The poem concludes with the frustration of the speaker with his dog, expressed as the speaker states: Le Spleen de Paris represents a definitive break from traditional poetic forms. The text is composed of "prose poems" which span the continuum between "prosaic" and "poetic" works.

In fact, it was not until his waning years, plagued by physical ailments and the contraction of syphilis that he created a table of contents for the book. Baudelaire spent years to working on his book of poems that chronicled daily life in the city of Paris. In displaying the social antagonisms of the age, Baudelaire drew influence from many great artists of the time.

In fact, an active critical essayist himself, his critical reviews of other poets "elucidate the recesses of the mind that created Les Fleurs du Mal and Le Spleen de Paris. While there is much speculation regarding direct influence and inspiration in the creation of Le Spleen de Paris , the following colleagues seem to have clearly influenced the book of small poems:. Aloysius Betrand's Gaspard de la nuit: Baudelaire himself is quoted as citing this work as an inspiration for Paris Spleen. Magazine article "No ideas but in Crowds: Baudelaire's Paris Spleen " cites similarities between the writers in that like Baudelaire, Flaubert held the same motives and intentions in that he too wanted "to write the moral history of the men of my generation — or, more accurately, the history of their feelings.

The way in which the poem was received certainly lends to understanding the climate in which Baudelaire created Le Spleen de Paris , in that "It appears to be almost a diary entry, an explicit rundown of the day's events; those events seem to be precisely the kind that Charles Baudelaire would have experienced in the hectic and hypocritical world of the literary marketplace of his day. In order to truly understand how Le Spleen de Paris was received, one must first be acquainted with Baudelaire's earlier works.

The repressions and upheavals of resulted in massive censorship of literature, which did not bode well for Baudelaire's perhaps most famous work, Les Fleurs du Mal. Society was so shocked by the satanic references and sexual perversion in the book that at the time it was a critical and popular failure.

This put the anticipated reception of Le Spleen de Paris at a disadvantage. Like Flowers of Evil , it wasn't until much later that Paris Spleen was fully appreciated for what it was, a masterpiece that "brought the style of the prose poem to the broader republics of the people". That being said, just four years after Arthur Rimbaud used Baudelaire's work as a foundation for his poems, as he considered Baudelaire a great poet and pioneer of prose. A film Spleen , written by Eric Bomba-Ire, borrowed its title from Baudelaire's book of prose poems.

Baudelaire expressed a particular feeling that he called 'Spleen' which is a mixture of melancholy, rage, eros, and resignation, which ties in well with the movie's darkly woven tale of love, betrayal and passion. In "Let us beat up the poor", Baudelaire makes up a parable about economic and social equality: And he taunts the social reformer: In it, Baudelaire recognizes that he is part of a society full of hypocrites.

His individual self becomes "blurred The ancient Greek thyrsus had connotations of "unleashed sexuality and violence, of the profound power of the irrational. In "The Bad Windowpane Maker" Baudelaire speaks of a "kind of energy that springs from ennui and reverie" that manifests itself in a particularly unexpected way in the most inactive dreamers. Doctors and moralists alike are at a loss to explain where such mad energy so suddenly comes from to these lazy people, why they suddenly feel the need to perform such absurd and dangerous deeds.

The prefatory letter Baudelaire wrote to Arsene Houssaye, the editor of La Presse , was not necessarily intended to be included in the publication. When Baudelaire drew up his table of contents for the projected book form, he did not include the letter. It is possible, then, that the letter only appeared in La Presse as a means of flattery to ensure that Houssaye would publish the poems.

Who among us has not dreamed, in his ambitious days, of the miracle of a poetic prose, musical without rhythm or rhyme, supple enough and jarring enough to be adapted to the soul's lyrical movements, the undulations of reverie, to the twists and turns that consciousness takes?
