Resumen
The purpose of this paper is to underline the importance of scientific exploration as a major thematic influence in the works of American writer Edgar Allan Poe. In order to achieve this aim, three examples of his short fiction production related to maritime, aerial, and archaeological expeditions have been studied and put in context. This inspiration in early nineteenth century scientific issues opened the path for some of the literary developments that would later be known as science fiction.
