Cycle Psycho
James W. Gargano, in what many Poe critics regard as the premier essay
on "The Black Cat," may have been the first commentator to offer a
cogently and logically convincing explanation to show that what the
narrator "assigns" to the "spirit of perverseness" and the "Fiend
Intemperance" (Poe 851) may, in fact, "be reduced to ordinary
psychological and moral laws" ("Perverseness" 172).
