Abstract

The article presents a perspective on the literary works of Edgar Allan Poe. Being noted are Poe's incantatory techniques, which further the general effort to nullify the words with which it is made. The author stresses that Poe's poetry is pure negation and that it does not acquaint with supernal beauty that a writer could respect for the major tales which are great and trail-blazing realizations of inner experience. Moreover , the author states that Poe was deep into his own transcendentalism and is ready to claim it as the only authentic form.
