Poe's essay "The Philosophy of Composition" using the composition of "The Raven" to exemplify his ideas. Ironically, he uses a mini-dialogue with himself on the subject of the most ideal tehme especially when coming from the lips of the bereaved lover. You can find this essay online at www.eapoe.org.
