  • "Edgar Allan Poe est considéré comme l'inventeur du roman policier et "Le double assassinat de la rue Morgue" a inauguré ce genre nouveau en 1840. "La lettre volée" le suit de peu (reprenant d'ailleurs le personnage du détective amateur Dupin) et figure dans le même recueil d'"Histoires extraordinaires", titre donné par Baudelaire et recueil composé par lui."
  • "When a missing letter leads to blackmail, detective C. Auguste Dupin must deduce the location of it without raising the suspicion of the blackmailer. "The Purloined Letter" is the third short story by Edgar Allan Poe to feature detective C. August Dupin, widely recognized as one of the first fictional detectives in literature. A pioneer of the short story genre, Poe's stories typically captured themes of the macabre and included elements of the mysterious. His better-known stories include "The Fall of the House of Usher", "The Pit and the Pendulum", "The Murders in the Rue Morgue", "The Masque of the Red Death" and "The Tell-Tale Heart".
