APPENDIX C

A PARTIALLY ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN DRAMA, FICTION, AND POETRY DEVOTED TO POE

This bibliography of imaginative literature devoted to Poe includes items only of American origin and does not include imitations of Poe's works or parodies which make no comment upon Poe. The bibliography is divided into 1) drama, 2) fiction, and 3) poetry. Annotation is limited chiefly to brief summaries of works of drama and fiction not discussed in the text of this study which are relatively inaccessible to the reader. No effort is made to record all reprintings of poems, especially those poems which have been anthologized frequently. In order to avoid explaining and repeating several lengthy titles, the following abbreviations are used:

Dedmond   Francis B. Dedmond. “Poe in Drama, Fiction, and Poetry: A Bibliography,” Bulletin of Bibliography, XXI (September-December, 1954), 107-114.
 
Poe-Ingram Collection   John Henry Ingram's Poe Collection in the Manuscripts Division of the Alderman Library at the University of Virginia.
 
Poe Miscellany   John Shelton Patton, compiler. “Poe Miscellany,” a six-Volume scrapbook on file in the Manuscripts Division of the Alderman Library at the University of Virginia. [page 205:]
 
Poe Printed Matter   A file of miscellaneous printed matter by and about Poe in the Manuscripts Division of the Alderman Library at the University of Virginia.

Although this is the most extensive bibliography on the subject, it makes no claim to being exhaustive. Whoever said that bibliographies are not finished but abandoned spoke a truth indeed.

DRAMA

Bleyer, Julius Mount. The Death of Poe's Wife. No. 19 in Werner's Readings and Recitations. New York: Edgar S. Werner, ca. 1915.

This is a one-act verse play in which Virginia lies dying while Poe composes “The Raven.”

Boehm, David. The Raven. A screenplay released by Universal Pictures in 1935. A typescript is on file in the Copyright Office.

Vollin, a mad and villainous surgeon, acknowledges Poe to be his inspiration. Poe does not appear in the picture.

Carr, John Dickson. The Man With a Cloak. A screenplay released by Metro-Goldwyn Mayer in 1951.

Based upon Carr's short story “The Gentleman from Paris,” this motion picture presents Poe masquerading as his own Dupin and solving a mystery similar to that in “The Purloined Letter.” Poe is the conventional Hollywood private eye, casual, flippant, and amorous. [page 206:]

Iander, J. Richard. Edgar Allan Poe. A three-act play for which copyright was obtained November 5, 1941. A typescript is on file in the Copyright Office. There is no record of production.

This play suffers as drama from adhering too closely to the facts of Poe's life.

Ketchum, Arthur. The Raven: a Play in Five Acts. Copyright obtained October 7, 1913. A typescript is on file in the Copyright Office. There is no record of production.

This is a romanticized, fictionalized, and disjointed account of Poe's life from his student days at the University of Virginia to his death.

Schmidt, Gladys L. The Raven's First Flight: A One-Act Play for Radio Broadcasting, in Scholastic, XXVI (February 2, 1935), 7-8.

The play dramatizes Poe's winning of The Baltimore Saturday Visiter contest in 1833.

Shipman, Samuel, and Joseph Bernard Rethy. Edgar Allan Poe: A Romantic Comedy Drama in Four Acts. Copyright obtained March 11, 1920. A typescript is on file in the Copyright Office. There is no record of production.

This play is a weird mixture of melodrama and farce uniting three episodes unrelated in Poe's life: his quarrel with John Allan, his courtship with Sarah Helen Whitman, and his death in Baltimore. The copyrighted fragment of a play by Rethy, cited above, is unmistakably an early version of the melodramatic element in this romantic comedy.
