Edgar Allan Poe

The Works of Edgar Allan Poe, Edition Complete (Annotated)

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-The purpose of realizing this historical context is to approach the understanding of a historical epoch from the elements provided by the text. Hence the importance of placing the document in context. It is necessary to unravel what its author or authors have said, how it has been said, when, why and where, always relating it to its historical moment. The truth is that Poe was a complex type of strange life, we could say that he did not have it easy, after all he was the son of two puppeteers, one who abandoned him (his father) and another who died when he was still a child, he was taken in by a wealthy family but he was led to kill with his father and he was left without an assignment when he insisted on studying literature instead of law and his assignment was merged into the game... Of course we could also say that he would not have had it so Difficult not to have had such a complex way of being, after all, he was lucky to be welcomed by a wealthy (very wealthy) couple, who paid for his education in the best schools (also in Europe) and who, at except for his mother, he adored him. But neither Poe was an easy guy nor his father an understanding soul, the train crash was brutal and for history there is what we know that one and the other did and that we already have more details here.
