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.<br /><br />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 <em>Collected Works</em>.

Description
An account of the resource
Oscar Cargill's brief article proposing that a translation of August Bürger's poem "Ellenore" in William Taylor's three-volume <em>Historic Survey of German Poetry</em> (1828-1830) inspired Poe's "The Raven," particularly the ingenious rhyming of "Lenore" and "Nevermore." Cargill traces this rhyme to Taylor's translation of Bürger's poem, where the name "Ellenore" (also said by Cargill to be a source for Poe's tale "Eleonora") is rhymed with "no more." There is even a reference to "ravens" in the poem. The article was printed as a stand-alone pamphlet with its own title page, a common practice for established scholars of another era. Cargill has signed the title page "in admiration"; Mabbott has noted that he did "not yet need" the article in 1959. Neither Cargill's article nor Taylor are accounted for in Mabbott's edition.
