In Edgar Allan Poe’s story‚ The Purloined Letter‚ Poe used tropes to hint at where the letter was hidden. He had the characters using words like ‘simple’‚ ‘odd’‚ and ‘plain’ multiple times in the through the story. Because of this‚ his readers were shocked at the end because it was so simple. In a way‚ the moral of this story was proved to be true because the reader was also thinking the letter has to be hidden in hard places. The Purloined Letter was about a man who hid a very important letter.

The Impressionist Movement‚ an art movement in France‚ lasted from around 1862-1886. It was a movement focused on color‚ light‚ and perception. In addition‚ the Impressionist painters often tended to use more distinct and free brushstrokes rather than distinct lines in their art. During this time‚ a now well-known painter‚ Claude Monet‚ was an active artist in France. What will be considered is whether Monet should be judged an authority on Impressionism. The obvious answer appears to be “of course”

It is my belief that although Poe’s Dupin‚ in The Purloined Letter‚ and Hammet’s Spade‚ in The Maltese Falcon both have very unique qualities‚ they both share very similar moral codes. These codes of morality‚ they would like to believe‚ have no bearing on the world or society around them. They both follow their own moral standards and do not follow what is expected of them. As Spade repeatedly suggests that honesty and loyalty are not what he is concerned about. As it occurs in both cases‚ Dupin
Premium Edgar Allan Poe The Purloined Letter Morality
Of all of Poe’s stories of ratiocination (or detective stories)‚ "The Purloined Letter" is considered his finest.
