Reading Baudelaire's Le Spleen de Paris and the Nineteenth-Century Prose Poem

Beschreibung

A study of Charles Baudelaire's Le Spleen de Paris (1859) that explores how the practice of reading prose poems might be different from reading poetry in verse. It illustrates how Baudelaire wrote texts that he considered poems and how this form shows aspects of his poetic modernity.
