"Believe nothing what you hear and half of what you see"

Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer, poet, author, editor, and literary critic who is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism and Gothic fiction in the United States, and of American literature.

Born: 19 January 1809, Boston, Massachusetts, United States

Died: 7 October 1849 (age 40 years), Washington Medical College

The circumstances surrounding Poe's death remain a mystery. He was found delirious on the streets of Baltimore, Maryland, and died shortly thereafter. Various theories have been proposed, including alcoholism, substance abuse, rabies, and even foul play, but the exact cause of his death has never been conclusively determined.

Poe is often credited with inventing the modern detective story with his character C. Auguste Dupin in "The Murders in the Rue Morgue." Dupin's analytical prowess set the stage for future fictional detectives, including Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes.

Poe briefly served in the United States Army under the alias "Edgar A. Perry." He enlisted in 1827 and attained the rank of sergeant major before seeking discharge to pursue a writing career. He also attended the United States Military Academy at West Point but was expelled after deliberately neglecting his duties.

Poe married his first cousin, Virginia Clemm, when she was just 13 years old, and he was 27. Their marriage, though unusual by modern standards, was reportedly loving. Virginia's early death from tuberculosis deeply affected Poe and influenced some of his later works.

Despite his literary success, Poe struggled financially throughout his life. He often faced poverty and had difficulty supporting himself through his writing alone. His famous poem "The Raven" brought him some recognition and acclaim, but it did not provide substantial financial rewards.

A friend gifted me the complete 10 volume Works by Edgar Allen Poe by Harper & Brothers circa 1910, because it was gifted to them and they just weren't interested in keeping it. Once I found out they were worth a little money, though, I had to tell the original friend owner to see if they wanted to try to sell them, which they do. So if you're interested let me know! #amreading #poe #edgarallenpoe #theraven #thetelltaleheart #classicbooks #vintagebooks #limitededitionbooks #rarebooks #oldbooks #books #bookset #bookthrifting #writeralexapostol https://www.instagram.com/p/CbiB7c2LQSn/?utm_medium=tumblr

So, hungry monsters*, here I am. 👋Hello. I offer to you '5 Short Graybles' (a who, what, why, when, where of Generally Gothic): 🕷My name is Hannah, & I am an adult human. 🕷I am from one country run by a straw-haired buffoon, & live in another country run by a straw-haired buffoon. 🕷To, I imagine, the displeasure of both aforementioned buffoons, I am half Middle-Eastern; that half of me presents predominantly as hair. 🕷My journey with the gothic began, around the age of 7, when I picked up a cloth-bound book with no title & locked myself in the bathroom devouring Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Tell-Tale Heart' sat cross-legged on the floor. 🕷My formal gothic studies ended on the grounds and within the walls of Horace Walpole's Strawberry Hill House, but one day I may return to an institution to gather some more letters (the little h, big p and d). Until then, I am a spooky nerd without affiliation. I hope you stick around as I stare deeper into the gothic, & the generally so; you are a very welcome collective someone to shout my findings back to, & with whom to engage in discussion. Wholeheartedly, I thank you 🖤. As always, I am open to requests, collaborations, submissions, & suggestions. And perhaps if I reach 1k I will think about turning around... 📖Bonus | Reading Recommendation: The latest issue of @CoffinBellJournal (of which I am associate editor) is out now! 🔗: Link in bio. *I phrased the options that way.
