Emron Esplin. Borges's
Emron Esplin. Borges’s Poe: The Influence and Reinvention of Edgar Allan Poe in Spanish America. The New Southern Studies, University of Georgia Press, 2016. Pp. xi, 239. $44.95. ISBN: 9780820349053. DOI: https://doi.org/10.24197/ersjes.39.2018.307-311 Jorge Luis Borges famously wrote, speaking of Franz Kafka, that writers are the creators of their precursors, and certainly it is all but impossible today for anyone who has read Borges to read Edgar Allan Poe without the looming shadow of the great Argentinian. Poe’s presence in Borges is at the same time but a part of a wider phenomenon of the US author’s influence in Spanish America, extending to other celebrated writers such as Rubén Darío, Julio Cortázar and Carlos Fuentes. Equally, the Borges-Poe link is of a strength and solidity sufficient to justify the appearance, in the shape of the volume under review, of a book-length study. The relationship between the two writers has been the subject of critical attention over time, the academic state of play as at the end of last century being summarised in a contribution by Graciela E. Tissera to the multi- author work Poe Abroad, edited by Lois Davis Vines and published in 1999. The extension and detail of Emron Esplin’s study reflect the multidirectionality of existing and potential Poe-Borges scholarship, in the light of the ceaseless revisits to Poe made by Borges across his writing career. The author is more than qualified for such a task, as coeditor of the collective volume of 2014, Translated Poe, which, as its title suggests, takes the internationalisation of Poe as its watchword.

WHITTY WITH ILLUSTRATIONS BOSTON AND NEW YORK HOUGHTON MIFFLIN COMPANY COPYRIGHT, I9II AND IQI?. BY J. H. WHITT7 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TCtjc XUOcrsi&r $rcss CAMBRIDGE MASSACHUSETTS PRINTED IN THE U.S.A. TO GEORGE EDWARD WOODBERRV 306123 PREFACE POE showed the utmost solicitude for the final text of his poems. He constantly revised and reprinted them. Professor G. E. Woodberry in his revised Life of Poe says: "There is no such example in literature of poetic elaboration as is contained in the successive issues of ' ' these poems. His revisions were minute sometimes a mere word, and again only a punctuation mark or two. But even the mere matter of punctuation in the text, to an artistic poet like Poe, was of more than passing mo ment. Poe himself more fully explains this in Graham's Magazine for February, 1848, where he wrote: "That punctuation is important all agree; but how few com prehend the extent of its importance! The writer who neglects punctuation, or mis-punctuates, is liable to be misunderstood. It does not seem to be known that, even when the sense is perfectly clear, a sentence may be de prived of half its force its spirit its point by im proper punctuation." Under these circumstances there is no difficulty in deciding upon Poe's last revision as the authoritative and final text of his poems. Indeed in the preface to the Stedman-Woodberry edition of Poe's poems it is said, "The claim of his latest revision to be accepted as the authorized text seems to the Editors irresistible." The text of the poems adopted by them was that of the so-called J.

Poe (short stories) 1845 • Eureka: A Prose Poem (poetry) 1848 • The Literati: Some Honest Opinions about Authorial Merits and Demerits, with Occasional Words of Personality (criticism) 1850 Major Themes The most prominent features of Edgar Allan Poe's poetry are a pervasive tone of melancholy, a longing for lost love and beauty, and a preoccupation with death, particularly the deaths of beautiful women. Most of Poe's works, both poetry and prose, feature a first-person narrator, often ascribed by critics as Poe himself. Numerous scholars, both contemporary and modern, have suggested that the experiences of Poe's life provide the basis for much of his poetry, particularly the early death of his mother, a trauma that was repeated in the later deaths of two mother- surrogates to whom the poet was devoted. Poe's status as an outsider and an outcast--he was orphaned at an early age; taken in but never adopted by the Allans; raised as a gentleman but penniless after his estrangement from his foster father; removed from the university and expelled from West Point--is believed to account for the extreme loneliness, even despair, that runs through most of his poetry.

INTRODUCTION As one of the most controversial American literary figures, Edgar Allan Poe has always attracted considerable attention from both critics and readers alike. Due to his allegedly eccentric personality and the dubious circumstances surrounding his death, the public perception of the writer has often been somewhat mythologized. When it comes to his works, Poe has been both critically acclaimed and disparaged, both acknowledged and disputed, but rarely ignored. As he left behind a significantly influential literary legacy, his place among the most important writers in American literature is today undeniable. Being both a journalist and a fiction writer, Poe produced numerous texts ranging from tales and poems to critical essays, reviews and newspaper articles.

Gardner 1 Edgar Allan Poe and Alan Parsons: All That We See or Seem is Nevermore Kimball Gardner Since their beginnings in the mind of a brilliant, misunderstood man, the works of Edgar Allan Poe have captured the imaginations and fears of audiences throughout the world. After his death, when his popularity began to grow, Poe’s works became more widely read and studied by both scholars and authors. As technology began to advance in the twentieth century, his works began to be adapted into short films and later, feature-length films. And, in the late twentieth century, a young progressive rock group named the Alan Parsons Project offered their adaptation of several of Poe’s works. In this paper, I will discuss their work on “A Dream within a Dream” and “The Raven,” from their album Tales of Mystery and Imagination—Edgar Allan Poe and how their adaptation enhances Poe’s effect.

The Development of the Short Story in the South
The Development of the Short Story in the South A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Virginia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy BY ROBERT CECIL BEALE Fredericksburg, Va. I ‘ 41.“ " ‘ ; .m‘iy‘ ‘ THE MICHIE COMPANY. PRINTERS ‘1“ L -. .L 1 Charlottesville. Virginia \‘ ; \_ 1. 1911 ‘1, * j\ “ 3x / "-2 ' UYa U. Va. Doctoral Dissertation 4&8 . win-pr .' « irwfiflfi PREFACE In regard to any piece of literary composition it is usually true that no one is more clearly conscious of defects and limi— tations than the author. The demands of his theme are so fre— quently and carefully reviewed by him and the investigations incident to his work so often yield results far below his expec- tations that there is little danger of his being too lenient a critic of his own achievement. In the present work much remains unaccomplished that the writer desired to perform. Accurate conclusions in many matters have not always been obtained; points of interest have eluded investigation; and facts have not always been at hand to support inferences that appeared rea— sonable. The result, imperfect as it is, is put forth with the hope that any merits that it may possess will enable it to be of some small service and that its defects will lead others to correc- tion and improvement. ' In the preparation of this work help and encouragement have been received from many sources. 'The sympathetic interest, the general guidance, and the critical assistance of Dr. Charles W. Kent are here gratefully acknowledged.

His insightful remarks, useful advice and continuous guidance and support helped me in writing and completing this work. I could not have imagined a better mentor. I would also like to thank my friends, family and partner for supporting me these past months and for enduring my numerous references to Poe and his works – which I made in every possible situation. Thank you for being there and for offering much-needed breaks with talk, coffee, cake and laughter. Last but not least, I am indebted to one more person: Edgar Allan Poe. His amazing – although admittedly sometimes rather macabre – stories have fascinated me for years and have sparked my desire to investigate them more profoundly. To all of you: thank you. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1: Introduction ................................................................................................................................ 6 1.
