Since its publication, The Flowers of Evil has been celebrated for its stylistic audacity and thematic depth. The work marked a turning point in literature, becoming a cornerstone of symbolism and modern poetry. The poems reflect the tensions between fleeting beauty and the inherent corruption of existence, addressing universal questions such as desire, suffering, and the inevitability of death. This balance between the sublime and the abject continues to resonate deeply with readers and scholars.
The enduring relevance of The Flowers of Evil lies in its ability to reveal the contradictions of the human spirit and the ethical dilemmas that arise in the confrontation between desire and redemption. By exploring the boundaries of experience and the duality that defines human nature, Baudelaire invites readers to reflect on their own inner turmoil and contemplate the transformative power of art and poetry.

Charles-Pierre Baudelaire was born in Paris on April 9, 1821. He was the son of Franรงois Baudelaire and Caroline Archimbaut-Dufays. His father died in 1827, when Baudelaire was only six years old. His mother remarried Colonel Jacques Aupick, and the family moved to Lyon. He began his education at the Collรจge Royal de Lyon and later studied at the Lycรฉe Louis-le-Grand. Even at this time, he demonstrated his eccentricity and rebellious spirit, resulting in his expulsion from school.
When he came of age, Baudelaire received an inheritance of 75,000 francs from his father. The family moved back to Paris after his stepfather was transferred to the capital. Baudelaire began spending his money on gambling and drugs, especially alcohol. He adopted a bohemian lifestyle, associating with various artists.
During this period, he lived in a boarding house in the city and became deeply indebted. Due to his extravagant spending and dissolute life, his stepfather and mother forced him to travel to Calcutta, India, in 1841. However, he decided to return to Paris before reaching his destination. He began writing poems and published his masterpiece, "Les Fleurs du mal" (The Flowers of Evil), in 1857. Comprising 100 poems, the collection was censored, and the poet had to pay a fine to the state and the publisher. The primary issue of censorship was the themes explored by the writer, resulting in the removal of six poems deemed obscene.
He died in his hometown on August 31, 1867, at the age of only 46. During his lifetime, he did not achieve fame and was recognized posthumously. Baudelaire is considered one of the greatest French poets.
