is not caused by an exterior catastrophe, but by the condensation of all the life inside it into a whirlpool whose origin is the specific atmosphere of the house. By falling into its pond, the Usher house disappears the same way it has appeared, through itself. It reabsorbs space and time. It concludes, form cause to effect, the closed circle of its existence and its heroes (Ibidem: 281). The image so exquisitely created by Poe in his short story has been painted by the Belgian painter René Magritte in his famous surreal work: „La Chute de la maison Usher” 1 (see Picture 1). It is certain that Margritte has carefully analyzed Poe’s text from the way he renders what Poe has imagined. In his painting we have identified three registers: I. The red, perfectly round moon, located in the exact centre of the painting, stands for the death of the twins. II. To the sides we notice at equal distances parts of two drawn curtains and not three because the text talks about the walls breaking in two and falling in the waters. III. The inferior half shows a branchless tree broken in half and ending in a huge leaf. It can represent the male descendance in the Usher family, but also Roderick’s and Madeline’s unity (the trunk) in two bodies (even though the tree is broken, it is not finally brought down) The analogies one notices in the short story intertwine each other. The Usher family and the Usher mansion often are one: both are degraded by time, torn asunder, crumbling on the inside, awaiting their demise. Roderick Usher and his sister, Madeline, are twins that both share the same soul and the same body: the castle. Their trio crumbles together, the disappearance of one implying the disappearance of all. In conclusion, we can affirm that the Usher domain contains not only the Usher family, but also its own space and time frame. The Usher house resembles the tie and space it belongs to; both belong to this ambience alone and are in a relation of complementarity: space and time impose the ambient of the House which feeds on them and becomes an essence of that space and time. Within the house, however, space and time lose their topography and their physical coordinates. Space and time cut their way out of a strange kind of reality and slip into a differently configured universe. The Usher family is made up of two twins and, at the same time, of two living carcasses. It is displaced to a remote, mysterious, queer realm where all contact with the exterior universe has been cut off. It also contains the mirror-like reflection of both in each other. Also, the house is forestalled by mental diseases manifested in: anxiety, depression, hallucination, even catalepsy (in Madeline’s case). The present essay has aimed at creating a different vision of time and space in the short story The Fall of the House of Usher. Our aim has been reached if the readers of this essay will discover a new key for the Usher House. Want to go inside? 1 La Chute de la maison Usher, oil on canvas, private collection, Cologne.
