Due to time constraints I would only suggest you check your sources for this obvious homework assignment. The aspects of courage and spirit really need understanding, as much of possible, of Poe as a person. And this is not bland or easy though his work is brief and consistent.

Poe's contributions: literary criticism as a real and demanding art, not mere hype. the detective story invention, the best and first of American poetry as distinct and innovative inspiring a whole movement of art for art's sake and symbolism in world poetry, exemplfying the best distinctive genius in raising most of the literary forms he touched to new levels and artistic heights, our most genuine Romanticist.
