Go to www.eapoe.org and check Poe's essays. usually he is discussing Ammerican literature issues. Very focussed on that but there are comments on culture, exploration, progress, the American character, etc. sprinkled throughout his works. The essays on copyright and genuine American literature vs. Europeanization and puffing up inferior local works. The rest is more difficult mining for opinions buried in stories and elsewhere. Critics of Poe writing on his being a Southerner and an American might be helpful.
