In very good condition with some light foxing and usual wear. BAL 16147. The Raven is a narrative poem by American writer Edgar Allan Poe. First published in January 1845 the poem is often noted for its musicality stylized language and supernatural atmosphere. It tells of a talking raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover tracing the man's slow fall into madness. The lover often identified as being a student is lamenting the loss of his love Lenore. Sitting on a bust of Pallas the raven seems to further instigate his distress with its constant repetition of the word "Nevermore". The poem makes use of a number of folk mythological religious and classical references. Biographer Hervey Allen: The most important volume of poetry that had been issued up to that time in America. In this little volume the weary wayworn wanderer had successfully reached his own native shore in the realm of imagination" Grolier 100 American 56.

From 1962 onwards Prussen realised his own book projects with the Donkey Press in which he could give material form to his artistic and qualitative demands. The printing of Poe's <em>The Raven</em> can be regarded as the culmination of Prussen's artistic work.</p> Donkey Press
1845191176New York: Wiley and Putnam February but January 1845. And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor / Shall be lifted - nevermore! First appearance of "The Raven" pp. 143-5 appearing in the second number under the pseudonym "by --- Quarles". This bound volume of the American Review's initial six numbers is a presentation copy inscribed by the editor on the first blank "Col. Webb Ed. Courier & Enquirer from the Editor G. H. Colton". George Hooker Colton 1818-1847 paid Poe "not over $20" for "The Raven" which is introduced by Colton's brief essay on poetic metre. Colton recited the poem to staff "in his ramshackle Nassau Street office before yet it had gone into type; and as he closed with oratorical effect the last refrain he declared with an emphasis that shook the whole mass of his flaxen locks - 'that is amazing - amazing!'" Thomas p. 484. Colton presented this volume to General James Watson Webb 1802-1884 whose own paper Courier & Enquirer once had the largest circulation in the nation. "The Raven" was immediately successful appealing to both the popular and critical taste of its day and it was reprinted at least ten times within a month. The Evening Mirror issue of 29 January announced that they were reprinting the poem in advance of the February issue of the American Review; however the American Review itself announced that the February number would in fact be issued in early January. Richard Gimbel notes that the Evening Mirror text was slightly corrected from the first setting of type seen in the American Review and introduces an obvious typographical error. The April issue further includes the first appearance in print of Poe's "Some Words with a Mummy" pp. 363-70 and his revised versions of "The City in the Sea" and "The Valley of Unrest" pp. 392-3. Nos I-VI bound in single octavo volume 219 x 131 mm. Contemporary black half morocco rebacked to style red spine label and gilt and blind rules to compartments blind roll to sides and corners marbled sides and endpapers. Ownership signature on title page. Covers a little rubbed light wear and refurbishment to edges inner hinges reinforced occasional foxing and sticky notes to contents. A very good copy.

1845136274New York: Wiley and Putnam 1845. First appearance in print of The Raven one of the most famous and recognizable poems ever written which Poe considered his finest poem calling it “the greatest poem that was ever written.†Octavo original wrappers. In keeping with the policy of The American Review which required that poems be published anonymously or with a pseudonym the poem which appears on page 143 is credited to 'Quarles.' In very good condition. Rare in the original wrappers. The Raven and Other Poems “was published at one of the low ebbs of Poe’s fortunes when his Broadway Journal was about to expire and is thus characterized by his biographer Hervey Allen: The most important volume of poetry that had been issued up to that time in America… In this little volume the weary wayworn wanderer had successfully reached his own native shore in the realm of imagination†Grolier 100 American 56. Poe considered “The Raven†to be his finest poem—indeed he was quoted as saying it was the finest poem ever written. Dedicated to Elizabeth Barrett Barrett and first published in book form by Wiley & Putnam in November 1845 in an edition of roughly 750 copies The Raven and Other Poems "made Poe's name known both in America and England and brought him an immortality that by no other means could he have attained" Robertson 224.

184578226New York: Wiley and Putnam 1845. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. The first printing of "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe 1809-49. Among the most famous works in American literature the poem tells of a raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover tracing the man's slow descent into madness. It appears anonymously on p.143-145 as "by ——— Quarles." The first appearance of "The Raven" is something of a bibliographical dispute. Heartman and Canny consider this form to be the first printing maintaining that the January 29 1845 appearance in The Evening Mirror is not the first. The American Review had announced that "No. II will bear date Feb. 1845 but will be issued early in January" thus unless the publishers were unable to issue the work by the date promised the present version clearly predates the late January appearance in The Evening Mirror. Octavo: ii iv 656 pp. with a frontispiece portrait of Henry Clay. This volume contains other work by Poe including the first printing of "Some Words with a Mummy" p.363 as well as "Valley of Unrest" p.392 and "The City in the Sea" p.393. Original calf binding with black morocco spine labels gilt-stamped titles and decorations four raised bands blind-stamped borders and marbled endpapers. Scattered light foxing to the contents with a previous owner's pencil inscription to a prefatory blank leaf. The bookplate of American botanist and horticulturalist Ulysses Prentiss Hedrick appears on the front pastedown. Some general edgewear more so to the corners and tips with a bit of rubbing along the joints; otherwise very good. Heartman and Canny p.100; Tane 177. Wiley and Putnam hardcover

18451001883New York: Wiley and Putnam 1845. First edition in book form of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" the single most famous American poem of the nineteenth century first published earlier that year in the New York Evening Mirror under Poe's own name and The American Review under a pseudonym. Partly inspired by the early lyrics of Elizabeth Barrett later Browning to whom he dedicated this volume of poems Poe composed "The Raven" in trochaic octometer with a deranged musicality all his own. The elements are familiar even to those who don't read poetry: the "midnight dreary" the silk-curtained chamber the raven perched upon the bust of Athena the relentless refrain that drives the narrator mad. "'Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken! / Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door! / Take thy beak from out my heart and take thy form from off my door!' / Quoth the Raven 'Nevermore.'" Even before publication Poe knew he had a sensation on his hands. When a friend described an early reading of the poem as "fine uncommonly fine" Poe responded: "Is that all you can say for this poem I tell you it's the greatest poem ever written." Poe's fame only increased with the appearance of contemporary parodies like "The Owl" and "The Polecat": a contemporary recalls "'The Raven' became known everywhere and everyone was saying 'Nevermore.'" The publication of "The Raven" paved the way for Wiley and Putnam's publication of Poe's Tales the collection that introduced his pioneering detective fiction to a wider audience that same year.
