Petits poèmes en prose Le spleen de Paris French Edition eBook Charles Baudelaire
Charles Baudelaire is one of the most famous of French poets. Regrettably, I have yet to read his magnum opus, “Les Fleurs du Mal.” I figured that this free Kindle edition of “Le spleen de Paris” might be a good introduction, and it has been. Admittedly, the expression “prose poems” seems to be no different than “incisive, short essays.” This collection contains 50 of them, with the focus often being on the “down and out” of Paris, in the early days of its industrialization. It was published by his sister, two years after his death. In the introduction, he attributes the “style” of “prose poems” to Aloysius Bertrand’s “Gaspard de la Nuit.”In one poem there are two kids fighting over a piece of bread – hum – a “cake,” and Baudelaire bemoans what sort of country is this? Likewise, there is an incisive look at the “saltibanques,” the itinerant actors who move from town to town scratching out a living by amusing the population. Other essays cover a familiar ground of the “generous player” who sells his soul to the devil, and the despair of the aging process. One of the most bizarre essays is entitled “La Corde.” After her son commits suicide by hanging, the mother takes down the rope and nail and sells them for their notoriety “value.” Why Baudelaire dedicates this poem to Edouard Manet is never explained. In yet another poem he bemoans the rapid passage of time, with the metaphor of being push by a cattle prod. Don’t I know it! And for the anguish of life, the solution is posited in “Enivrez-vous.” Stay drunk! Fortunately, I don’t know that one.
Empathy for the poor is demonstrated in yet another poem: Beat them! In the epilogue, he climbs a mountain (where Sacré Coeur would be built?) and looks down on the: “hospital, houses of prostitution, purgatory, hell and prisons” of Paris and says: “I love you, o’ capital immoral. Courtesans and bandits, so often you offer the pleasures that do not include the profane vulgarities.
Overall, 4-stars for a Baudelaire intro.

Petits poèmes en prose Le spleen de Paris French Edition eBook Charles Baudelaire Reviews
See title. This darn book changed my life; really made a difference. See Mark 253 for info into how. Good day friend.
Superbes textes en prose, avec la touche poétique magique de l'écriture de Baudelaire. Vraiment superbe et tellement agréable à lire.
This book is wonderful! I'm trying to learn the French language and so i have this book and another that has been translated. I love Baudelaire's poems and prose and learning them in the language they were written in is a wonderful gift.
Don't really like Baudelaire anyway but this translation is fairly frequently off the mark.
