Stupidity, delusion, selfishness and lust
torment our bodies and possess our minds,
and we sustain our affable remorse
the way a beggar nourishes his lice
Our sins are stubborn, our contrition lame;
we want our scruples to be worth our while-
how cheerfully we crawl back to the mire:
with few cheap tears washing our stains away!
Satan Trismegistus subtly rocks
our ravished spirits on his wicked bed
until the precious metal of our will
is leached out by this cunning alchemist:
the Devil's's hand directs our every move-
the things we loathed become the things we love:
day by day we drop though stinking shades
quite undeterred on our descent to Hell!
Like a poor profligate who sucks and bites
the withered breasts of some well-seasoned trull,
we snatch in passing at clandestine joys
and squeeze the oldest orange harder yet.
Wriggling in our brains like a million worms,
a demon demos holds its revels there,
and when we breathe, the Lethe in our lungs

http://www.uvm.edu/~sgutman/Baudelaire.htm
Charles Baudelaire Charles Baudelaire, the great French poet of the mid nineteenth century whose powerful writing ushered in a era of symbolism, is one of the most important poets of the nineteenth century. Not only a poet of stunning imagery and extraordinary musicality, he was also one of the first to herald that new consciousness urban, pushing at the edges of things, uncertain of itself which we, today, still recognize as our own modern way of being. Baudelaire life was almost as important as his poetry. His rejection of bourgeois values, his use of drugs, his fascination with sex, his close friendships with painters and other poets: all of these made him a sort of model for the poet as a 'bohemian' figure. He is the archetype of the poet as someone who lives his own life on the fringes of society, rebellious in life style, dedicated to moving so far beyond the middle class that his work shocks them so deeply that their either cry out, 'But is it art?' or attempt to censor it as blasphemous, evil, pornographic. Brief versions of his biography are available on-line in several of the links below.

Malý koutek poezie

..do té hrozné knihy jsem vložil celého svého ducha, celé své srdce,
celé své náboženství, celou svou nenávist..
Tato slova napsal o své básnické sbírce Kvìty zla v roce 1865 Charles Baudelaire.
Kvìty zla
vznikaly celý jeho život. Pøestože byly nìkteré básnì z této sbírky publikovány èasopisecky již od roku 1845, první vydání Kvìtù zla se v nákladu 1320 výtiskù objevilo na pultech až 25.èervna 1857 a ihned zpùsobilo velké pozdvižení nejen v literárních kruzích. Témìø okamžitì byl celý náklad Kvìtù zabaven, Baudelaire spolu s nakladateli obvinìn z urážky náboženství a veøejné mravnosti, odsouzen k penìžité pokutì a k vyškrtnutí nìkolika básní z dalšího vydání Kvìtù (tyto ovšem vyšly samostatnì již roku 1866 v Bruselu pod názvem Trosky a pozdìji byly zaøazeny do reedic Kvìtù).
V otevøeností provokujících, brilantních verších Charlese Baudelaira, se prolínají odrazy marné touhy po štìstí a odtud pramenící bolesti se smrti, jež nedìsí, ale pøináší klid duši; ženské krásy, kterou opìvuje i proklíná zároveò; jeho nespoutané osobnosti a bohémského života; milostných zklamání; pohrdání spoleèností, které vládne Pøetváøka a Zlo...
A nejen verši se Baudelaire zapsal do literárního svìta - díky nìmu coby pøekladateli se do povìdomí dostalo dílo Edgara Allana Poea, do té doby Francii témìø neznámého.

    Charles Baudelaire
    Charles Baudelaire is buried in the Cimetiere de Montparnasse, Paris, France. (See map...ref no. 5) In 1857 Baudelaire published his masterpiece Les Fleurs du mal - arguably the most significant collection of poetry to be published in Europe during the 19th Century. It contained 101 skilfully wrought lyrics - including many sonnets. When it was originally published, six of the poems were banned as being offensive to public morals and Baudelaire received a fine. In Les Fleur du mal Baudelaire sought to create beauty out of the ugliness and degradation that he saw in contemporary Paris life. In 1842 Baudelaire came into his family inheritance - his father having died in 1827. However, he soon squandered large amounts of money on fine wine, fine foods and drugs. In 1844 his family took legal action to prevent him accessing his legacy which further exacerbated his financial difficulties.

    CHARLES PIERRE BAUDELAIRE (1821-1867), French poet, was born in Paris on the 9th of April 1821. His father, who was a civil servant in good position and an amateur artist, died in 1827, and in the following year his mother married a lieutenantcolonel named Aupick, who was afterwards ambassador of France at various courts. Baudelaire was educated at Lyons and at the College Louis-le-Grand in Paris. On taking his degree in 1839 he determined to enter on a literary career, and during the next two years pursued a very irregular way of life, which led his guardians, in 1841, to send him on a voyage to India . When he returned to Paris, after less than a year's absence, he was of age; but in a year or two his extravagance threatened to exhaust his small patrimony, and his family obtained a decree to place his property in trust . His salons of 1845 and 1846 attracted immediate attention by the boldness with which he propounded many views then novel, but since generally accepted. He took part with the revolutionaries in 1848, and for some years interested himself in republican politics, but his permanent convictions were aristocratic and Catholic . Baudelaire was a slow and fastidious worker, and it was not until 1857 that he produced his first and famous volume of poems

    Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867) One of the greatest French poets of the 19th century, called 'the father of modern criticism,' who shocked his contemporaries with his visions of lust and decay. Baudelaire formed with and Paul Verlaine the so-called Decadents. Baudelaire was the first to equate modern, artificial, and decadent. In LE PEINTRE DE LA VIE MODERNE (1863, The Painter of Modern Life) Baudelaire argued in favor of artificiality, stating that vice is natural in that it is selfish, while virtue is artificial because we must restrain our natural impulses in order to be good. The snobbish aesthete, the dandy, was for Baudelaire the ultimate hero and the best proof of an absolutely purposeless existence. He is a gentleman who never becomes vulgar and always preserves the cool smile of the stoic. "There can be no progress (real, that is, moral) except in the individual and by the individual himself." (from Charles Baudelaire was born in Paris, where he lived most of his life. His father, François, was a sixty-year-old ex-priest and widower when he married Caroline Dufaÿs, a penniless orphan, who was twenty-six. François died in 1827. For some years Baudelaire was on good terms with his stepfather, Major Jacques Aupick, but in the late 1830s they started to have difficulties. Aupick, who became a senator, died in 1857. Baudelaire worshipped his mother and could not accept her second marriage. In ON COEUR MIS À NU (1897) he wrote: "Sense of solitude from childhood. In spite of the family - and above all when surrounded by children of my own age - I had a sense of being destined to eternal solitude." Jean-Paul Sartre has argued in

    Charles Baudelaire
    Full Name - CHARLES-PIERRE BAUDELAIRE
    Place of Birth: Paris, France
    Mother: Caroline Defayis
    Father: François Baudelaire Charles Baudelaire was a 19th century French poet, translator, and literary and art critic whose reputation rests primarily on Les Fleurs du mal; (1857;The Flowers of Evil) which was perhaps the most important and influential poetry collection published in Europe in the 19th century. Similarly, his Petits poèmes en prose (1868; "Little Prose Poems") was the most successful and innovative early experiment in prose poetry of the time. Known for his highly contraversial, and often dark poetry, as well as his translation of the tales of Edgar Allan Poe, Baudelaire's life was filled with drama and strife, from financial disaster to being prosecuted for obscenity and blasphemy. Long after his death many look upon his name as representing depravity and vice: Others see him as being the poet of modern civilization, seeming to speak directly to the 20th century. In his often intospective poetry, Baudelaire revealed himself as a seeker of God without religious beliefs, searching in every manifestation of life for its true

    I am thinking about adding a page to this site for people who would like to leave messages about Baudelaire or poetry in general or email others with similar poetic interests. I figure that it would be good for people who are researching literature to talk to others. I am not advanced enough to know how to do a chat format or anything, but i may be able to figure out how to do a message board. Tell me what you think and be sure to share any ideas by emailing me "If there are amoung our poets any who are greater and more highly gifted than Baudelaire, there are none more important." - M. Paul Valery (Shanks viii) Charles Baudelaire was born in Paris on April 9, 1821. His mother, Caroline Archimbaut-Dufays gave birth to Charles when she was 28-years-old to a much older man Francois Baudelaire of sixty-one. Charles' father instilled in him an appreciation for art. Francois Baudelaire's best friends were artists and he often took his young son to museums and galleries. Charles often sat by his father's side at his easel to watch his father paint. Some of Charles' earliest memories were of the times his father took him to the Palace of the Luxembourg to explain the statues that were there. Baudelaire twice stated, "Pictures, my only, my greatest and my earliest passion (Shanks 7)." When Charles was six, his father died and Charles became very attached to his mother. A year after his father's death, Charles' mother married Captain Jacques Aupick. Charles now was forced to share the affection of his mother. Gone where the times when his mother was completely his. Aupick also did not like to share the love of his new wife with the son of another man, but his intentions to raise Charles where good. His strategy was, however, not the best. Aupick was a strict discipliarian. He expected a spoiled child who had, previously, been raised by a man with the love of the arts to obey an order without hesitation like a new soldier.
