Answer
Brief Explanations:
In MLA style, when the author's name is mentioned in the text (here, Edgar Allan Poe is already part of the text introduction), the in - text citation should just include the page number. But if the author's name is not in the text, it should be included in the parenthetical citation. Since the source is an essay by Poe in an edited book, if we assume the author's name is not in the main text flow (but in the Works Cited, the main author is Poe), the correct MLA in - text citation for a direct quote or paraphrase from this source (where the author is Poe) is ((Poe)) (if the author's name is not in the text narrative). If the author's name is in the text (e.g., "As Poe argues..."), then the page number (99) would be sufficient. But given the options in the drop - down (assuming the text doesn't already have the author's name in the narrative flow before the quote/paraphrase), ((Poe)) is the more appropriate MLA - style in - text citation among the given options.
Answer:
((Poe))
