Extensive collection of ALL of Poe's work, including stories, poems, essays, and more. Organized by published works as well as alphabetically by genre.
In addition to a level-headed bio and lit analysis, there are video overviews of his life and the impact of women in his life. As a 3-year-old he witnesses the death of his mother, coughing blood from tuberculosis. "Bone deep memory of his mother." "Natural leader and athlete" "Sensitive nature..." "Weeping at the grave of a woman he loved..."
slide show of Poe's literary life with reproductions of important stories, essays, and poems. Love the opening photo. Good to show to students early on in class.
Wow. They've made everything they have of, by, or about Poe (from his lifetime) available as digital copies. Can read letters, turn the pages of books in their original published forms, and more in this amazing collection. Worthy of an assignment for pairs of students to read and then share with the class.
Several downloadable PDF files with lessons, goals and objectives, for teaching Poe. Centered around the work he produced while living and working in Philadelphia. Good suggestions for writing assignments.
simple lesson, but I like the glossary posted at end of article that includes vocabulary you want to know students understand. Good for review right at the beginning of the semester
