Spooktacular October Ghosties and Ghoulies,
What do you think of first when you hear, “The Raven?”
Fear?
Terror?
The Simpsons?
Death?
Well, we thought of all of those things and more throughout this breakdown episode of “The Raven,” by Edgar Allen Poe. This eerie poem is a rollercoaster of emotions, and can elicit different ones from person to person. The foremost emotion felt by most is that of loss, and mourning. Poe had the intent to elicit dread from the audience, as pointed out in his essay, “The Philosophy of Composition,” produced a year after “The Raven.” Was he defending his own writing, or laying the groundwork to shape future generations of poets?
Find out in this week’s breakdown episode.

Happy Spooky times to one and all,
This October we shall be narrating American author, Edgar Allan Poe's famously eerie poem “The Raven.” It was published in the New York Evening Mirror On January 29, 1845 and was equally praised and panned by critics of the day. The poem made Poe famous throughout both England and America.
Most everyone already knows of the story, but in rereading, recording, and editing this episode Owen learned many more of the details of the story and has many more questions about it. How good is your knowledge of “The Raven?” Are there any bits that you were surprised by in this week’s episode, upon hearing it anew?
Let us know on social media.
Have a haunted October,
Owen, Daniel, and Kari

After listening to this episode, hope on over to spotify to listen back to Chapter 1 of the Lady Audley’s Secret and see if any new pieces of information catch your attention.

Hello historians,
Today Owen narrates Chapter 13 of Lady Audley’s Secret
Published in the London Journal from 1863
The Victorian Periodical Parade podcast is a time traveling vessel, going back 160 years to see what folks were interested in, and how they lived their daily lives. As it turns out they were folks just like us, coming up with reasons to do things, reasons for why things happened, and attempting to make sense of it all. There is much that we can learn about our daily life, by reading stories from the Victorian Era. So far Lady Audley’s Secret has been about middle to upper class life, with a glimpse at lower to impoverished classes, and learning can be had!
In Chapter 13 of Lady Audley’s Secret Mr. Audley returns to his home after an exhausting trek to find his dear friend George. He is so exhausted that he has a dream filled nap on the bed that George used while he stayed with Robert. He is so tired he doesn’t answer the door when someone pounds on it a few times. The end of this chapter includes a review of the evidence that Robert has collected on his hunt for George. This turns Lady Audley’s Secret into the first detective novel, ahead of Sherlock Holmes. Do you think that Robert will find George? What do you think of the evidence Robert listed out? Did he miss anything? Find out in today’s reading...
While listening to this episode, hop on over to Instagram to check out the images associated with this Chapter 13 of Lady Audley’s Secret and see if any new pieces of information catch your attention.
Our next episode will likely be a breakdown of Chapters 10 to 13 of Lady Audley’s Secret, and the articles published alongside them in the London Journal. We hope to hear from you on Instagram, Twitter, or Youtube
Have a great day!

Hallo friends,

In Chapter 12 of Lady Audley’s Secret Mr. Audley heads to South Hampton to see if George is staying there to see Georgie. It turns out that is exactly what Goerge has done. In the small cottage Robert comes across a startling telegraph, that was partially burned. He doesn’t know who sent it, and he doesn’t lay much stake to the fact that it was half burnt, but he keeps it and sets out after George as normal. Where did it come from? Who sent it? What does it all mean? Find out in today’s reading...
