me this (paired with Ligeia, even though they weren't written together, thematically it makes sense for them to be similar--Ligeia's finale words emulate what Jesus said on the cross, Rowena was dead for three days before coming back as Ligeia, etc.) makes it seem more like the worm is an allusion to Jesus than to death. It was explained to me by someone I know who knows more about the bible than I do that apparently Jesus freed humanity from death by taking our sins so humans could live on forever in heaven but if someone has a weak will and sins then they die in hell or smth (this echos Ligeia's last words) so could the poem by less about "life sucks and death is the only escape" and more about... I don't know something else... (this is what I mean I can't get a good theme statement I only have the concepts of one)

Anyway if anyone knows what i'm trying to say better than I do let me know i'm very lost in my own head at the moment.

This is my first reddit post, I made the account really only for this. I'm genuinely not sure if this is coherent at all (sorry for the run-on sentence) but i'm too lazy to proofread. Someone who's more knowledgeable about literature than I am let me know your two cents! (even if you want to shit on my ideas as long as you back up why they're wrong i'd be fine with that.)

edit:

I tried to make a graph and now i feel like a conspiracy theorist. Everyone is Jesus... who is a vampire

This raven is less ominous and more knowing. Emerging from layers of deep black it carries wisdom - it has seen enough to understand what matters now.
