- W1570553757 abstract "Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Murders in the Rue Morgue,” the first of his selftermed “ratiocinative tales,” has long been credited with originating the genre of detective fiction. Like many sui generis works and perhaps with particular occasion because of Poe’s preoccupation with the method of fiction writing, “Rue Morgue” begins with a self-reflexive discussion of its own method. Rather than opening by delving into a crime in medias res or exploring the remains of a crime scene like its contemporary descendants, “Rue Morgue” begins with a meditation on the method of analysis that will become a significant feature of the genre.1 Poe’s insistence that we discourse with him about analytic method as well as the slippage between authorial and narratorial voice he writes into the tale’s beginning, I suggest, is pivotal to a more significant and overlooked feature of the work—that is, how its production of mystery, largely dependent on an interpellated participatory reader,2 denies the tale a stable resolution. Despite the offered resolution of both crime and narrative, the central terror for the shrewd reader of “Rue Morgue” is that the text remains unresolved or, perhaps, unsettled. Juxtaposing narrative to counternarrative and even pitting clue against clew, for the participatory reader the narrative is indeterminate despite its resolution. As the tale alternately aligns the analyses by reader, writer, narrator, and Dupin with or against each other, indeterminacy becomes the tale’s raison d’etre, its manner of producing mystery and evoking terror. Even Poe’s resolution of his opening discourse on analysis— that “it will be found, in fact, that the ingenious are always fanciful, and the truly imaginative never otherwise than analytic”—gives primacy to fancy and imagination as a condition of analytic thought (PT, 400). In this way, from the tale’s outset, Poe’s focus on the analytic process draws the reader’s attention not to the crime, not to the resolution, but to the act of analysis—to the reader’s" @default.
