This collection brings together Les Fleurs du mal, or The Flowers of Evil, and Paris Spleen, also called Little Poems in Prose. Verse and short prose scenes give shape to the ache beneath city life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Spleen and Ideal, longing pulls against despair. Parisian Scenes brings the streets into focus, while other sections explore wine, vice, rebellion and death. Paris Spleen carries these concerns into brief prose pieces. Across both works, Baudelaire seeks poetry that belongs to a city being torn down and rebuilt, rather than to old myths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInside this book\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeauty beside decay\u003c\/strong\u003e – Encounter perfume and a dead animal on a path within the same searching poetic world.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLonging against despair\u003c\/strong\u003e – Explore the pull between spleen and ideal, where desire meets an ache that persists.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFaces in the street\u003c\/strong\u003e – Notice a passing stranger and an old woman in a doorway as subjects for poetry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMusic within strict form\u003c\/strong\u003e – Hear regular stanzas, rhymes and sonnets give shape to love, lust, boredom and death.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoetry beyond verse\u003c\/strong\u003e – Discover how Paris Spleen makes short prose scenes carry the weight of city life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for readers drawn to dark, sensuous, city-minded poetry, and anyone curious about where modern poetry begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOpen the first page now and step into Baudelaire’s Paris, where beauty and melancholy share the street.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Library of Alexandria Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":59534625931612,"sku":"LOA-C3030-PB","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":59908457857372,"sku":"LOA-C3030-HC","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/9442\/8764\/files\/03030_en_ebook-front_c08.jpg?v=1792174975","url":"https:\/\/libraryofalexandria.com\/pt\/products\/os-poemas-e-poemas-em-prosa-de-charles-baudelaire","provider":"The Library of Alexandria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
