About the work of Charles Baudelaire
Charles Baudelaire, one of the greatest French poets of the nineteenth century, was the “stepchild” of his time and the forerunner of the time of the future, who opened and presented to the world, according to Victor Hugo’s apt expression, the poetry of “a new thrill.” It is not for nothing that the well-known Ukrainian poet, delicate lyric poet Alexander Oles wrote: “The” flowers of evil “by Sh. Baudelaire are flowers that grew in our contradictory soul on the basis of the cruel 20th century.”
The official Khan’s criticism of the Second Empire, in the person of the custodians of bourgeois legitimacy, considered the poet a dangerous immoral blasphemer, anarchist and insane. And his enemies-enemies, two decades after the poet’s death, declared Baudelaire the fatal singer of Evil, who does not recognize any moral and religious principles and blasphemously neglects the traditional artistic criteria in art.
As
Cain’s the children! the
time is come to be you in the wild! “
In other words, the spiritual appearance of Charles Baudelaire with his unquenchable thirst for the “Absolute Ideal” was alien
The nature of a temple, where from living columns
Scraps of vague phrases emanate from time to time.
As in the more common symbols we wander in this temple,
And with a kinship look he looks at mortals.
Like voices at a distant distance,
When their harmonious chorus is one, like a shadow and light, The
sound, smell, form, color,
Deep, dark meaning found in the fusion echo.
