About this audiobook

Steffen Siegmund, Ensemblemitglied des Thalia-Theater Hamburg, liest Texte von Edgar Allan Poe, eingebettet in eine assoziative Geräuschkomposition von Sabine Kaufmann (Regie: Margit Kreß).

Edgar Allan Poe wird häufig als Wegbereiter der modernen Horrorliteratur oder Begründer des Symbolismus bezeichnet. Es ging dem Autor in seinen Arbeiten jedoch nie darum, Horror zu verbreiten, sondern die weiten Gefilde menschlicher Psyche auszuloten. Sein wohl bekanntestes Gedicht "Der Rabe" wurde 1845 zum ersten Mal in New York veröffentlicht.

Steffen Siegmund begibt sich mit den Erzählungen und Gedichten Poes auf eine Reise in den Wahnsinn, auf der Suche nach Wahn und Sinn hinter den Worten.

Edgar Allen Poe

Edgar Allan Poe was born in Boston in 1809. His parents, both touring actors, died before he was three. He was raised by John Allan, a prosperous Virginian merchant. Poe published his first volume of poetry while still a teenager. He worked as an editor for magazines in Philadelphia, Richmond and New York, and achieved respect as a literary critic. In 1836, he married his thirteen year-old cousin. It was only with the publication of The Raven and other Poems in 1845 that he achieved national fame as a writer. Poe died in mysterious circumstances in 1849.
