Description

It has a historical context with research of the time - The Bells, and Other Poems by Edgar Allan Poe (born Edgar Poe; January 19, 1809 - October 7, 1849) was an American writer, poet, editor, 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 central figure of romanticism in the United States and of American literature as a whole, and was one of the earliest practitioners of the country's short story. He is also generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. Poe was the first known American writer to earn a living by writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career. Poe was born in Boston, the second child to actors David and Elizabeth "Eliza" Poe.Her father left the family in 1810, and her mother died the following year. Orphaned, the boy was taken in by John and Frances Allan from Richmond, Virginia. They never formally adopted him, but he was with them until adulthood.
