Poet, aesthete and hedonist, Baudelaire was also one of the most groundbreaking art critics of his time. Here he explores beauty, fashion, dandyism, the purpose of art and the role of the artist, and describes the painter who, for him, expresses most fully the drama of modern life.

They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives – and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.

Charles Baudelaire
Baudelaire nasceu em Paris a 9 de Abril de 1821, filho de François Baudelaire, então com 62 anos, e da jovem Caroline. Após a morte do marido em 1827, esta desposou o comandante Aupick, mais tarde general e embaixador francês em Espanha, com quem Baudelaire cedo se incompatibilizaria. |
