#MemoriesOfYou One of the best things that came out of #POEthemusical was meeting my beautiful talented friend Kathleen Lundquist who portrayed Maria Poe Clemm, #EdgarAllanPoe's aunt & mother-in-law.

#MurdersAreRued "Murders in the Rue Morgue" was the 1st detective story. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle credited #EdgarAllanPoe's Inspector Dupin as the inspiration for #SherlockHolmes. #StarTrek jokes as Poe also wrote sci-fi. #Hamilton joke, too. #POEtheMusical

Murders Are Rued (scene/song)
Later in Act One, Poe and Death talk about his writing. He meets Rufus Griswold for the first time and they try to one-up each other in a comedy song called "Murders Are Rued." Of course, the title is a nod to Poe's famous detective story, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," which inspired an entire fiction genre. Arthur Conan Doyle credits Poe's character, Inspector Auguste Dupin, as being the inspiration for Sherlock Holmes. You'll catch quite a few jokes buried in the song.

Today’s #coffee pick: in honor of #EdgarAllanPoe’s 216th birthday, I went into my stash for my bag of Red Rooster brand The Raven (because what else would a coffee fiend drink today? Really now), a dark roast arabica with chocolate notes.

These pics featuring ravens are in honor of #EdgarAllanPoe's 216th birthday. In #Bewitched S1s "George the Warlock" we find that one of Samantha's exes used to transform into a #raven and it was he who inspired Mr. Poe to write his famous poem.

📄Miriam Fernández-Santiago (@mirfersan) elaborates on the importance of literary experimentation in understanding the similarities and possible influence between #RobertBrowning’s and #EdgarAllanPoe’s work ✍️📖

Check out her paper 👀

This article explores the possible influence between certain works by Robert Browning and Edgar Allan Poe, composed and published very close in time, which deal with similar themes and share literary strategies and techniques. Although the possibility that they might have been reading each other’s work is supported by their respective correspondences with Elizabeth Barrett Browning, the similarities between their works could also be attributed to literary experimentation as a means of standing out in a fiercely competitive literary market that had to pander to both popular and critical taste. This article compares the similarities in choice of tone and sensational event, as well as the use of voice in a short list of titles that coincide in both time of publication and topic, to raise the issue of influence in a controversial historical context when plagiarism and radical innovation were equally problematic.

Mistigram: this #ANSIart accompanied the culmination of #EdgarAllanPoe's #MasqueOfTheRedDeath in Lobo Spitouf's complete illustrated #ANSIPOE collection for BBSes, reprinted in the MIST1017 artpack collection released seven years ago this month.
Beneath the hands of a tall grandfather clock, a skullish visage peers out from beneath a violet cowl, while beneath text reads: And now was acknowledged the presence of the Red Death. He had come like a thief in the night. And one by one dropped the revellers in the blood-bedewed halls of their revel, and died each in the despairing posture of his fall. And the life of the ebony clock went out with that of the last of the gay. And the flames of the tripods expired. And Darkness and Decay and the Red Death held illimitable dominion over all.
