Poe and Democracy

I just recently finished "E Pluribus Unum" a book about Poe and the Constitutional Paradox. The author, W. C. Harris argues that Poe was not anti-democratic as many scholars have claimed, and that he was in fact, very concerned with the problem of the individual in relation to society at large.

I am thinking of doing something like this for my final paper, some sort of textual evaluation.... hmmmm. More later maybe...?
