The Old Arm-Chair
Author: Eliza Cook
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 27
Book Description
The most beloved poem by Eliza Cook, "The Old Armchair", tells a touching tale of a young woman's attachment to the chair. It was no ordinary chair, but the one where her mother nursed her as a baby, sat in and told her stories, and ultimately, was where she died. It's a gracefully written work which will pull on the heartstrings of anyone with strong family ties.

Student Companion to Edgar Allan Poe
Author: Tony Magistrale
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313007136
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
The contributions of Edgar Allan Poe have withstood the test of time; his best poems and fiction are more popular and carry greater significance now than they did during his own era. This highly readable introduction to the life, times, and major works of Poe offers fresh interpretations of timeless masterpieces like The Raven and The Purloined Letter. Carefully considering important thematic elements as well as genre, this book organizes the works of Poe into four significant groupings: the poetry, Vampiric love stories, tales of psychological terror, and the detective stories. Close readings are given for a selection of the most important works that represent Poe's canon of writings, including the chilling Tell Tale Heart and The Black Cat. This introductory study to Edgar Allan Poe begins with a concise biographical chapter that explores Poe's troubled experiences. The Literary Heritage chapter chronicles Poe's influence on other writers, artists, and filmmakers who followed. This work examines the major poems from Poe's canon, with special attention to those works that are most often taught and anthologized. Poe's most famous tales of terror and revenge are juxtaposed because they all revolve around murders and the elements of terror associated with the act of killing. Likewise, his love stories are brought together in a chapter that deals with vampirisim and gender. The final chapter, The Origins of the Detective Tale, examines Poe's tales of ratiocination, and traces the evolution of many popular culture super sleuths to Poe's Dupin. A selective bibliography of biographical and critical works on Poe, including contemporary reviews, completes this thorough volume. Students, general readers, and fans of all things Gothic will enjoy the fascinating insights this volume offers.
