Edgar Allan Poe: A psychological profile
چکیده انگلیسی

Edgar Allan Poe is often regarded as one of the most well-known American poets of the 19th century. He is best known for his dark, gruesome depictions of emotionally haunted characters. His most famous poem, The Raven, exemplifies this style. To understand what motivated this writing style, we must learn about the man behind the pen. Not surprisingly, Poe had a difficult upbringing, fraught with illness, loss, and poverty. This review will examine Poe’s personal life and discuss how early experiences and possible genetic predispositions may have contributed to his affect and behaviours as an adult.


► Brief overview of Edgar Allan Poe’s personal life.
► Examine how early experiences and possible genetic predispositions contributed to adult behaviours.
► Compare Poe’s experiences with findings from past research.
