Edgar Allan Poe

Edgar Allan Poe

Jeffrey Meyers

Cooper Square Publishers Inc.,U.S.
2000
pokkari
This biography of Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849), a giant of American literature who invented both the horror and detective genres, is a portrait of extremes: a disinherited heir, a brilliant but exploited author and editor, a man who veered radically from temperance to rampant debauchery, and an agnostic who sought a return to religion at the end of his life. Acclaimed biographer Jeffrey Meyers explores the writer's turbulent life and career, including his marriage and multiple, simultaneous romances, his literary feuds, and his death at an early age under bizarre and troubling circumstances.

Edgar and Brigitte

Edgar and Brigitte

Rosemarie Bodenheimer

The University of Alabama Press
2016
sidottu
Edgar and Brigitte: A German Jewish Passage to America is the fruit of an extraordinary archive of personal journals, letters, speeches, and published writings left by Edgar and Brigitte Bodenheimer, who emigrated from Nazi Germany in 1933 and became American law professors. More German than Jewish, highly educated, and saturated to the core in the German cultural ideal of Bildung, Edgar and Brigitte embody many of the qualities of their generation of German Jews in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The couple’s encounters with the strange new dynamics of race, religion, and the workplace in their new American home offer a compelling account of the struggles that faced many immigrants with deep German roots. It is also an intimate portrait of a now-vanished German Jewish culture as it played out in the lives of Bodenheimer’s parents and her grandparents from the 1920s to the late 1960s, a story of emigration, assimilation, and the private struggles that accompany those forced shifts in orientation. The Bodenheimers’ letters and journals offer engaging perspectives into their personal lives that retrospective memories cannot match. Braiding intimate biography together with history and memoir, Edgar and Brigitte will appeal both to historians of the European Jewish diaspora and to readers interested in the struggles and resilience of people whose lives were upended by Hitler.

Edgar Allan Poe As Literary Critic

Edgar Allan Poe As Literary Critic

Edd Winfield Parks

University of Georgia Press
2010
pokkari
Edgar Allan Poe was one of the first major critics to develop and refine his critical theories through magazine articles and book reviews. Edgar Allan Poe as Literary Critic focuses on his interest in establishing an aesthetic for magazine literature, and Parks has examined Poe’s criticism at length. Poe’s efforts in the field of literary criticism have often been condemned as a rationalization of his own personal limitations as a writer, but this study contends that his critical theories far surpass such a narrow interpretation. Rather, Poe was “essentially a magazinist,” and therefore emphasized brevity, unity, and totality of effect and placed the highest value on literary types best suited to periodical literature.

Edgar Heap of Birds

Edgar Heap of Birds

Bill Anthes

Duke University Press
2015
sidottu
For over three decades, contemporary Native American artist Hock E Aye Vi Edgar Heap of Birds has pursued a disciplined practice in multiple media, having shown his paintings, drawings, prints, and text-based conceptual art throughout numerous national and international galleries and public spaces. In the first book-length study of this important artist, Bill Anthes analyzes Heap of Birds's art and politics in relation to the international contemporary art scene, Native American history, and settler colonialism. Foregrounding how Heap of Birds roots his practice in Cheyenne spirituality and an indigenous way of seeing and being in the world, Anthes describes how Heap of Birds likens his art to "sharp rocks"-weapons delivering trenchant critiques of the loss of land, life, and autonomy endured by Native Americans. Whether appearing as interventions in public spaces or in a gallery, Heap of Birds's carefully honed artworks pose questions about time, modernity, identity, power, and the meaning and value of contemporary art in a global culture.

Edgar Huntly

Edgar Huntly

Kent State University Press
1987
nidottu
Often described as a "gothic novel," this is a classic American tale of mystery and murder with exciting and dramatic plot twists. Charles Brockden Brown is the most frequently studied and republished practitioner of the "early American novel," or the US novel between 1789 and roughly 1820. This volume contains a critical edition of Charles Brockden Brown's Edgar Huntly, the third of his novels to be published in 1799 and the first to deal with the American wilderness. The basis of the text is the first edition, printed and published by Hugh Maxwell in Philadelphia late in the year, but the "Fragment" printed independently in Brown's Monthly Magazine earlier in 1799 supplies some readings in Chapters 17-20. The Historical Essay, which follows the text, covers matters of composition, publication, historical background, and literary evaluation, and the Textual Essay discusses the transmission of the text, choice of copy-text, and editorial policy. A general textual statement for the entire edition appears in Volume I of the series.

Edgar Cayce on Auras & Colors

Edgar Cayce on Auras & Colors

Carol Ann Liaros; Kevin J. Todeschi

ARE Press
2012
nidottu
For the late psychic Edgar Cayce, the aura provided a pictorial representation of an individual's health, thoughts, talents and life potentials as well as karmic lessons and even past lives. In a very real sense, the aura functions as a barometer of the whole self - body, mind and spirit. Psychic, Carol Ann Liaros and Cayce expert, Kevin J. Todeschi have joined together to present a unique volume that teaches you to access your intuitive self in order to see these auras and colours and then goes on to explain their meaning as based on the well-documented readings of Edgar Cayce. Their work explores colours and the human aura in a way that provides practical tools for understanding that can be applied in your own life right now. Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) is the most-documented psychic of all time with 14,306 readings archived at the chrity foundation he founded in 1931. Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of books have been written about and inspired by Cayce and his readings, but only one was actually authored by the psychic himself and that little best-selling book, Auras: An Essay on the Meaning of Colors, is included in this volume.
