While I typically love locked room mysteries, and I don't mind not being given enough clues to fully solve a locked room mystery for myself, I really disliked the way this one ended. It was a completely unexpected twist (since I have somehow managed to avoid spoilers for it) and left a very bad taste in my mouth for the story. However, I do appreciate this for what it was: probably the inspiration for Sherlock Holmes, as well as the first detective story. The language is more dated than I expected, and I didn't like it nearly as much as I remember liking Poe's other works. Not one I need to revisit, though I'm glad to have read it the once. The first of the mysteries featuring the detective C. Auguste Dupin. He becomes interested in the unexplained (by the police) death of a Madame L'Espanaye and her daughter, Camille, in the Rue Morgue. Not just unexplained but brutal deaths. It took a while to get into the writing style but an interesting mystery nevertheless. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"The Murders in the Rue Morgue" is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe published in Graham's Magazine in 1841. It has been claimed as the first detective story; Poe referred to it as one of his "tales of ratiocination". Similar works predate Poe's stories, including Das Fräulein von Scuderi (1819) by E.T.A. Hoffmann and Zadig (1748) by Voltaire.C. Auguste Dupin is a man in Paris who solves the mysterious brutal murder of two women. Numerous witnesses heard a suspect, though no one agrees on what language was spoken. At the murder scene, Dupin finds a hair that does not appear to be human.As the first true detective in fiction, the Dupin character established many literary devices which would be used in future fictional detectives including Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot. Many later characters, for example, follow Poe's model of the brilliant detective, his personal friend who serves as narrator, and the final revelation being presented before the reasoning that leads up to it. Dupin himself reappears in "The Mystery of Marie Roget" and "The Purloined Letter". Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Tre berømte noveller af Edgar Allan Poe. Der er i den sidste historie også en historie om en læge, som en rig gnier forsøger at få et gratis råd af ved at fortælle om en "ven", der har forskellige symptomer. Så spørger gnieren lægen om hvad "vennen" skal gøre. Og lægen fortæller med et glimt i øjet at "vennen" selvfølgelig bør søge læge. I den fortælling er der også nogle betragtninger om matematikere og man kan tirre dem ved at påstå at x² + px ikke altid giver q. ( )
