In Fables of Mind , Joan Dayan subverts the conventional image of Edgar Allen Poe, presenting him instead as a writer who attempted to question and allegorize epistemology. Provocative reconsiderations of Poe's stature as a writer and thinker, these intense and original readings of often overlooked tales will appeal to scholars and to Americanists specializing in the 19th century, and their up-to-date critical methodology will interest generalists involved with modern critical theory, particularly deconstruction.
