                <text>Welcome to the research file on Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven." Comprising seventy-five documents, this file is the largest of all of Mabbott's research files. In addition to being the largest file, it represents Mabbott's editorial idiosyncracies more than any other research file among his papers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of the items exhibited in this collection contributed to Mabbott's introduction to the poem, his account of textual variants, and the editorial notes in the &lt;em&gt;Collected Works&lt;/em&gt;. To read Mabbott's introduction, list of printings, and notes, click &lt;a href="https://www.eapoe.org/works/mabbott/tom1p084.htm"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.</text>

              <text>Photocopy of clippings from an unknown newspaper or periodical dating from early May 1919 and another clipping from the 13 April 1962 issue of &lt;em&gt;The New York Times&lt;/em&gt;. The 1919 clipping captures two letters-to-the-editor that respond to a claim about the location of the composition of "The Raven." The first is by the painter William Sartain (1843-1924), who claims that Poe wrote "The Raven" in Philadelphia and was not on good terms with his first posthumous editor, Rufus W. Griswold. The second letter to the editor is by Poe editor and collector J.H. Whitty, who also weighs in on the debate about the location of "The Raven's" composition. The second clipping featured in this photocopy is a &lt;em&gt;New York Times&lt;/em&gt; article reporting that a raven in the Central Park Zoo had been mislabeled as a crow.</text>
