This monograph focuses on the poetic output of Edgar Allan Poe offering a new approach to his verse, whereby his poems are treated as unique phono-semantic structures, requiring specific interpretative procedures that bring to light the Close correspondence between the phonetic orchestration and the semantic dimension in Poe's poetry.

As the book title indicates, It is first of all a new theory of tragedy. In particular, it is an investigation of fate and guilt concepts as rationalisations of irrational tragic reality, reflected generally in Geistegeschichte, then in literary tragedies of the Western world and eventually in Storm and Stress dramas. Remarkably, they summarize, contradict, and to some extent predict all major "solutions" to tragic insolubility, as illustrated in the main sections: Greek, Christian, and Enlightenment world Views.

Abstract; Acknowledgments; Introduction; Chapter I: Theory and Background; Chapter II: Classical Greek and Storm and Stress Tragedy; Chapter III: The Christian Tradition and Storm and Stress-Drama; Chapter IV: Enlightenment Features in Storm and Stress Drama; Chapter V: Criticism and Conclusions; Bibliography; Index.
