“Depend upon it, after all, Thomas, Literature is the most noble of professions. In fact, it is about the only one fit for a man. For my own part, there is no seducing me from the path.”from a letter by Edgar Allan Poe to Frederick W. Thomas (February 14, 1849).

Anyone is free to use information from this site for any legitimate purpose without charge as long as sources are properly noted. (Links to this site are welcome, and educational or artistic uses are encouraged. Wholesale lifting of our text or images, however, is not permitted — nor is the unacknowledged use of this material for student papers or commercial endeavors.) Schools may print and distribute any number of copies of these materials for use in class without special permission. 










Although substantially complete, various parts of this site are still under construction, and new material is constantly being added. Providing comprehensive and reliable information takes time, so please bear with us. (Proofreading pages, particularly historical items, requires considerable effort, and is likely to be a perpetual task.) We are currently in the process of giving the site a bit of a facelift, replacing the white background with a colored one (to reduce the harsh appearance and improve readability on the screen) and adding boxes to give pages a sense of visual continuity. (The box style of the heading changes somewhat to reflect the rank of that page in the overall hierarchy. The four main section division pages resemble the box at the top of the current page, and feature the image of Poe with his signature. Pages within each of these divisions have a slightly different style of box, and carry a navigation line at the top. The current page, titled “Main Menu,” is technically the “Home” page.) To support a wide range of browsers and access speed/load capabilities, we continue to use minimal images on most pages, and to use only HTML features which are broadly recognized. Generally, revised pages will appear with a yellow background. As we proceed, we will also be validating the HTML, although this will be an ongoing process and must be accomplished page by page.
