Popularly thought of as a \"horror\" writer, Poe was also a philosophical aesthete, a satirist, a hoaxer, a psychologist and a prophet of the anxieties and preoccupations of the modern world. Alphabetically arranged, this book explores Poe's major works both in their own right and in terms of their impact on others, including Baudelaire, who translated his works into French; Debussy, Rachmaninoff and the Alan Parsons' Project, who set them to music; Roger Corman, Federico Fellini and Jean Epstein, who interpreted his visions for film audiences; and television shows such as \u003ci\u003eThe Six Million Dollar Man\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eTime Tunnel\u003c\/i\u003e, which borrowed his imagery (and, in the case of \u003ci\u003eThe Simpsons\u003c\/i\u003e, sent it up). A wide range of other responses to his compelling \u003ci\u003eTales of Mystery and Imagination\u003c\/i\u003e, his poetry and the theoretical writings, combine strongly to suggest that Poe's legacy will indeed last forevermore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55200499630454,"sku":"9780786494415","price":22.54,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_29652830.jpg?v=1738074223","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780786494415-poe-evermore","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
