Book excerpt: How is this book unique? Font adjustments & biography included Unabridged (100% Original content) Illustrated About Eureka: A Prose Poem by Edgar Allan Poe Eureka (1848) is a lengthy non-fiction work by American author Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) which he subtitled "A Prose Poem", though it has also been subtitled as "An Essay on the Material and Spiritual Universe". Adapted from a lecture he had presented, Eureka describes Poe's intuitive conception of the nature of the universe with no antecedent scientific work done to reach his conclusions. He also discusses man's relationship with God, whom he compares to an author. It is dedicated to the German naturalist and explorer Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859). Though it is generally considered a literary work, some of Poe's ideas anticipate 20th century scientific discoveries and theories. Indeed a critical analysis of the scientific content of Eureka reveals a non-causal correspondence with modern cosmology due to the assumption of an evolving Universe, but excludes the anachronistic anticipation of relativistic concepts such as black holes.Eureka was received poorly in Poe's day and generally described as absurd, even by friends. Modern critics continue to debate the significance of Eureka and some doubt its seriousness, in part because of Poe's many incorrect assumptions and his comedic descriptions of well-known historical minds. It is presented as a poem, and many compare it with his fiction work, especially science fiction stories such as "The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar". His attempts at discovering the truth also follow his own tradition of "ratiocination", a term used in his detective fiction tales. Poe's suggestion that the soul continues to thrive even after death also parallels with works in which characters reappear from beyond the grave such as "Ligeia". The essay is oddly transcendental, considering Poe's disdain for that movement. He considered it his greatest work and claimed it was more important than the discovery of gravity.

Book excerpt: IT is with humility really unassumed-it is with a sentiment even of awe-that I pen theopening sentence of this work: for of all conceivable subjects I approach the reader withthe most solemn-the most comprehensive-the most difficult-the most august.What terms shall I find sufficiently simple in their sublimity-sufficiently sublime intheir simplicity-for the mere enunciation of my theme?I design to speak of the Physical, Metaphysical and Mathematical-of the Material andSpiritual Universe: -of its Essence, its Origin, its Creation, its Present Condition and itsDestiny. I shall be so rash, moreover, as to challenge the conclusions, and thus, in effect, toquestion the sagacity, of many of the greatest and most justly reverenced of men.In the beginning, let me as distinctly as possible announce-not the theorem which Ihope to demonstrate-for, whatever the mathematicians may assert, there is, in this worldat least, no such thing as demonstration-but the ruling idea which, throughout thisvolume, I shall be continually endeavoring to suggest.My general proposition, then, is this: -In the Original Unity of the First Thing lies theSecondary Cause of All Things, with the Germ of their Inevitable Annihilation.In illustration of this idea, I propose to take such a survey of the Universe that the mindmay be able really to receive and to perceive an individual impression.He who from the top of Ætna casts his eyes leisurely around, is affected chiefly by theextent and diversity of the scene. Only by a rapid whirling on his heel could he hope tocomprehend the panorama in the sublimity of its oneness. But as, on the summit of Ætna, noman has thought of whirling on his heel, so no man has ever taken into his brain the fulluniqueness of the prospect; and so, again, whatever considerations lie involved in thisuniqueness, have as yet no practical existence for mankind.

Book excerpt: Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Eureka (1848) is a long non-fiction work by the American author Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) who was subtitled "A Poem in Prose", although it has also been subtitled "An Essay on the Material and Spiritual Universe".

Book excerpt: In this remarkable work, master story-teller Edgar Allan Poe builds on known scientific truths to propound a universe governed by the immutable laws of attraction and repulsion, i.e., expansion and a return to unity. The irascible, vindictive God of the Old Testament and the Deists' Master Clockmaker are routed by Poe's pantheistic World Spirit who, through the force of expansion, is diffused throughout his creation. Moreover, we humans are all part of this universal spirit and each of us is his own god. Published after his death, as Poe desired, Eureka was based on a lecture Poe presented in 1848, titled "On The Cosmography of the Universe". Eureka remains a startlingly different work from the author's more popular offerings.

Book excerpt: Eureka is a lengthy non-fiction work by American author Edgar Allan Poe which he subtitled "A Prose Poem", though it has also been subtitled as "An Essay on the Material and Spiritual Universe". Edgar Allan Poe, (born January 19, 1809, Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.--died October 7, 1849, Baltimore, Maryland), American short-story writer, poet, critic, and editor who is famous for his cultivation of mystery and the macabre. His tale "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" (1841) initiated the modern detective story, and the atmosphere in his tales of horror is unrivaled in American fiction. His "The Raven" (1845) numbers among the best-known poems in the national literature. Poe was the son of the English-born actress Elizabeth Arnold Poe and David Poe, Jr., an actor from Baltimore. After his mother died in Richmond, Virginia, in 1811, he was taken into the home of John Allan, a Richmond merchant (presumably his godfather), and of his childless wife. He was later taken to Scotland and England (1815-20), where he was given a classical education that was continued in Richmond. For 11 months in 1826 he attended the University of Virginia, but his gambling losses at the university so incensed his guardian that he refused to let him continue, and Poe returned to Richmond to find his sweetheart, (Sarah) Elmira Royster, engaged. He went to Boston, where in 1827 he published a pamphlet of youthful Byronic poems, Tamerlane, and Other Poems. Poverty forced him to join the army under the name of Edgar A. Perry, but, on the death of Poe's foster mother, John Allan purchased his release from the army and helped him get an appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. Before going, Poe published a new volume at Baltimore, Al Aaraaf, Tamerlane, and Minor Poems (1829). He successfully sought expulsion from the academy, where he was absent from all drills and classes for a week. He proceeded to New York City and brought out a volume of Poems, containing several masterpieces, some showing the influence of John Keats, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. He then returned to Baltimore, where he began to write stories. In 1833 his "MS. Found in a Bottle" won $50 from a Baltimore weekly, and by 1835 he was in Richmond as editor of the Southern Literary Messenger. There he made a name as a critical reviewer and married his young cousin Virginia Clemm, who was only 13. Poe seems to have been an affectionate husband and son-in-law.
