Poe is frequently portrayed as an isolated idiosyncratic genius who was unwilling or unable to adapt himself to the cultural conditions of his time. Eliza Richards revises this portrayal through an exploration of his collaborations and rivalries with his female contemporaries. Richards demonstrates that he staged his performance of tortured isolation in the salons and ephemeral publications of New York City in conjunction with prominent women poets whose work sought to surpass. She introduces and interprets the work of three important and largely forgotten women poets: Frances Sargent Osgood, Sarah Helen Whitman, and Elizabeth Oakes Smith. Richards re-evaluates the work of these writers, and of nineteenth-century lyric practices more generally, by examining poems in the context of their circulation and reception within nineteenth-century print culture. This book will be of interest to scholars of American print culture as well as specialists of nineteenth-century literature and poetry.

Edgar Allan Poe is about to embark on "the one great purpose of my literary life," a magazine that would bring him fame and fortune. Griswold, his nemesis, has the financial backers under his control, and insists on sharing credit with Poe as his co-publisher, and the magazine--THE STYLUS--will include a monthly column by a hate-monger and nativist, "Arcton". Each refusal by Poe to consent to Griswold's unreasonable terms results in the death of one of Poe's faithful devotees, the women who followed him; those whom he loved most.

Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject English - Literature, Works, grade: 2,3, University of Bonn, language: English, abstract: The current work seeks to portray women's characters as they are depicted in the short stories "Ligeia" (1838) and "The Oval Portrait" (1842). There seems to be a connection between Poe's mother, whom he did not really know, his foster mother and the premature death of his wife with Ligeia's portrayal. The second story follows Poe's personal view that the most poetical topic in the world is the death of a beautiful woman. Approaches to questions such as who are these women and what do they symbolise; what position do they have in the narrator's life and how does their presence or absence affect his feelings within the sequence of events; and what interpretations can we offer with regard to the Gothic background and Poe's life will be offered.

Why was Edgar Allan Poe unable to form either emotional or sexual bonds with the women in his life? Why did he worship at the grave of his friend's mother-a woman he may have loved but who he could have never been intimate with? Why did he marry his 13 year-old cousin and what impact did her tragic death have on his literary creations? Why do the female characters in his short stories endure disturbingly sadistic punishment and torture at the hands of an almost overtly mad husband or acquaintance? Through both a feminist and psychoanalytic analysis, The Fall of the House of Poe attempts to explain Poe's morbid treatment of the female characters in his short stories by examining his own disturbingly tragic experiences with women throughout his short life. Ultimately this book elucidates unequivocally the acute psychological motivations for Poe's profoundly psychoanalytic tales of horror and imagination.

Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Literature - Modern Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Göttingen (Philosophische Fakultät), course: Beyond Principle and Philosophy: Edgar Allan Poe as an American Author, language: English, abstract: In this paper, it will be argued that this emphasis on visual sensations is directly related to the violence against women as it exposes the murderers' motives and drives, their course of action as well as their attempt to then distort the reader's view of the truth in order to cover their involvement. For the discussion of this thesis Poe's short stories "The Oval Portrait," "Morella", "Berenice" and especially "Ligeia" will be considered. Many of Edgar Allan Poe's short stories deal with a fixation on dying women as he famously states in "The Philosophy of Composition: "death, then, of a beautiful woman is, unquestionably, the most poetical topic in the world" (1621). The death of those women is often violent as they are murdered by a male character as a result of an "emotional estrangement between the male protagonist and a fated female" (Kennedy 118). Interestingly, the characters and the circumstances surrounding those deaths are described with an emphasis on the "lexical field of sight" (Marín-Ruiz 58) so that already "a cursory exposure to Poe's fiction leaves a strong impression of his recurrent emphasis on the eye" (Scheick 80). Detailed accounts of eyes, glances, gazes and vision keep reappearing in the selected stories, so that sight becomes one of the key elements of the tales.
