«Petits Poèmes en prose (Le Spleen de Paris)» is Charles Baudelaire's prose poetry collection, published by Larousse in paperback (303 pages, in French).
In this work, Baudelaire becomes a city stroller and finds his poetic material in urban Paris, with its streets, street scenes and melancholic atmospheres, rather than drawing inspiration from nature. The work moves away from conventional poetry and, through prose, explores inner experience, ephemeral beauty and the modernity of a fascinating and hostile great city.
This Larousse edition, published in 2008, belongs to the Petits Classiques collection (no. 89) and offers the complete text with commentary by Philippe Lehu.
The edition is aimed at the French school curriculum, making it suitable for secondary school students and readers who want to read the classic in French.
Charles-Pierre Baudelaire was a French poet, essayist, translator and art critic. His poems are described as exhibiting mastery of rhythm and rhyme, containing an exoticism inherited from the Romantics, and are based on observations of real life.
