Obra poética completa

Complete poetic work collects the lyrical production, both in verse and prose, of one of the crucial figures of Western culture. In Charles Baudelaire, far from a bucolic and pastoral writing in which the purest passions, good or beauty, are extolled and elevated, we enter an atmosphere in which despair and the depravity of humanity germinate and proliferate. With his "moral offense", our untimely author reveals that a cursed heart flourishes in the chest of modernity. Baudelaire's voice is the most emphatic confession of an indisputably human life in a new world that was emerging, so that his writings and his own biography, entangled and indiscernible, bring the deep roots of modernity back to the surface. Any attempt to dissociate this ambiguous relationship between era, oeuvre and vie generates obscurities that lead to false interpretations of the poète maudit and that distort the essence of Parisian bohemia, the turning point of the future avant-garde.
