Eureka (1848) is a lengthy non-fiction work by American author Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) which he subtitled "A Prose Poem", though it has also been subtitled as "An Essay on the Material and Spiritual Universe".

About Edgar a. Poe

Historians of the mystery genre credit Edgar Allan Poe with inventing the detective story and along with it, the fictional detective. While it is true that there had been earlier tales of crime and discovery, it was in "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" that Poe pulled all the elements together in what is arguably the first detective story.
