I know a little bit about Edgar Allan Poe including that he mainly wrote about dark and scary things and places. He is famous for his poem “The Raven” which is how the raven became so popular in Baltimore. I am excited to learn more about him and read some interesting poems.
Web quest:
1. "The Raven" was published in 1845.
2. The Poe Toaster was the nick name given to to mysterious person that visited Edgar's grave every year on his birthday.
3. Poe married Virginia Eliza Clemm Poe and she was thirteen years old.
4. Edgar called Virginia home.
5. Poe was born on October 9, 1849 in Boston, Massachusetts, and he died on November 17, 1875.
6. "The Black Cat" was written in 1843 and "The Tell Tale Heart" was written in 1843 also.
7. "The Murders of the Morgue" was the first detective story.
8. The US Military Academy at West Point Expelled Poe in 1831.
9. I think that Poe's marriage must have been odd because he was an odd person and they were so far apart in age.
10. There are thirteen theories about what caused Poe's death and five of them are beating, drunkness, heart problems, murder, and epilepsy.
