Poe's writing reflected his literary theories, which he presented in his criticism and also in essays such as "The Poetic Principle". He disliked didacticism and allegory, though he believed that meaning in literature should be an undercurrent just beneath the surface. Poe also had a keen interest in cryptography and autography, writing several works on the subject.

Über Edgar Allan Poe

Edgar Allan Poe wurde am 19. Januar 1809 in Boston geboren und starb unter nicht vollständig geklärten Umständen am 7. Oktober 1849 in Baltimore. Er war ein bedeutender Vertreter der amerikanischen Romantik und hatte großen Einfluss auf die Entwicklung der europäischen Literatur. Poe war ein Meister in der erzählerischen Darstellung von Horror- und Gruselelementen und trug mit seinen fantastisch-unheimlichen Erzählungen maßgeblich zur Ausprägung des Genres der Schauergeschichte bei. Mit seiner Figur des Detektivs C. Auguste Dupin begründete Poe außerdem den modernen Kriminalroman. Seine Erzählung »Der Doppelmord in der Rue Morgue« gilt als Geburtsurkunde der Detektivgeschichte in der uns heute bekannten Form.
