Edgar Allan Poe, né le 19 janvier 1809 à Boston et mort à Baltimore le 7 octobre 1849, est un poète, romancier, nouvelliste, critique littéraire, dramaturge et éditeur américain, ainsi que l'une des principales figures du romantisme américain. Connu surtout pour ses contes - genre dont la brièveté lui permet de mettre en valeur sa théorie de l'effet, suivant laquelle tous les éléments du texte doivent concourir à la réalisation d'un effet unique - il a donné à la nouvelle ses lettres de noblesse et est considéré comme l'inventeur du roman policier. Nombre de ses récits préfigurent les genres de la science-fiction et du fantastique.
