要約、抄録、注釈等 "A biography of Edgar Allan Poe with an emphasis on his engagement with the scientists and scientific discoveries of his era"--Provided by publisher.,Tresch reveals Poe's obsession with science and lifelong ambition to advance and question human knowledge. Even as he composed dazzling works of fiction, he remained an avid and often combative commentator on new discoveries, publishing and hustling in literary scenes that also hosted the era's most prominent scientists, semi-scientists, and pseudo-intellectual rogues. In showing that Poe lived, thought, and suffered surrounded by science, Tresch shows that many of his most renowned and imaginative works can best be understood in its company.--Adapted from jacket.
