S. Eliot. We experience Baudelaire in myriad ways through his multifaceted writing. His sensuous poems--dreams of escape to an impossible, preferably tropical, elsewhere--draw us in with their descriptive and perceptual richness. There is also the bitter, compassionate, and desolate Baudelaire. Ultimately, Baudelaire's true genius might reside in his expressive force and in the tension between his passions and intellect. The latter is most evident in his control of rhetoric and poetic form, and--given the poems' density of language, thought, and feeling--his astonishing clarity. This new English rendition of Baudelaire by award-winning translator Beverley Bie Brahic includes poems from his celebrated volumes: Les Fleurs du mal, Les EÌpaves, Le Spleen de Paris, and Paradis artificiels. It also includes several of his prose poems, as well as an excerpt from his famous essay on wine and hashish. The poems in verse have Baudelaire's French originals on facing pages; the prose poems, unaccompanied by their originals, are printed near the poems in verse with which they resonate. Complete with the translator's illuminating introduction and notes, this beautifully crafted volume is an important addition to Baudelaire's work in English translation. -- provided by publisher 546 $a Translated from the French. 600 10 $a Baudelaire, Charles, $d 1821-1867 $v Translations into English. 600 17 $a Baudelaire, Charles, $d 1821-1867. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00031368 655 7 $a Translations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423791 700 12 $a Baudelaire, Charles, $d 1821-1867. $t Works. $k Selections. 700 12 $a Baudelaire, Charles, $d 1821-1867. $t Works. $k Selections. $l English. 700 1 $a Brahic, Beverley Bie, $e translator. 830 0 $a French list. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317024521.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210406020558.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A30F67AC129911EBB48536AA50ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
