Edgar Allan Poe, His Life and Works: A five Volume series 2 – hinnat ja saatavuus

This is Volume 2 of a five series volume detailing Mr. Edgar Allan Poe life and Works. "Here is one of the finest scholars, one of the most original men of genius, and one of the most industrious of the literary profession of our country, whose temporary suspension of labor, from bodily illness, drops him immediately to a level with the common objects of public charity. There is no intermediate stopping-place, no respectful shelter, where, with the delicacy due to genius and culture, he might secure aid, till, with returning health, he would resume his labors, and his unmortified sense of independence." N. P. Willis "No man," Poe himself wrote, "has recorded, no man has dared to record, the wonders of his inner life." - Charles Dickens "While the other boys wrote mere mechanical verses, Poe wrote genuine poetry; the boy was a born poet. As a scholar he was ambitious to excel. He was remarkable for self-respect, without haughtiness. He had a sensitive and tender heart and would do anything for a friend. His nature was entirely free from selfishness." - Rev.
