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.

La Covid-19 a-t-elle influencé de quelque manière que ce soit le ressenti et une expressivité poétique sous la contrainte d'un adverbe imposé dans le premier vers ? Après "D'une rive à une autre" (édition 2018) et "Transcendance" (édition 2019), le recueil des nominés et lauréats "La Différence - Poésie 2020" nous ramène...

«C'est que notre époque se trompe sur elle-même: elle se croit rationnelle et l'est fort mal; révolutionnaire, et n'est sans doute que totalitaire. Le totalitarisme, ce virus, rend les uns euphoriques de bien-être et les autres enragés de destruction. Que faire alors, pour le salut de l'homme? Que peut en particulier un poète, pour qui ce salut et la parole humaine ne font qu'un? La même chose, toujours : forcer accès à la lumière jusqu'au...

La raison y sombre parfois en forçant l'esprit à emprunter un chemin différent à l'humeur du mois pour adoucir le coeur de son moi intérieur.
Pour clturer chaque chapitre, un poème en quatre saisons est l'épithète de cette...

Escrito en prosa hace más de ciento cincuenta años, este Poema del hachís es un desborde a la noción de género, una mezcla entre ensayo científico, poesía y testimonio. Baudelaire investiga de forma erudita y lucida sobre los orígenes del hachís, su uso espiritual y recreativo, y sobre todo las alteraciones que genera en la conciencia. Se trata de una invitación a pensar el consumo como una forma de conocimiento, una excitación de la imaginación,...
