520 |a Edgar Allan Poe is one of the most celebrated of the early American Gothic writers, haunting not only modern art but also continental philosophy. Lacan’s seminar on Poe’s short story “The Purloined Letter” opened up a radically new conception of psychoanalysis (by highlighting the dynamic of mis-seeing in the tale, thus offering an instance of how the gaze operates), which in turn provoked Derrida’s critical deconstruction of Lacan’s reading of the text. It is no accident that their dispute revolves around a crime story (a robbery and its undoing), and in all three pieces it is the very act of analysis that occupies center stage. What is striking, and one of the points of departure for this chapter, “is the connection between Poe’s writings and those kinds of art which, since the 1960s, have adopted site, architecture and interior as their media” where his “obsession with interiors and their destruction - the Gothic core of his writing - is a constant, unspoken presence in this art” (Jones, 2000/2007:209). Drawing on these artists and theorists, the chapter will bring into focus the question of time (as foregrounded in Derrida’s concept of hauntology) so as to explore the idea of spectral evidence.
