Mabbott, Thomas Ollive (TOM). Preliminary notes that Mabbott prepared with an eye to further volumes of his edition. The notes are in various forms, and often several stages exist for a single work. Many have been painstakingly typed, under Maureen Mabbott's supervision, we believe, sometimes from rough handwritten notes, sometimes from marginal jottings. Scholars using them should be aware that they are very preliminary; some are essentially notes from TOM to himself. They should not be trusted for the wording of quotations: TOM seems often to have made notations from memory and in haste, planning to check for exact wording at a later stage of his work. But they are very useful and saved us many hours. The Mabbott Papers are at the University of Iowa, Iowa City, in the hands of librarians sympathetic to scholarship.

Poe, Edgar Allan. Collected Works of Edgar Allan Poe. Vol. 1: Complete Poems. Edited by [page 216:] Thomas Ollive Mabbott. Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1969. Reprint. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2000. The Harvard volumes are numbered consecutively. Volume 1 contains Poe's poems, volumes 2 and 3, Tales and Sketches. In the Illinois reprint there is no consecutive numbering. Thus a citation to Collected Works, vol. 3 directs readers either to volume 3 of the Harvard or the second volume of “Tales and Sketches” in the Illinois edition. Contents of the two editions are identical.

——. Poetry and Tales. Edited by Patrick Quinn. New York: Library of America, 1984.

——. The Rationale of Verse. Edited by J. Arthur Greenwood. Princeton: Wolfhart Book Co., 1968. Although Greenwood says modestly that he will withdraw his book when a good edition of the essay appears, he should not. His is too useful and goes into matters which, although not appropriate for a general edition, are interesting. His volume is also charming, quirky, and frank.

——. The Raven and Other Poems. Edited by Thomas Ollive Mabbott. New York: Facsimile Text Society, 1942. A facscimile [[facsimile]] of the 1845 edition of Poe's poems; T. Lorimer Graham's copy with Poe's handwritten corrections.

——. The Works of the Late Edgar Allan Poe. Edited by Rufus W. Griswold. 4 vols. New York: J. S. Redfield, 1850-56. Although Griswold's edition contains the biographical slanders and forgeries which severely damaged Poe's reputation, Griswold was a scrupulous editor of text and had access to late revisions by Poe. The Griswold edition is usually more reliable than the Harrison Complete Works, which for decades was taken to be the standard for Poe scholarship.
