Poe's efforts in the field of literary criticism have often been condemned as a rationalization of his own personal limitations as a writer, but this study contends that his critical theories far surpass such a narrow interpretation. Rather, Poe was \"essentially a magazinist,\" and therefore emphasized brevity, unity, and totality of effect and placed the highest value on literary types best suited to periodical literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edd Winfield Parks\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0820334855\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780820334851\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Georgia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.30d","brand":"Edd Winfield Parks","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45896488878335,"sku":"9780820334851","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_17021604-095a-40c9-84c7-2f3c2588be19.jpg?v=1721371535","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/edgar-allan-poe-as-literary-edd-winfield-parks-9780820334851","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
