Research Project Proposal Essay For my research project I will be covering the works of Edgar Allen Poe, primarily focusing on his poem “The Raven”. The reason for my interest in Poe and his works is primarily because his life had a huge impact on the tales and poems he wrote and in a weird perspective; the hardships he experienced in his life can be seen as his “inspiration” for his work. Poe, who died at an early age of only 40, went through many hardships during his life. First losing his mother at the age of only 2 years old, Poe never really got to know his mother as many of us do today. His father died shortly after and Poe suffered greatly during his life not being able to claim to have “known” his parents.

Edgar Allan Poe’s life was filled with many tragedies which heavily influenced his most popular work from the Gothic genre. It all began at the ripe age of two, when Edgar’s mother died of tuberculosis, causing himself and his brother and sister to be orphaned. The three children were split apart, and Edgar was taken into the foster home of John Allan and Frances Keeling Valentine Allan. Each parent provided a different experience for Poe; his foster father was an abusive alcoholic, while his foster mother would educate and try protecting him from her husband when possible.
