Edgar Allan Poe's Complete Poetical Works

By Poe, Edgar Allan

Description
Preface: In placing before the public this collection of Edgar Poe?s poetical works, it is requisite to point out in what respects it differs from, and is superior to, the numerous collections which have preceded it. Until recently, all editions, whether American or English, of Poe?s poems have been ?verbatim? reprints of the first posthumous collection, published at New York in 1850. In 1874 I began drawing attention to the fact that unknown and unreprinted poetry by Edgar Poe was in existence. Most, if not all, of the specimens issued in my articles have since been reprinted by different editors and publishers, but the present is the first occasion on which all the pieces referred to have been garnered into one sheaf. Besides the poems thus alluded to, this volume will be found to contain many additional pieces and extra stanzas, nowhere else published or included in Poe?s works. Such verses have been gathered from printed or manuscript sources during a research extending over many years.
