dc.description.abstractAbstract The present study investigated the ways English foreign language learners respond and receive Poe's detective stories namely, The Murders in the Rue Morgue and The Purloined Letter. In order to examine EFL learners’ responses towards Poe's detective fiction, the study employed a mixed research design; using non-experimental research with convergent-parallel approach. The study involved 30 participants; all 30 subjects were first year students of English from the University of Abbess Laghrour-department of English- Khenchela. All were volunteer participants and are selected on the basics of non-probability purposive sampling. The data were collected using both questionnire and interview.The findings of the study suggest that, reading Poe’s detective stories had great influence on EFL learners’ thoughts and emotions. Additionally, results obtained from interviews showed learners’ aesthetic experiences with the literary text being read. The research found that EFL learners responded to Poe’s detective stories according to their experiences calling back all what they know to their reading; they embraced aesthetic moments stepping away from efferent ones.
