Like Stewie often does, the dark side just, sometimes, wins.  Tomorrow, we begin exploring the darker side of Edgar Allan Poe and American Romanticism.  Though his subject matter may be morose and disturbing, there is no denying that the man was a genius with the written word and he borrowed from his not-so-charmed life's experience to bring an audience powerful poetry and prose.

Here's a link to Poe's dedicated museum in Virginia, which includes a biography, a bibliography, and information about weekend tours to the nearest cemetary (ack!).  

Happy Reading.  See you tomorrow.

When we are annotating, and we encounter words we don't know, do we define them on the page, or just circle them and look them up later on?
