Excerpt from The Complete Poetical WorksPoe was entirely dependent upon him. A vio lent quarrel took place between the old man and his adopted son, and Poe, unable to sub mit calmly to the course of events, again left home, this time with the intention of proceed ing to Poland, to expend his energies in aiding the Poles in their struggles against Russia. How far he got is not known, but it is sup posed that he did not leave America, having been stopped by the intelligence that, on the 6th of September, Warsaw had fallen, carry ing with it the last hopes of the Polish insur gents. In the meanwhile, as if to widen the estrangement at home, Mr. Allan had taken unto himself a young wife - the beautiful Miss Paterson whilst Miss Royster, forgetful of her faith, was married to a wealthy man, a Mr. Shelton. Once more aimless, and prob ably resourceless, the chivalric young poet again sought his native province. Whether he returned to the home that was home no more is uncertain, but, from what is known of his proud spirit, it seems unlikely; if he did, however, his stay was of short duration, and his godfather's second wife having given birth to a son was the death-blow to Poe's prospects of succeeding to the property.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Complete Poetical WorksEdgar Allan Poe was born in Boston, on the 19th of January, 1809. He was named Allan after a wealthy and intimate friend of the family, and when both his parents died his godfather, who, although long married, was childless, adopted the little orphan, then only six years old. Even at this early age Poe was noted for his precocity as well as for his beauty, and Mr. Allan appears to have been extremely proud of his youthful protege, and to have treated him in many respects as his own son. The boy is stated to have been made quite a show-child of by his adopted father; a tenacious memory and a musical ear, we are informed, enabling him to learn by rote, and declaim to the evening visitors assembled at Mr. Allan's house, the finest passages of English poetry with great effect. "The justness of his emphasis, and his evident appreciation of the poems he recited," we learn, made a striking impression upon his audience, "while every heart was won by the ingenuous simplicity and agreeable manner of the pretty little elocutionist." Gratifying as these exibitions may have been to his godfather's vanity, the probable consequence of such a system of recurring excitements upon the boy's morbidly nervous organization could scarcely fail to be disastrous.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Edgar Allan Poe (/po/; 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. He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature as a whole, and 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. Odin’s Library Classics is dedicated to bringing the world the best of humankind’s literature from throughout the ages. Carefully selected, each work is unabridged from classic works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, or drama.
