Good topic, but you, most likely, want to concentrate on how Irony is used and it makes the story funny even though he is writing a revenge story/horror story. That is what is so brilliant about this story. Be sure to use outside sources about Poe’s education.

I had the intro written out but my professor is looking for something different than what I expected. I’m having trouble creating a thesis based on what she sent me in the email.

She wants one biography source on Poe and there can be a whole paragraph about his bio and education. And she wants quotes used from the story.
