Description
The Raven Edgar Allan Poe (1809 - 1849) was an American writer and literary critic. Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is widely regarded as a one of the key figures of American Literature Romanticism and was one of the United States earliest practitioners of the short story. Equally Poe is often considered the inventor of both the detective fiction genre and helping the emergence of the science fiction genre. With all this still to this day "The Raven" stands out as the most often synonymous with his name. Gustave Doré (1832-1883) was one of the busiest, most in-demand artists of the 19th century, made his name illustrating works by such authors as Rabelais, Balzac, Milton, and Dante. The engravings here made just before his death (and published posthumous) are a example of the skill he possessed to bring such vivid tales to life. Here they are presented in a new way. Not with single line accompaniments but whole stanzas to shed a new way at seeing them both.
