About this product

Product Information

The title of Baudelaire's famed collection of poetry, Les Fleurs du Mal, suggests the importance of flower figures for one of the major French poets of the l9th-century. Yet, until now, critics have largely overlooked the significance of flower imagery for the poetics of Baudelaire, his Romantic predecessors, contemporaries, and Symbolist successors. In this study, Philip Knight examines the general trends in poetic flower imagery, discussing the influence of popular paraliterature's idealization of flowers, and finally arguing that flower figures became the one indispensable emblem of both continuity and change for the poets of the time.

I bought this book of ‘10 Poems from Ireland’ from this company as I could not find it anywhere else, and I wanted to give it to my husband, who has Irish roots, instead of a card on Fathers’ Day. On opening the packet it came in, I discovered that it was stamped throughout ‘Withdrawn from stock - Dublin City Public Libraries’. I would still have bought it had I known as it is a lovely little collection. Otherwise it arrive quickly but a fuller description would have been welcomed.
