Abstract In a previously unpublished essay, Elma Mary Gove Letchworth (1832–1921) details her visits to the Fordham, New York, cottage of American poet, critic, and short story writer Edgar Allan Poe (1809–49). Her account provides a young girl's impressions of the famous author and insights into Poe's domestic life, humor, and fondness for children. The present paper examines Letchworth's essay and compares it with the reminiscences of other acquaintances of Poe, including a similar article written by her mother, Mary Gove Nichols (1810–84), in order to evaluate the accuracy of Letchworth's account.

Abstract:
This paper delves into the long-debated tensions that critics have found in Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849)’s writings, which have placed him as a liminal figure between the Enlightenment and Romanticism. In particular, I will maintain that these tensions are representative of the contradictions inherent in the modern project, which I will argue are present in Poe’s writings and which situate Poe’s texts as both a symptom of and a reaction to the pathologies of modernity. To this end, I will consider Max Horkheimer and Theodor W. Adorno’s Dialectic of Enlightenment (1944), arguing that the problems addressed in the volume were foreshadowed by Poe’s writings a century earlier. After a brief introduction, I will analyse the widely-discussed “The Purloined Letter” (1844) and the attitudes towards rationality that Poe presents in the story. I will then explore the lesser-known “The Colloquy of Monos and Una” (1841),2 where Poe anticipates some of the problems that Horkheimer and Adorno voiced, most notably the confusion between progress and technification.

Pretende-se analisar o romance The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, de Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849), publicado em 1838 pela editora Harper & Brothers. Dentre vários temas envolvendo motins, tempestades, ataques de animais selvagens, antropofagia, naufrágios etc., a narrativa em questão relata uma experiência vivenciada na ilha de Tsalal, parte de um arquipélago situado no extremo sul. Os habitantes dessa região insólita, todos negros, simulam cordialidade, mas, em segredo, tramam a ruína dos nautas. O romance foi recorrentemente concebido como expressão do racismo de Poe ou como desdobramento de traumas e angústias do autor. Buscar-se-á analisar algumas leituras psicologizantes e biografistas para, em seguida, estudar a representação desse território insular e de seus habitantes levando-se em consideração dois lugares-comuns que Edgar Alan Poe retomou: a obrigação da hospitalidade e o locus horrendus que, no caso, foi empregado para retratar Tsalal.Palavras-chave: Edgar Allan Poe; locus horrendus; hospitalidade.

En este artículo se analiza la recepción que de la obra de Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) realizó el poeta español Juan Eduardo Cirlot (1916-1973) y, especialmente, de su poema «Ulalume», admirado por Cirlot como uno de los textos más importantes de la poesía moderna. Interpretar el ciclo Bronwyn desde la teoría del símbolo implícita en «Ulalume» permitirá ir más allá de la discusión de deudas literarias para plantearse la comprensión del símbolo en la obra de Cirlot en relación con el legado del romanticismo. Cirlot agudiza el componente negativo de lo simbólico que caracteriza el poema de Poe (distancia entre lo presente simbolizante y lo ausente simbolizado) para situarlo en el centro de su práctica poética. El autor de Bronwyn perfila, de esta forma, una concepción trágica del símbolo, dividida entre el nihilismo y un particular misticismo sin fusión última.

Abstract:
En algunos cuentos como The black cat y The imp of the perverse, el escritor estadounidense Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) trata de dar una explicación de la actitud de los personajes protagónicos haciendo uso de su concepción de la “perversidad”. En los cuentos mencionados hace un esbozo de lo que podría ser una teoría de la perversidad, donde son destacables las alusiones al poco o nulo trato que filósofos y moralistas han dado a la cuestión. El presente artículo tiene como objetivo dar un primer paso en el trato filosófico de la perversidad tal y como la entiende Poe. Para ello, el escrito está dividido en dos grandes partes: la primera explorará la noción de perversidad en cuentos como The black cat y The imp of the perverse, mientras que la segunda, explorará las posibles doctrinas filosóficas y teológicas que podrían emular el concepto que Poe maneja. Trataré de probar que efectivamente Poe tiene razón cuando dice que su concepto de perversidad no ha sido abordado por la filosofía y la teología del modo que él lo expone.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Palmer-Pendleton sealing and exploring expedition (1829–1831) was the first American voyage of discovery to the Antarctic that had official government sanction. For the writer Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849), this expedition was an important landmark in an age when science was beginning to change the American continent socially, politically, and geographically. The shift away from Jefferson's agrarian Utopia was marked tangibly by increased industrialisation, the advent of the railroad, the growth of scientific societies, the beginning of elite professionalisation in the sciences, and this major American Antarctic voyage. In the same year as the expedition left the US, Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881), philosopher and author, recorded the effect that such scientific and technological changes had wrought upon the literary artist when he characterised the era metaphorically as: ‘the Age of Machinery in every outward and inward sense of that word.’ The belief that a repetitive, blunt mechanism that stifled artistic imagination had entered society led Poe to offer a stark criticism of science and scientific method in his tale ‘MS found in a bottle’ (1832). This tale, written shortly after the return of the Palmer-Pendleton expedition, centres upon a voyage to the Antarctic and embodies some of Poe's finest early writing. Interleaved with the critique of science are contemporary themes of discovery, and the Romantic preoccupation with man's relationship to nature.

Two of the recurrent topics in Edgar Allan Poe’s (1809-1849) work are the origin and order of the world, which this author considered expressions of a superior spiritual reality, and for the approach of which he wrote some texts that went from the philosophy of furniture and landscaping to cosmology in an attempt to explain the sense of the physical world for human beings, as well as its impact on them from forms, magnitudes and distribution.

Abstract:
Transcending the boundaries of literature, the works of Edgar Allan Poe and Stanislaw Lem contribute to a dialogue between literary, philosophical, and scientific cultures. A critical approach to these writers that ignores the epistemic dimension in their works opens itself to the charge of misunderstanding their artistic goals and aspirations. In my dissertation I thus define, justify, and conduct an interdisciplinary study of Poe and Lem's works.
My project is underwritten by the epistemological assumption that literary works, and notably works of fiction, can make a contribution to knowledge that can be assessed in terms of interdisciplinary criteria. In the first chapter, where I discuss literature and knowledge within the interdisciplinary context, I examine various epistemological arguments in light of my central assertion. Next I examine the concepts involved in the discussion of literary works. Following the pragmatic re-orientation in literary and philosophical aesthetics, many fundamental concepts we take for granted--artworks, fictions, and texts among them--require exact re-examination and definition. Consequently, in Chapters Two and Three I review and refine the recent theories concerning the nature of works of art, the specificity of literary fictions, and the problem of literary interpretations.
My subsequent discussion of Poe and Lem is built on the theoretical base of (literary) epistemology and analytical aesthetics. I study Poe and Lem's literary fictions and theoretical essays, and the contributions they make to various fields of inquiry. In the process I critique, and sometimes refine, the explicit and implicit hypotheses articulated in their works. Specifically In Chapters Four and Five I discuss strategic and game theoretic models in the interpretation of fiction, including the concepts of communication and rationality. In Chapter Six, completing the epistemological circle inaugurated in Chapter One, I discuss the epistemological and cosmological theories proposed in Poe's "Eureka".

Analisamos diversas traduções em língua portuguesa brasileira de The Tell-Tale Heart, um conto do escritor norteamericano Edgar Allan Poe que apresenta obstáculos tidos como intransponíveis na tradução. A partir da análise comparativa entre o texto em inglês e suas respectivas traduções, analisamos as escolhas de palavras dos tradutores e suas soluções para os itens mais complexos do texto, bem como as diferenças de interpretação de itens lexicais simples. Para fins de embasamento teórico, recorremos a postulados críticos e teóricos diversos tais como os da Literatura Comparada, Teoria Literária, teorias de tradução e interpretação. Inicialmente, fazemos uma análise das contribuições de cada uma dessas áreas, para depois partirmos para as análises propriamente ditas.

Abstract:
This study traces archetypal images in selected prose fiction by Edgar Allan Poe and shows his consistent use of such imagery throughout his career, and outlines the archetypal images that Poe uses repeatedly throughout his works: the death of the beautiful woman, death and resurrection, the hero's journey to the underworld, and the quest for forbidden knowledge. The study examines Poe's use of myth to establish and uphold archetypal patterns. Poe's goal when crafting his works was the creation of a single specified effect, and to create his effects, he used the materials at hand. Some of these materials came from his own subconscious; however, a greater portion came from a lifetime of study and his own understanding of the connections between myth and archetypal images.

The goal of the dissertation is the comparison of fantastic tales of the romantic writer Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) and the Brazilian writer, who also produced stories of the fantastic genre, Machado de Assis (1839-1908). The predominant issue is how the two authors who lived in different eras and in different countries so diverse socioeconomically may have their supernatural works compared. To answer this disturbing question, some clues of Poean influence on the fantastic tales from the Brazilian writer were obtained, such as the celebrated translation of Poe's poem "The Raven" (1845), made by Machado (or "O Corvo", as translated by himself in 1883); it is also important to our studies to analyse the quotes in newspapers in which Machado wrote, such as o Diário do Rio de Janeiro (1866) and Gazeta de Notícias (1895), as well as the comparison between the short stories “O Espelho” (1882) and “Sem olhos” (1876), by the Brazilian writer, and “William Wilson” (1839) and “Ligeia” (1838), by Poe.
O principal objetivo da dissertação é a comparação dos contos fantásticos do escritor romântico norte-americano Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) e do escritor brasileiro Machado de Assis (1839-1908), que também produziu narrativas do gênero fantástico. A principal questão é como dois autores, que viveram em épocas diferentes e em países tão distintos, podem ter suas obras comparadas pelo viés do fantástico. Para responder a essa inquietante pergunta, existem pistas da influência poeana nos contos fantásticos do brasileiro: uma, pela célebre tradução machadiana do poema “The Raven” (1845), ou “O Corvo”, como foi traduzido por Machado, em 1883, bem como citações do norte-americano, nos jornais em que Machado publicava, como o Diário do Rio de Janeiro (1866) e a Gazeta de Notícias (1895), além da comparação dos contos “O Espelho” (1882) e “Sem olhos” (1876), para tentar provar a influência, e dois do norte-americano, “William Wilson” (1839) e “Ligeia” (1838).

Abstract:
The purpose of this literary research project is the analysis of the thematic content as well as the formal devices of five of the poems written by Edgar Allan Poe. In order to connect and find the common concepts that pertains to this research, the following poems were chosen: “Annabel Lee” (1849); “Leonore” (1845); “To Helen” (1831); “The sleeper” (1831); and “Ulalume” (1847). In spite of the importance of poetry for Poe, it is noticeable the lack of pieces of research about this issue when compared with the number of researchers about his short stories. With this in mind, our attempt with this work is to make a study regarding one of the most relevant and recurrent subject in his poems: the presence of women, who were an unsolved issue in his entired life. Five poems have been chosen to this purpose, and converging on the concept of women as ethereal symbols and absent lovers existing beyond the limits of the terrestrial body. These descriptions of an idealized concept of women made contrast with some lewd female characters commonly developed by other American authors that were also concerned with horror stories. Our attempt is to take the transgressive allusions present in these poems in the light of Poe`s own background through his life in the American puritan society.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES)
Edgar Allan Poe afirma a respeito de seu poema The raven, em seu ensaio The philosophy of composition, que “[...] nenhum ponto de sua composição se refere ao acaso, ou à intuição, que o trabalho caminhou, passo a passo, até completar-se, com a precisão e a sequência rígida de um problema matemático”, demonstrando, por isso, que ele entendia ser o processo criativo um ato puramente lógico, consciente e analítico. E, de fato, a análise de seus textos comprova a proposição citada. Além disso, o autor americano é considerado por grande parte da crítica literária como o mestre do horror, figurando alguns de seus textos no cânone das obras primas do fantástico, sendo quase que indispensável a presença de algum de seus contos em uma coletânea dessa categoria literária. Partindo-se, então, desses elementos foi possível levantar a hipótese de que, como a obra poeana está tão intimamente relacionada ao fantástico, a análise de seu racional e sistemático método composicional poderá conduzir à inclusão de novos elementos à estrutura já existente da literatura fantástica. Assim, a presente pesquisa procurou sistematizar o peculiar modus operandi de Poe através da análise de seus contos The black cat, The fall of the house of Usher, The oval portrait, The man of the crowd, William Wilson, Ligeia, e ensaios The philosophy of composition Philosophy of furniture e The poetic principle, para em seguida contrastar os resultados obtidos com as teorias do fantástico, em especial a de Todorov, permitindo estabelecer, dessa forma, pouco a pouco, outra leitura da literatura fantástica, sob a ótica da própria teoria pessoal de Edgar Allan Poe
Edgar Allan Poe said about his poem The Raven, in his essay The philosophy of composition, that [...] no one point in its composition is referrible either to accident or intuition - that the work proceeded, step by step, to its completion with the precision and rigid consequence of a mathematical problem. thereby demonstrating that he understood the creative process is a purely logical, conscious and analytical. And indeed, analysis of his texts proves the proposition cited. In addition, the american author is seen by much of literary criticism as the master of horror, featuring some of his texts in the canon of masterpieces of fantastic, with almost indispensable the presence of some of his tales in a collection of this literary category. Starting from those factors, it was possible to hypothesize that as the Poe‟s work is so closely related to the fantastic, the analysis of their rational and systematic compositional method may lead to inclusion of new elements the existing structure of fantastic literature. Thus, this research sought to systematize the peculiar modus operandi of Poe through the analysis of his short stories The black cat, The fall of the house of Usher, The oval portrait, The man of the crowd, William Wilson, Ligeia, and the essays The philosophy of composition, Philosophy of furniture and The poetic principle, then to contrast the results with the theories of fantastic, particularly Todorov‟s, establishing, thus, little by little, another reading of fantastic literature, from the perspective of their own Edgar Allan Poe‟s personal theory

O propósito desta tese é o de estabelecer analogias e contrastes entre Edgar Allan Poe e Alphonsus de Guimaraens em relação aos preceitos estéticos que decidiram imprimir a sua produção poética, mormente quanto aos temas de amor (Eros) e morte (Tânatos). Procuramos demonstrar que esses matizes temáticos são trabalhados sob a angulação do góticomelancólico a fim de se atingir o sublime. Nos quatro primeiros capítulos, teorizamos sobre como o gótico, a melancolia e o sublime podem ser alinhavados poeticamente. No quinto e sexto capítulos, discutimos os modi operandi que Poe e de Alphonsus empregam nessa triangulação entre traços góticos, melancolia e o sublime. No último capítulo, valemo-nos em grande parte das teorias freudianas para demonstrar qual o resultado do jogo góticomelancólico entre Eros e Tânatos na poesia romântico-simbolista desses artistas.
The intent of this study is to draw analogies and contrasts between Edgar Allan Poe and Alphonsus de Guimaraens vis-à-vis the aesthetic principles they decided to impress upon their poetic work, chiefly as far as the themes of love (Eros) and death (Thanatos) are concerned. We have endeavored to describe that these poetic overtones are addressed from a gothic-melancholic angle in order to reach the sublime. In the first four chapters, we theorize on how the gothic, melancholy and the sublime can be intertwined poetically. In the fifth and sixth chapters, we discuss the modi operandi that Poe and Alphonsus employ in this tripartite relationship of gothic motifs, melancholy and the sublime. In the last chapter, we make use of Freudian theories to a large extent so as to demonstrate the outcome of this gothicmelancholic interplay between Eros and Thanatos in the romantic-symbolist poetry of these artists.

Abstract:
O trabalho tem por objetivo verificar de que forma os avanços científicos e tecnológicos da humanidade influenciaram a obra de Edgar Allan Poe e de Machado de Assis. A análise propõe revelar o olhar desses escritores acerca das novas possibilidades que eram oferecidas à sociedade com o intuito maior de evidenciar o papel da literatura nesse processo, uma vez que o homem é capaz de enxergar todo o comportamento de uma época e, conseqüentemente, a si mesmo, através da obra literária. Essa atitude de “olhar para trás” e para “dentro de si mesmo”, acredita-se, permite que o homem avance ainda mais. Para realizar a análise proposta, a pesquisa utiliza-se de conceitos como o de intertextualidade e interdisciplinaridade, muito caros à Literatura Comparada, com o fim de promover relações entre as diferentes áreas do saber – Literatura e Ciência –, entre os diferentes escritores e, por fim, entre os diversos gêneros literários que constituem o corpus do presente estudo. Após um breve panorama da história do desenvolvimento dos avanços científicos e tecnológicos da humanidade, procede-se às análises dos textos selecionados, procurando apontar e relacionar o pensamento dos escritores, provando que idéias sobre os avanços científicos e tecnológicos estão presentes na produção literária de cada um. Por fim, após o confronto estabelecido durante todo o trabalho entre o pensamento e o posicionamento dos escritores, discutese o papel da literatura no desenvolvimento e avanço da humanidade.
The paper aims to verify how the writings of Edgar Allan Poe and Machado de Assis had been influenced by the humanity' scientific and technological advances. The analysis proposes to reveal the sight of these two writers over the new possibilities that had been offered to the society, with the main objective of emphasizing the literature role in this process, considering that the human being is able to see the behavior of an entire period of time and consequently to himself through the literary work. This action of “looking back” and of “looking inside”, believes this research, allows him advance still more.
