Kremser, Felix: Edgar Allan Poe's Literary Theory and its Application in "The Fall of the House of Usher" GRIN VERLAG, März 2010, Besorgungstitel - vorauss. Lieferzeit 3-5 Tage. ISBN: 3640551540
Edgar Allan Poe's name is related to the American short story like none other in the history of American Literature. While Washington Irving is commonly seen as the creator of the short story, Edgar Allan Poe is regarded as the first to have realised its potential and the first to have created an aesthetical theory of the short story. This theory though, especially Poe's depiction of the skilful artist and his/her perfect way of creating art, gave rise to many heated discussions, which strongly shaped the image of Poe. Thus he is likely to be seen as the cold-blooded, emotionally unaffected author who creates art on demand, contriving compositions with an unparalleled precision and brilliancy. Many critics therefore rather based their criticism on the life and the person of Edgar Allan Poe, instead of his contributions to the development of literature. This work strictly wants to avoid to draw any populist parallels between the author Poe and the person Poe.The first part of this term paper therefore deals with Poe's literary theory as such. I will focus mainly on Poe's major concerns of effect and the genres of poetry and prose. Furthermore I will pose the question, what is the actual matter of Poe's theory, is it a profound concept or just a vague and hasty response to Emerson's The Poet, with the mere purpose of provoking his contemporaries and thus to get attentionSince the formulation of a theory always raises the question of its applicability, especially on the part of its originator, the second part will scrutinise to what extent Edgar Allan Poe stuck to his own principles. Is there a discrepancy between theory and practice in the work of Edgar Allan Poe, and if so how can this be explained His short story The Fall of the House of Usher will provide the paradigm, as it is in general, and even by Poe himself, considered one of his masterpieces. It is not the intention of said scrutiny to develop an overall-interpretation of the story, furthermore, the presented conclusions, drawn from the story's symbolism, do not claim exclusiveness, they rather present possible ways of reading next to which other perspectives can coexist with just the same plausibility.

Schweiggert, Alfons: Edgar Allan Poe und König Ludwig II. Anatomie einer Geistesfreundschaft, EOS VERLAG, November 2008 ISBN: 3830673477
Eine sensationelle Entdeckung zum 200. Geburtstag von Edgar Allan PoeFür ein nur einstündiges Gespräch mit dem amerikanischen Kultautor Edgar Allan Poe, ein Mythos schon zu Lebzeiten, wollte der legendäre König Ludwig II. von Bayern seinen Thron geben.Was war der Grund dafür Erstmals wird die mystische Geistes- und Seelenverwandtschaft der beiden genialen Persönlichkeiten aufgedeckt.Der legendenumwobene Bayernkönig entdeckte als einer der ersten in Deutschland das Werk des genialen amerikanischen Dichters und Magiers des Phantastischen und Abgründigen. Er schwärmte von Poe als einem Juwel und einem der größten Menschen, die je geboren wurden. Für ein einstündiges Gespräch mit Poe wollte er seinen Thron geben. Dies verwundert nicht, wenn man das Schicksal Edgar Allan Poes mit dem Ludwigs vergleicht. Die Ähnlichkeiten, auch hinsichtlich der künstlerischen Auffassung beider, sind geradezu frappierend.Für Charles Baudelaire war Edgar Allan Poe ein neuer Heiliger in der Gesellschaft der erlauchten Unglückseligen . Auch Ludwig II. darf diesem Kreis durchaus zugerechnet werden. Erstaunlicherweise wurde bislang auf die faszinierende enge geistig-seelische Beziehung beider weder in der Literatur über Poe noch in der über Ludwig II. auch nur mit einem Wort eingegangen.
