Using the short story “The Tell-Tale Heart” by Edgar Allan Poe research the life and literary philosophy of Poe. Analyze it from the stand point of a horror tale. Compare and contrast it with one of his famous poems. You can pick whatever poem you think is good to compare and contrast to the short story The Tell Tale heart. Just as long as its a poem from Edger Allan Poe.
Also answer the question “Why is it a horror tale” somewhere in the essay.
When you pick a poem by Poe please go in great detail to why it relates to the story The Tell-Tale Heart.
In any part in the essay create a journal entry from the point of view of one of Poe’s characters. For example, you may choose to be the artist from “The Oval Portrait” discussing his passion for art. Or, maybe you will be Roderick or Madeline, wasting away in the house of Usher. Make sure that your journal entry relates to the actual story or poem. *Use a different font when writing the journal entry
