Poe and The Masque of the Red Death
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page research paper/essay that examines Edgar Allan Poe’s short story “The Masque of the Red Death.” This short story has been extensively interpreted as an allegory by scholarship. Situated within a canon that is renowned for its chilling effect on the reader, as well as Poe’s often enigmatic plots, “The Masque of the Red Death” can also be viewed as representing the apex of this thematic trend in Poe’s work as this story can be interpreted as the embodiment of humanity’s instinctive reaction against the knowledge that everyone will eventually succumb to death’s ultimate dominion. This interpretation becomes evident by examining the structure of the narrative, the characterization and, most prominently, by the way in which Poe suggests the identity of the narrator. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Poe and Whitman/On Science
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that compares and contrasts 2 poems by Poe and Whitman. Poe's "Sonnet--To Science" and Whitman's "When I heard the Learn'd Astronomer," address not only the same subject matter, but also they take an identical stand on the topic. While Poe's poem is the most overt in its message, Whitman also takes the stand that science, specifically astronomy, attempts to drain the beauty and mystery from life and turns the wondrous into the mundane.
