Аннотация

From the introduction by Michael Hamburger: “Baudelaire's prose poems were written at long intervals during the last twelve or thirteen years of his life. The prose poem was a medium much suited to his habits and character. Being pre-eminently a moralist, he needed a medium that enabled him to illustrate a moral insight as briefly and vividly as possible. Being an artist and sensualist, he needed a medium that was epigrammatic or aphoristic, but allowed him scope for fantasy and for that element of suggestiveness which he considered essential to beauty. His thinking about society and politics, as about everything else, was experimental; like the thinking of most poets it drew on experience and imagination, rather than on facts and general arguments. That is another reason why the prose poem proved a medium so congenial to Baudelaire.” Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867) was a French poet, essayist, art critic and translator for Edgar Allan Poe. He is credited with coining the term «modernity» to describe the fleeting, ephemeral experience of life in an urban metropolis and the responsibility art has to capture that experience.

Аннотация

Ein Skandalbuch der modernen Literatur, das bei seinem Erscheinen im Jahr 1875 gleich verboten wurde – das ist der Gedichtzyklus «Die Blumen des Bösen» (Original: «Fleurs du Mal»). Die düsteren Verse kreisen um den Menschen am Abgrund, das Spannungsverhältnis von entwurzeltem Individuum und monströs erscheinender Großstadt, um das Morbide, Bizarre und um eine seinerzeit skandalöse Erotik. Die Übersetzung von Monika Fahrenbach-Wachendorff, eine gereimte Versübertragung, setzt sich zum Ziel, Baudelaires Text, vor allem seine Bilder, genau wiederzugeben und die Dichte und Eindringlichkeit des Originals zu bewahren. – Mit einer kompakten Biographie des Autors.

Аннотация

Les Flers du Mal, translated as The Flowers of Evil (first published in 1857), originally condemned as obscene, is recognized as a masterpiece, especially remarkable for the brilliant phrasing, rhythm, and expressiveness of its lyrics. Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867) was one of the greatest French poets of the 19th century. His work has been a major influence on Western poetry and modern poetry in general as, thematically, he was one of the first poets whose subject was often urban life and its dark side, with all of its evils and the degradation of its temptations. His poems, classical in form, introduced Symbolism, he is also known as a writer of the Decadent group. Baudelaire was moody and rebellious, imbued with an intense religious mysticism, and his work reflects an unremitting inner despair. His main theme is the inseparable nature of beauty and corruption.
