Understanding Les Fleurs Du Mal: Critical Readings

Portada
William J. Thompson
Vanderbilt University Press, 1997 - 241 pàgines
Surprisingly, there are few book-length studies available that approach the poems in Charles Baudelaireís collection on an individual basis. Understanding "Les Fleurs du Mal" fills this gap by providing students and serious readers with clear, scholarly "explications" to many of the most widely read of Baudelaire's poems.
