How is this book unique? Font adjustments & biography included Unabridged (100% Original content) Formatted for e-reader Illustrated About The Man of the Crowd by Edgar Allan Poe "The Man of the Crowd" is a story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe about a nameless narrator following a man through a crowded London. Plot Summary: The story is introduced with the epigraph "Ce grand malheur, de ne pouvoir �tre seul" -- a quote taken from The Characters of Man by Jean de La Bruy�re. It translates to This great misfortune, of not being able to be alone. This same quote is used in Poe's earliest tale, "Metzengerstein". After an unnamed illness, the unnamed narrator sits in an unnamed coffee shop in London. Fascinated by the crowd outside the window, he considers how isolated people think they are, despite "the very denseness of the company around". He takes time to categorize the different types of people he sees. As evening falls, the narrator focuses on "a decrepit old man, some sixty-five or seventy years of age", whose face has a peculiar idiosyncrasy, and whose body "was short in stature, very thin, and apparently very feeble" wearing filthy, ragged clothes of a "beautiful texture". The narrator dashes out of the coffee shop to follow the man from afar. The man leads the narrator through bazaars and shops, buying nothing, and into a poorer part of the city, then back into "the heart of the mighty London". This chase lasts through the evening and into the next day. Finally, exhausted, the narrator stands in front of the man, who still does not notice him. The narrator concludes the man is "the type and genius of deep crime" due to his inscrutability and inability to leave the crowds of London.

The Man of the Crowd By Edgar Allan Poe IT WAS well said of a certain German book that "er lasst sich nicht lesen" - it does not permit itself to be read. There are some secrets which do not permit themselves to be told. Men die nightly in their beds, wringing the hands of ghostly confessors, and looking them piteously in the eyes - die with despair of heart and convulsion of throat, on account of the hideousness of mysteries which will not suffer themselves to be revealed. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Poes Erzählung bildet thematisch den Auftakt für seine Geschichte "Die Morde in der Rue Morgue" (1841), die ein Jahr später erschien. Bereits in "The Man of the Crowd" stellt Poe das Verbrechen in den Mittelpunkt seiner Kurzgeschichte - allerdings nicht als konkrete Tat, sondern als personifizierte Moralkategorie. Doch für die Rezeption bei Charles Baudelaire und dann später bei Walter Benjamin spielten nicht die Verbrechensthematik, sondern andere Aspekte eine wichtigere Rolle. Ihr Interesse an "The Man of the Crowd" orientierte sich vielmehr an der von Poe erstmals beschriebenen Großstadterfahrung seines Erzählers. Denn anders als im Mittelalter oder der frühen Neuzeit ist hier die - nun auch nächtlich durch Gaslaternen erleuchtete - Stadt kein vertrautes Umfeld sozialer Beziehungen mehr, sondern wird zur Bühne einer anonymen Menschenmasse. Gerade für den heutigen Leser, der sich meist unreflektiert in der Anonymität und Unwirtlichkeit belebter Großstädte bewegt, wird durch die Lektüre dieser Kurzgeschichte die Genese einer historisch völlig neuartigen sozialen Erfahrungswelt nachvollziehbar. Um Selbstverständlichkeiten der gegenwärtigen Lebenswelt einmal kritisch und unterhaltsam in den Blick zu bekommen, lohnt es sich diese Geschichte zu lesen - nicht nur für Literaturwissenschaftler. Natürlich wurde - wie bei allen Werken der ofd edition - die ursprüngliche Druckfassung nicht automatisiert kopiert, sondern neu übersetzt und sorgfältig editiert - die bessere Lesbarkeit und Gestaltung verhelfen so zu einem ungetrübten Lesegenuss. Neben der deutschen Fassung finden Sie in diesem Buch auch die englischsprachige Originalversion.

June J. Hwang’s provocative Lost in Time explores discourses of timelessness in the works of central figures of German modernity such as Walter Benjamin, Georg Simmel, Siegfried Kracauer, and Helmuth Plessner, as well as those of Alfred Döblin, Joseph Roth, and Hugo Bettauer. Hwang argues that in the Weimar Republic the move toward ahistoricization is itself a historical phenomenon, one that can be understood by exploring the intersections of discourses about urban modernity, the stranger, and German Jewish identity. These intersections shed light on conceptions of German Jewish identity that rely on a negation of the specific and temporal as a way to legitimize a historical outsider position, creating a dynamic position that simultaneously challenges and acknowledges the limitations of an outsider’s agency. She reads these texts as attempts to transcend the particular, attempts that paradoxically reveal the entanglement of the particular and the universal.

Why do images of entertainers abound in European literature and art since Romanticism? From Baudelaire to Picasso, from Daumier to Fellini, mimes, clowns, aerialists, and jesters recur in major works by continental artists. In Art as Spectacle, Naomi Ritter investigates this phenomenon and offers explanations that transcend the array of works discussed. Her analysis implies much about the triangle of creator, work, and audience that inevitably controls art. Although a broadly comparative study underlies Art as Spectacle, the book focuses mainly on examples from Germany and France. Three areas of argument-identification, primitivism, and transcendence-account for the performer's ubiquity in the arts of the last two centuries. Ritter shows that writers, painters, choreographers, and filmmakers have persistently identified with the entertainer, whose roots lie in primitive ritual: a source of all art. Accordingly, the artist also sees the player as morally or spiritually elevated. With three chapters on literature, a chapter comparing poetry to painting, and a chapter each on dance, the visual arts, and film, Art as Spectacle offers unprecedented scope on a compelling topic in comparative studies. By integrating such varied material into an original commentary on the image of the entertainers, this book provides an invaluable resource for all the disciplines it touches.
