Sticker on back wrapper. Abrasion to spine. Text clean. Good Plus. ISBN: 0781801087. "The idea of a femme fatale whose sexual magnetism draws men inexorably to destruction is one of the most enduring and potent images in European literature. The femme fatale became a favorite motif of the Romantic Movement and is widely featured in the poetry prose and visual art of the nineteenth century. This text has an introductory essay before offering the best of the existing stories and a set of specially commissioned new stories. These stories illustrate dramatically the radical changes which have overtaken Western attitudes to sexuality during the last two hundred years and pay tribute to the underlying constancy of our fascination with the siren song of dangerous passion.

193270179New York: Columbia University Press 1932. First edition of this facsimile. Octavo. 8 71 1 pp. Publisher's brown cloth with gilt spine lettering. An excellent copy.""Al Aaraaf" is the longest poem Poe wrote and was inspired by Tycho Brahe's discovery of a supernova in 1572 which was visible for about seventeen months. Poe identified the supernova with Al Aaraaf a star that was the place between paradise and hell. Al Aaraaf Arabic alternatively transliterated al-A raf was a place where people who have been neither markedly good nor markedly bad had to stay until forgiven by God and let into Paradise as discussed in Sura 7 of the Qur'an. As Poe explained to a potential publisher: Its title is "Al Aaraaf" from the Al Aaraaf of the Arabians a medium between Heaven and Hell where men suffer no punishment but yet do not attain that tranquil & even happiness which they suppose to be the characteristics of heavenly enjoyment.In the opening section of the poem God commands Nesace a name for Beauty's spirit to convey a message to "other worlds". Nesace rouses the angel Ligeia and tells her to awaken the other thousand seraphs to perform God's work. Two souls however fail to respond: the "maiden-angel" Ianthe and her "seraph-lover" Angelo Michelangelo who describes his death on earth and the flight of his spirit to Al Aaraaf. Ianthe and Angelo are lovers and their failure to do as Nesace commanded results in God not allowing them into heaven." Columbia University Press hardcover
