Edgar Allan Poetry: A Broadside Portfolio (Vol. 2 No. 9)
Nobody saw Edgar Allan Poe coming.
His work, as unprecedented as it was macabre, was rejected by many of the literary giants of his day. He was dismissed by figures as well-known as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Walt Whitman. Yet, after dying in poverty, with a ruined and unsavory reputation, his stature has somehow only grown, by now to titanic proportions. It was only a half century after his death that the scholar William Allan Neilson wrote, "Whether or not America has produced a greater genius than Poe, it would be hard to prove it has produced one more original." He is at once a time-tested darling of the literati, and the only writer to have inspired the name of an American football team (the Baltimore Ravens). His influence is broad and deep. His work is quintessentially American. It represents, at best, a literary declaration of independence, and at worst, a highly original rebellion. Therefore, with an eye toward originality, we present EDGAR ALLAN POETRY.
