[Spanish] - Los crímenes de la calle Morgue
En “Los crímenes de la calle Morgue” (1841), Edgar Allan Poe (1809 – 1849) nos dejó lo que la crítica del S. XX calificaría como “el primer cuento moderno de detectives”. Y es que, sin duda, su influencia sobre otros autores del género es innegable, como resulta claramente de la comparación entre el espíritu observador y analítico del Auguste Dupin de “Los crímenes…” con el no menos inquisidor y obsesivo Sherlock Holmes de Conan Doyle… Allan Poe, al que Mallarmé llamaría “el dios intelectual del S. XIX” nos dejaría también, en sus cuentos cortos (fue el maestro indiscutido de ese género) los primeros ensayos sobre ciencia ficción. Escritor, poeta, crítico y periodista, es en sus cuentos en los que nos transmite sus obsesiones sobre el horror, el misterio y la muerte. “Los crímenes de la calle Morgue” es, sin duda, uno de sus mejores relatos, sobre el que Matthew Pearl dijera que la experiencia de leerlo “consiste en que nuestro propio papel de investigadores emerge junto al del narrador y, por supuesto, del hecho de que el propio narrador permanezca sin nombre todo el tiempo, lo que facilita nuestra identificación con él, al lado de Auguste Dupin”. Es también “Los crímenes…” una obra muy representativa del intenso romanticismo de Poe, cuya vida trágica y atormentada se vería reflejada en sus poemas y cuentos.Para decirlo con las palabras de Julio Cortázar (cuya traducción prestigia la presente edición): “Ni siquiera en sus cuentos analíticos se salva Poe de sus peores obsesiones”.

Edgar Allen Poe: Five Creepy Stories: Murder, insanity, decay and revenge - Poe serves them up with
Edgar Allan Poe has the genius to manipulate language so well that he could engage my imagination and get me terrified even though little was 'done' in the sense of horrible actions described. My imagination, under the power of his creepy words, conjured the atmosphere and amplified the scariness all by itself. In this recording I've chosen some of his stories that did this so well and succeed in leaving lingering hair raising memories with me to enjoy all through my life: The Telltale Heart; The Masque of the Red Death; The Black Cat; The Raven and the Casque of Amontillado. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I did narrating them.

The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall
Written in 1835, this is a unique example of sci-fi wrtten by a man much better known for dark and fantastical horror. Intended by Poe to be a hoax, this tale describes a journey in a balloon that includes the view of the Earth from space and a volcanic, seething satellite. From the wiki: 'The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall' (1835) is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe published in the June 1835 issue of the monthly magazine Southern Literary Messenger as 'Hans Phaall -- A Tale', intended by Poe to be a hoax. The story is regarded as one of the early examples of the modern science fiction genre. The story traces the journey of a voyage to the moon. Poe planned to continue the hoax in further installments, but was pre-empted by the Great Moon Hoax which started in the August 25, 1835 issue of the New York Sun daily newspaper. Poe later wrote that the satirical tone of the story made it easy for readers to see through the supposed hoax. Poe's story had an influence on, and is referenced in, Jules Verne's From the Earth to the Moon, which can be seen as a retelling of the story.[5] Verne acknowledged Poe as the creator of the 'scientific novel' when he referred to him as 'le créateur du roman merveilleux scientifique'. Poe later published a similar hoax, 'The Balloon-Hoax', in the New York Sun in 1844.
