EDGAR ALLAN POE

A CRITICAL STUDY

BY

ARTHUR RANSOME

"This very interesting study."

TIMES.

"This book describes Poe's sad and extremely lonely life, with all its pride and morbidness, and it also gives a subtle and clear a.n.a.lysis of his brilliant gifts."

STANDARD.

"Mr. Arthur Ransome has given us a workmanlike and readable book."

CHRONICLE.

"The study is thorough and conscientious, and as entertaining as a whole as it is in parts provocative."

SAt.u.r.dAY REVIEW.

"Always interesting, often ingenious, sometimes brilliantly written."

NATION.

"Prefaced with a biographical account which is quite one of the best sketches of Poe's oddly vagabond life that we have in English."

PALL MALL GAZETTE.

"It is possible that the grace and charm of Mr. Ransome's style may deceive some as to the serious import of his work; but it seems clear to us that in his critical study of Poe, Mr. Ransome has made a potent but mysterious person much more truthfully visible than before; and, in the larger matters, has shown himself one of the present time's most vital and original writers on philosophic criticism, one in whom the right instincts are mated with an enthusiastic and careful precision of a.n.a.lysis."

THOMAS LOVE PEAc.o.c.k

A CRITICAL STUDY

BY

A. MARTIN FREEMAN

"Mr. Freeman's study will be eagerly welcomed. He deals with all Peac.o.c.k's known writings, giving a.n.a.lysis of each; and he writes with a freshness, a searching clearness and thoroughness delightful in these days of so much slovenly, slipshod criticism. He sends one to Peac.o.c.k, and thereby does the best service a critic of Peac.o.c.k can do."

EVENING STANDARD.

"It is distinguished and critical, and captures the atmosphere of Peac.o.c.k."

OBSERVER.

"We recommend it to Peac.o.c.kians, and also to those who would become such; it reveals him better than any anthology could.... The book contains biography and criticism in a manner quite sufficient to equip the casual reader with a knowledge of the man and his books."

WORLD.

"Mr. Freeman's monograph recounts all that is known about the circ.u.mstances of Peac.o.c.k's career, and it contains also a good deal of acute criticism of his writings. It gives us many clues to interpretation, and helps us to understand the whimsical characteristics of a man who had a magic pen, and who was nothing if not original."

STANDARD.
