What are Baudelaire's classic poems?
First of all, Flowers of Evil
Flowers of Evil is Charles? Baudelaire's poetry anthology (182 1- 1867) is a book with strict logic, structure and integration.
The flower of evil is called France? The great tradition has disappeared, and the new tradition has not yet formed? A wonderful flower in the transition period? . The works are characterized by romanticism, symbolism and realism.
The poems in Flowers of Evil are not arranged in chronological order, but belong to six groups according to their contents and themes. Each group has its own title: melancholy and ideal, Paris scenery, wine, flowers of evil, rebellion and death, among which melancholy and ideal are the most important. The arrangement of the six parts actually draws the trajectory of the conflict between melancholy and ideal.
Second, the melancholy of Paris.
"Melancholy Paris" is a French poet Charles? Baudelaire's collection of prose poems, first edition 1869.
Paris's Melancholy contains 50 prose poems, formerly known as small prose poems. The name melancholy in Paris was first used in 1864.
In this work, Baudelaire satirizes and satirizes the dirty and deformed real society, and mercilessly lashes the traditional decadent secular habits.
Third, "artificial paradise"
Seven years later, Baudelaire, one of the most important French symbolist poets, died of opium dependence after a miserable life.
In this book, Baudelaire described the wonderful, exquisite and fantastic experiences that alcohol, especially hashish and opium, brought to smokers in extremely delicate and lyrical language, as if he were there.
The book I want to write is not purely physical but ethical. What I want to prove is that people who pursue heaven get hell, and they are successfully preparing and digging this hell; This kind of success, if they foresee it, may scare them. ? Baudelaire 1864 said this in his speech in Brussels.
How to evaluate Baudelaire?
As we all know, Baudelaire's? Decadence? Or? Decadence? It became the most important label of his poems. Some people say that Baudelaire opened it for literature and art for the first time? Appreciate ugliness? Door, this is Baudelaire's solid significance to symbolism.
This seems to confirm to some extent that Baudelaire's life must be down and out, just as some scholars have compared him to Du Fu of France, but there must be some similarities.
Baudelaire himself once said that he felt lonely since he was a child, which was of course related to his mother's remarriage and boarding. Baudelaire even understood this as fate.
When we understand our feelings about loneliness in this way, life has to show a tragic color-we have to resist loneliness all our lives, but we have to walk in loneliness all our lives.
This is like the relationship between human beings and death, seeking a better life, but eventually going to the grave. It must be terrible and pitiful for a person to face death every day.
This is like Baudelaire's relationship with loneliness. In this case, Baudelaire's poetic temperament has been cultivated. A narcissistic and narcissistic attitude, a pure pride induced by being separated.
There is reason to believe that the collection and publication of Flowers of Evil should have a lot to do with Baudelaire's financial difficulties. Baudelaire tried to improve his financial situation and pay off his debts by this means. But even so, Baudelaire still demands his own image as always. With British simplicity? And then what? His respectful behavior often borders on affectation? .
From this point, it seems that we can also gain something from Baudelaire's formal style. His understanding and interpretation of the abnormality of people and society seems to come from his own living conditions.
Through the comparison between poetry and life experience, it is not difficult to find that Baudelaire's poetry? Negative life experience? It is a reality accumulated by melancholy, boredom, regret, trouble and pain, an ulcer of the souls of all beings, and the degeneration of art and the filth of lust in reality.
/kloc-at the end of 0/9 and the beginning of the 20th century, mental depression and uncertainty, anxiety, loneliness, emptiness and boredom in life, and the sinking of physical desires became the common mental state in the western world. Appear in Baudelaire's mind? Crowd? Image makes the poet's personal experience rise to the life experience of the group.
Baudelaire integrated into all people's loneliness, but remained independent and sober, thus truly expressing all people's lonely experience. The negative experience in Baudelaire's poems depicts the sick mentality of people in the century, is the ugly and mediocre reality experienced by different individuals, and reveals the darkness and morbidity of the world, including their own hearts.
