Text-01 — “The Raven” — late 1844, no original manuscript or fragments
are known to exist (but this version is presumably recorded in Text-02) — (Having completed the poem, Poe travelled from
New York to Philadelphia, probably at the end of 1844 or within the first two weeks of 1845. He originally attempted to sell the
poem to his friend George Rex Graham for publication in Graham’s Magazine. Graham, however, not only declined the
poem but condemned it, a decision he would come to regret. Graham did collect $15 for Poe, but as charity rather than the purchase
price for the poem. In part to correct this mistake in turning down what became an immediate sensation, Graham published
Poe’s essay “The Philosophy of Composition” in 1846, in which Poe describes, somewhat imaginatively,
the method by which he created the poem. When Poe returned to New York, “The Raven” was then taken to George
Hooker Colton, editor and founder of the newly established American Review, who printed it in the second issue, having
apparently bought the poem for another $15.)

B. Minor (of the Southern Literary Messenger), and C. F. Briggs (of the Broadway Journal) — see items

Quarles, gives a wild and shivery poem, which he calls the Raven. It is written in a Stanza unknown before to gods, men, and

Forgeries:
“The Raven “ — T. O. Mabbott notes that “A ‘complete
manuscript’ reproduced in Muse Anthology of Modern Poetry (New York, 1939) is generally regarded as a recent
concoction” (Poems, 1969, p. 364). This manuscript is different from the one in the Gimbel collection (Text-16
above), which is considered authentic, as well as the forgery also in the same collection.
“The Raven” — (a forgery by Joseph Cosey, now in the Gimble Collection,
Philadelphia Free Public Library) (This elaborate forgery contains the full poem, on five separate pages, signed at the
end “Respectfully Y r Ob t Ser t , Edgar A. Poe.”)
