Edgar Allan Poe (/poʊ/; born Edgar Poe; January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849) was an American writer, editor, and literary critic. Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. Widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature as a whole, he was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story. Poe is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.
Born in Boston, Poe was the second child of two actors. His father abandoned the family in 1810, and his mother died the following year. Thus orphaned, the child was taken in by John and Frances Allan, of Richmond, Virginia. Although they never formally adopted him, Poe was with them well into young adulthood. Tension developed later as John Allan and Edgar repeatedly clashed over debts, including those incurred by gambling, and the cost of secondary education for the young man. Poe attended the University of Virginia for one semester but left due to lack of money. Poe quarreled with Allan over the funds for his education and enlisted in the Army in 1827 under an assumed name. It was at this time his publishing career began, albeit humbly, with an anonymous collection of poems, Tamerlane and Other Poems (1827), credited only to "a Bostonian". With the death of Frances Allan in 1829, Poe and Allan reached a temporary rapprochement. Later failing as an officer's cadet at West Point and declaring a firm wish to be a poet and writer, Poe parted ways with John Allan.
Stephen Edwin King (born September 21, 1947) is an American author of contemporary horror, supernatural fiction, suspense, science fiction, and fantasy. His books have sold more than 350 million copies, many of which have been adapted into feature films, miniseries, television shows, and comic books. King has published 54 novels, including seven under the pen name Richard Bachman, and six non-fiction books. He has written nearly 200 short stories, most of which have been collected in book collections. Many of his stories are set in his home state of Maine. His novella Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption was the basis for the movie The Shawshank Redemption which is widely regarded as one of the greatest films of all time.
King has received Bram Stoker Awards, World Fantasy Awards, and British Fantasy Society Awards. His novella The Way Station (1980) was a Nebula Award novelette nominee. In 2003, the National Book Foundation awarded him the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. His short story "The Man in the Black Suit" (1994) received the O. Henry Award. He has also received awards for his contribution to literature for his entire oeuvre, such as the World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement (2004), the Canadian Booksellers Association Lifetime Achievement Award (2007), and the Grand Master Award from the Mystery Writers of America (2007). In 2015, King was awarded with a National Medal of Arts from the United States National Endowment for the Arts for his contributions to literature.

Writer/director Peter Bradley brings Edgar Allan Poe's classic horror poem,THE RAVEN, to chilling life in a faithful, word-for-word adaption. Seen in numerous festivals in seven countries, and used as a teaching aid in Drama and English programs in the U.S., Canada, and the UK, THE RAVEN is greatly inspired by German expressionist cinema of the 1920's. Based not completely in reality, but not completely in fantasy, one man's self-induced torture over the loss of his lover manifests itself and pushes him over the edge of sanity. This stylized piece captures the twisted, tortured world of Poe in a simple, yet highly detailed way that has to be seen and heard to be believed.

Animação renderizada no Blender 2.69. The Raven ("O Corvo") é um poema do escritor e poeta norte-americano Edgar Allan Poe. Ele foi publicado pela primeira vez em 29 de Janeiro de 1845, no New York Evening Mirror. É um poema notável por sua musicalidade, língua estilizada e atmosfera sobrenatural provenientes tanto da métrica exata, permeada de rimas internas e jogos fonéticos, quanto do talento singular de Poe, um dos maiores expoentes tanto do romantismo quanto da própria literatura americana. Neste poema, que apresenta uma temática típica do romantismo, a figura do misterioso corvo que pousa sobre o busto de Pallas (ou Atena, na maioria das traduções feitas para o português como a de Fernando Pessoa) representa a inexorabilidade da morte e seu impacto sobre o personagem, o qual, no s...

As relações entre Poe e as mulheres de sua vida - mãe, esposa, amante e musa - eram muito tênues, desastrosas na pior das hipóteses, por outro lado forneceram inspiração e estimulo para alguns dos mais influentes e aterradores contos do inicio do século XIX. Viajando por Nova York, Virginia e Baltimore, Mina desvenda as tortuosas e peculiares relações de Poe. Interligando os acontecimentos, nos leva a mente de Poe e suas mulheres através das próprias cartas, diários e escritos publicados.

To get you ready for Halloween. An Evening with Edgar Allan Poe is a 52-minute film which features Vincent Price, in front of a live audience, reciting Edgar Allan Poe's stories.
The story begins with the unnamed narrator arriving at the house of his friend, Roderick Usher, having received a letter from him in a distant part of the country complaining of an illness and asking for his help. As he arrives, the narrator notes a thin crack extending from the roof, down the front of the building and into the lake. Although Poe wrote this short story before the invention of modern psychological science, Roderick's condition can be described according to its terminology. It includes a form of sensory overload known as hyperesthesia (hypersensitivity to textures, light, sounds, smells and tastes), hypochondria (an excessive preoccupation or worry about having a serious illness) and acute anxiety. It is revealed that Roderick's twin sister, Madeline, is also ill and falls ...
Fear, paranoia, terror, yearning—such are the themes synonymous with the works of Edgar Allan Poe. But just how did this troubled author known as the "Master of the Macabre" come to create some of the most terrifying and haunting works of all fiction? What happened in his early childhood that significantly altered the young mind of Poe? Where did the author's haunting despair and longing for the dead come from? What led him to excessive drinking and opium smoking as a way of escaping reality? And just what were the circumstances behind his mysterious and still unresolved death? These questions and more will be answered in this unique and exciting documentary as we follow in the footsteps of Poe to discover the mystery behind the man who wrote such classics as "The Raven," "The Tell-Tale H...
Edgar Allan Poe (19 de enero de 1809 – 7 de octubre de 1849), escritor estadounidense, incluye poemas, cuentos y una novela, aparte de otros escritos. Sus ficciones abarcan múltiples géneros, como el terror, la aventura, la ciencia ficción y la detectivesca, un género del que se le atribuye la invención. Estas obras son generalmente consideradas parte del movimiento del romanticismo oscuro, una reacción literaria al trascendentalismo de la época.Sus escritos ensayísticos reflejan sus teorías literarias: su desacuerdo con el didacticismo y la alegoría. En una crítica, señala que el significado en la literatura debe subyacer justo debajo de la superficie; las obras cuyos significados son demasiado obvios dejan de ser arte.Poe buscaba la originalidad en sus obras y le disgustaban los proverbi...
A crime has been committed
I call for justice in the name of the Lord
The truth has been subverted
The instigator must be put to the sword
For the God that we serve is a vengeful God
Let me remind you of that!
As for the perpetrator
I will expose him as a cheat and a fraud
For every word he's uttered
Is a deception for an earthly reward
Will he laugh to himself to his dying day
With his last breath will he smile and say...
What fools people are!
What fools people are!
What FOOLS...
People are!
Now God in all His wisdom
Has chosen my voice to deliver His words
The lies of all blasphemers
Will drown in silence, the truth will be heard
And the Arm of the Lord wields a mighty sword
I can assure you of that!
And as for Poe the Sinner
I now will judge him by the faith I hold dear
And after deep reflection
I find him GUILTY, my conscious is clear
Could his black words be read any other way?
Sometimes I sigh to myself and say...
What fools people are
What fools people are
What FOOLS...
People are!
(Reynolds! Reynolds!)
Say when we joined the army
That he deserted, people don't like a rat
At university,
Thrown out for cheating, they'll all believe that!
If I alter a line, then his poem won't rhyme
Father, forgive me my sins!
And now he stands convicted
I will commit him to the care of the Lord
Forsaken! Forgotten!
A veil of silence, his eternal reward!
Under a dark, everlasting cloud
Sometimes it's hard not to shout out loud
What fools people are!
What fools people are!
What blissfully ignorant FOOLS...
People are!
And if the sheep have a mind to stray
I have to show them the righteous way...
What fools people are!
What fools people are!
What ignorant, bloody FOOLS...
People are!
