Sinossi
Charles Baudelaire, considerato il padre della poesia moderna, è anche autore di testi in prosa fra i più influenti e audaci del XIX secolo. Assiduo frequentatore dei salons parigini, era solito esprimere le sue teorie sull'arte moderna e sulla filosofia dell'arte in una critica arguta e diretta. Questo breve saggio si sviluppa attorno ai principi del Romanticismo mentre Baudelaire accompagna metodicamente il lettore attraverso le opere di Delacroix e Ingres, rivelando la sua convinzione che il perseguimento dell'ideale è essenziale nell'espressione artistica. Una lente molto utile per capire la critica d'arte del XIX secolo in Francia e le opinioni mutevoli riguardo all'essenza del Romanticismo e dell'artista come genio creativo. La prefazione di Adolfo Tura offre una nuova lettura di questo testo fondamentale mettendone in evidenza l'importanza anche per il pubblico odierno.

An early oeuvre of Baudelaire, one finds him quite different from the tortured poet he seems to represent in what's the best-known of his work; here, even if he certainly is devilish, still he fits in the category of criticism. And so, this is a collection of criticism pieces on the state of Modern
‘You can live three days without bread - without poetry, never; and those of you who can say the contrary are mistaken; they are out of their minds’. . Charles Baudelaire was a very complex man - on one hand he was a dandy, spending his money left and right and concerning himself mostly with his appe Leggi tutto
Picked this up because I enjoyed the joie de vivre shown in snippets of Baudelaire's writing cited in "The Amateur: The Pleasures of Doing What You Love" by Andy Merrifield ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... ). And as a former university debater, I like the idea of the Salon as an intellectual Leggi tutto
