Summary

In “The Domain of Arnheim”, Edgar Allen Poe combines an explication of his aesthetic theory and a physical description of a landscape-garden, Arnheim. The builder of Arnheim, Ellison, is described by a narrator as a fabulously wealthy man, interested “instinctively...in the creation of novel forms of Beauty”.

He is interested in shaping nature, in molding it into a “purely physical loveliness.”
