Paper Summary:

This paper examines the mysterious visitor who pays tribute to Edgar Allan Poe at his grave in Westminster Churchyard in Baltimore, Maryland.

From the Paper:

"Within the weathered brick walls of Westminster Churchyard, at the corner of Fayette and Greene Streets in Baltimore, Maryland, a cold marble shrine marks the final resting place of a tormented soul. 1 In life, he was haunted by torturing memories--memories of wrong and injustice and imputed dishonor and from a sense of some strange, impending doom. In death, his memory endures in the hearts of those who still honor his great literary genius as a poet who eternally searched for supernal beauty in a world filled with poverty and abandonment and produced some of the world's finest tales of the macabre and the supernatural"".
