In 1809 a literary genius was born by the name of Edgar Allan Poe, impacting the world of literature using short stories, novels, and poetry that were all of a new style incorporating insanity, horror, and gruesome imagery beyond belief. In late 2004, a biography was developed by Marie Rose Napierkowski and Mary Ruby, showing the true upbringing of Poe, the creative lifestyle, and the list of the rewards he received during his time as a writer. Napierkowski and Ruby went on to say, "His poems and stories have influenced the literary schools of Symbolism and Surrealism as well as the popular genres of detective and horror fiction." Edgar Allan Poe was adopted in the year 1811 by John and Frances Allan, being raised in Baltimore, Maryland. He

Both of these writers used his poem "The Raven" to share some of their feelings about the author and uncovering hidden meanings from his work such as death or supernatural causes that they felt had an impact on his writing. One part of this analysis I found showed the true art form of Edgar Allan Poe was when they showed how he adds stressed and unstressed syllables to add meaning and also his ability to add pauses for suspense. Most of the analysis for "The Raven" in Napierkowski 's and Ruby 's dissolution can be found in many other writings by Poe. Napierkowski and Ruby seemed to lead into more of his creative genius by analyzing one of his poems and showing what each stanza tells us and also why each phrase or word is unique and benefits the overall work that Poe created. The overall tone of the passage seems to be admiration and curiosity about what went through this literary prodigy. The leading arguments in this case seem to be why Poe was one of the most prominent writers and why he impacted the lives of people today in education and through some cases …show more content…
Poe 's style is different from anyone else during this era using dark turns and shock value to excite the reader. However, most modern critics tend to look at Poe 's work in the sense of his construction and the way he builds his writing from the ground up. Even though modern critics focus mainly on his construction Napierkowski and Ruby focus more on his style and emotions when talking about his piece "The Raven." Napierkowski and Ruby seem to interpret more from their sources citing that Poe failed making his decision naming his executor of his literary estate as Wilmot Griswold. Griswold was partially a reason for Poe 's deep depressing state because of the image he created for Poe as an opium and alcohol addicted writer that suffered from extreme personal agony. Napierkowski and Ruby explained, "Griswold wrote in 1849, almost immediately after Poe’s death, that it is “a reflection and an echo of his own history." This did not look acceptable for Poe without regard to his death and where he left off writing. Napierkowski and Ruby did not seem like they very much agreed with the path that Griswold took because more and more of Poe 's audience started to interpret him as a drunk depressed addict rather than the writer of "The Raven."
This is one flaw I see within Napierkowski 's and Ruby 's work, it seems that most people don 't look at Edgar Allan Poe
