nové vydání klasické anglické četby Since
their first publication in the 1830s and 1840s, Edgar Allan Poe's
extraordinary Gothic tales have established themselves as classics of
horror fiction and have also created many of the conventions which
still dominate the genre of detective fiction.
Yet, as well
as being highly enjoyable, Poe's tales are works of very real
intellectual exploration. Abandoning the criteria of characterization
and plotting in favour of blurred boundaries between self and other,
will and morality, identity and memory, Poe uses the Gothic to question
the integrity of human existence. Indeed, Poe is less
interested in solving puzzles or in moral retribution than in exposing
the misconceptions that make things seem `mysterious' in the first
place. Attentive to the historical and political dimensions of these
very American tales, this new critical edition selects twenty-four
tales and places the most popular - `The Fall of the House of Usher',
`The Masque of the Red Death', `The Murders in the Rue Morgue; and `The
Purloined Letter' - alongside less well-known travel narratives,
metaphysical essays and political satires.
