Any reason for the capital letters in the bibliography, or may I turn them down? They hurt readability for me. --Suitov
I appreciate the fact that someone made the effort to write an article about Charles Baudelaire. However, His place in the pantheon of French poets demands that his life and work receive more thorough treatment than what was written here. I'm thinking of rewriting this entire article, although I am not a student of Baudelaire's work.
It is possible that depressed people find a familiar atmosphere in his poetry, but I don't think Baudelaire should be presented as a model for them. Quite the opposite! Baudelaire's life is an example of how not to live. His greatness lies in his poetic imagination and the art of his poetry. It is for this Baudelaire wanted to be remembered, and it is for this we should remember him.
It is doubtful that Charles Baudelaire had any interest in Buddism. --Maryevelyn 04:12, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- I agree wholeheartedly. I wonder if someone could translate http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Baudelaire That would be ideal. P.Riis 23:19, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)
