ELDORADO: THE POES IN NORFOLK. Myreen Moore Nicholson Old Dominion University, 1996 Director: Dr. Douglas G. Greene Edgar Allan Poe is one o f the best known Americans in the world, as a great poet, literary critic and essayist, and innovator o f the analytic detective story. Yet he basically remains his own best mystery. Major cities have monuments to him. This creative work's object is to show that Norfolk, Virginia, was central in his life and art. In fact, the theatre company with which his actress mother, Eliza Arnold Poe (and her friends, the SuIIys), was longest affiliated, was headquartered there. Edgar's sister Rosalie was bom in a house on Brewer Street. Times and the circumstances o f Poe in Norfolk become commanding. The work is presented linearly, centered about this writer’s hereditarily and newly found information about his last visit a few weeks before his death. Associated dynamic and theatrical scenes o f Poe’s parents are introduced to give clues, and mysteries such as the identity o f Annabel Lee’ are illuminated through the previously ignored past topography o f Norfolk.
