I'm about to write a grand paper on Poe. My focus is on his poems and I have little knowledge of how events in his life lead to e.g. write "a dream within a dream" or "city in the sea" - any help on him as a person and/or as rationalist would be very much appreciated!

Bye Bye

The best historilogical approach to his poems is Thomas Mabbott's book on Poe's poetry, in print and on sale in major bookstores. Check www.eapoe.org for more sources and Poe's complete writings with variants.
