"The Raven" and its Afterlives

Thaïs F.N. Diniz

Abstract


This paper is an attempt to describe some ways of seeing Edgar Allan Poe’s work through some of its afterlives, many of them literary but also intermedial ones – drawings, paintings, films, plays and musical pieces. Products inspired by the poem “The Raven” will be characterized as adaptation, translation, ekphrasis, transmediation, representation or else – in their new configurations: drawings , concrete poems,  films, novels, paintings, charges, comic books, graphic novels, pieces of music and so on. Because Poe’s work is so extensive and appreciated – and therefore imitated – a variety of processes can be exemplified


Keywords


Edgar Allan Poe; "The Raven"; adaptation; translation; intermediality
