Eureka de Edgar Allan Poe

Eureka

Autor Edgar Allan Poe
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 feb 2008
This volume contains Edgar Allen Poe's non-fiction work, "Eureka: A Prose Poem". Often published with the subtitle "An Essay on the Material and Spiritual Universe", it is a monograph on Poe's personal ideas about the universe and God, whom he frequently describes as an author. His last major work and largest non-fiction piece, "Eureka: A Prose Poem" comprises nearly 40,000 words. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in the mind of this seminal author, and would make for a worthy addition to any collection. Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) was an American author, editor, poet, and critic. Most famous for his stories of mystery and horror, he was one of the first American short story writers, and is widely considered to be the inventor of the detective fiction genre. Many antiquarian books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Initially composed by Poe as a public lecture towards the end of his career and considered by him the culmination of all his life's work, Eureka is an extended treatise about the creation, existence and the ultimate end of the world. An idiosyncratic blend of creative writing and scientific discourse, with unexpected forays into comedy and wordplay, this self-styled "prose poem" is a genre-defying masterpiece.

Although it baffled the reading public of its time, Eureka found many prominent admirers, from Charles Baudelaire to W.H. Auden, and has since assembled an audience receptive to its unique appeal as a compendium of European thought that anticipated many current theories and discoveries while also pioneering many elements of science-fiction aesthetics.

Recenzii

Eureka is a fascinating work. Read this essay carefully; there is much more to it than meets the eye

Notă biografică

Edgar Allan Poe (1909-1949) was an American writer and is often regarded the central figure of the United States' Romantic movement. He was one of the first American writers to become more famous in Europe than in his country of birth. Best known for his poetry and short mystery stories, he's a prominent figure in both the detective fiction and science fiction genres. His most notable works include the 1843 short story 'The Tell-Tale Heart' and the 1845 poem 'The Raven'.
