Synopsis
This is the most complete one-volume edition of Poe's essays and reviews ever published. Here are all his major writings on the theory of poetry, the art of fiction, and the duties of a critic: "The Rationale of Verse," "The Philosophy of Composition," "The Poetic Principle," and "About Critics and Criticism." Articulating Poe's passion for technical proficiency and his theory of poetic method, these essays show why he so strongly influenced the French symbolists toward the end of nineteenth century and, through them, the poetry of T. S. Eliot and Hart Crane. Included in this collection are Poe's reviews and candid opinions of the leading literary figures of his day: Charles Dickens, Washington Irving, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Percy Shelley, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Margaret Fuller, among others. Here also are reviews of long-forgotten writers, reviews that are interesting not so much for their subjects as for Poe's unflinching and witty candor. Many of his then controversial judgments have been vindicated by time. Poe particularly relished his prolonged critical war with Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Professor of Modern Languages at Harvard and America's most respected poet of the nineteenth century, whom he accused of conventionality and plagiarism. The skirmishes in this campaign are represented here in full. Poe wrote many articles describing the literary world in which he circulated: "The Literati of New York," the "Editorial Miscellanies" from the Broadway Journal , "Some Secrets of the Magazine Prison-House," and his long-running series "Marginalia." Also included are a wealth of articles on a wide variety of topics: South Sea exploration, cryptography, drama, geography, music, transcendentalism, phrenology, ancient languages, and modern cities. As a reviewer Poe was direct, discriminating, and feared; as an essayist he was alert to any possibility that in literature there might be found a sense of unity missing from life. This volume restores an essential and often neglected part of our literary heritage. LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an independent nonprofit cultural organization founded in 1979 to preserve our nation's literary heritage by publishing, and keeping permanently in print, America's best and most significant writing. The Library of America series includes more than 300 volumes to date, authoritative editions that average 1,000 pages in length, feature cloth covers, sewn bindings, and ribbon markers, and are printed on premium acid-free paper that will last for centuries.

- 6***o (5)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI absolutely love this store. The books I ordered were as described, wonderful condition and all imperfections were listed in the description. The packaging was out of this world. Each book was carefully wrapped in tissue paper, then further wrapped in bubble wrap. Additionally each book was stabilized by a carton and placed in the shipping box. There were some issues with shipping from the USPS side but the vendor called them and they arrived short after. The value was better than other vendors
- l***k (1662)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufBook exactly as described, and superfast shipping. Best part was the absolutely brilliant packaging, shipped in a protective box, wrapped in tissue paper, then in bubble wrap. So nice to receive the item in undamaged condition because the seller went to the extra trouble and expense to ensure that it reached me safely. Added to favorite sellers. Thanks!!!!!!
- -***o (251)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufFair price, item just as described. Also, HANDS DOWN the BEST packing job I've ever seen from a book dealer. Product was packed the way an item from a factory floor might be packed: the book first wrapped in layers of tissue paper and bubble wrap, neatly sealed with tape, and then shrink-wrapped within new, clean, padded cardboard that was in turn surrounded by packing paper inside *another* new, clean box. I am VERY HAPPY with this purchase and HOPE TO DO BUSINESS WITH THE SELLER AGAIN.
