Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867) fue un poeta, crítico de arte y traductor francés, considerado una de las figuras más influyentes de la literatura moderna. Es especialmente conocido por su obra Les Fleurs du mal (Las flores del mal, 1857), un libro de poemas que causó escándalo en su época por tratar temas como la sensualidad, el tedio, el spleen (melancolía existencial), la muerte y el satanismo. Combina el romanticismo con un estilo pre-simbolista, precursor del modernismo.Temas recurrentes: Belleza en lo decadente, lo prohibido, lo urbano, la dualidad del alma humana (ángel/demonio), el hastío moderno.Lenguaje: Rico en simbolismo, imágenes sensoriales y musicalidad poética. Obra principal:Las flores del mal incluye secciones como:Spleen et Idéal (el alma dividida entre lo sublime y lo miserable), Tableaux parisiens (poemas sobre la ciudad de París), Révolte (la rebelión contra Dios o el orden), La Mort (reflexiones sobre la muerte).Seis poemas del libro fueron censurados por "ofensa a la moral pública", y Baudelaire fue multado. Esa censura no se levantó en Francia sino hasta 1949. Es considerado uno de los padres de la poesía moderna.Fue una gran influencia para los simbolistas (como Verlaine, Rimbaud y Mallarmé) y para poetas del siglo XX como T. S. Eliot y Paul Valéry.

This week's readings on Ted Gioia's Immersive Humanities List felt unexpectedly thin and disjointed. We stepped backward in time to Gustave Flaubert and Charles Baudelaire, which made me keenly aware of how much I've come to rely on the list's chronological momentum. I also continue to struggle with “selections,” especially in poetry, where I suspect I shortchange the material when time and energy are limited.Flaubert's short story “A Simple Life,” from Trois Contes, follows the entire life of Félicité, a housemaid whose quiet existence unfolds in a series of small, often bleak episodes. It's beautifully written but profoundly sad—an example of realism so stripped of meaning that the character almost disappears.Baudelaire proved even harder for me. Despite repeated attempts (in both English and French), I found Les Fleurs du Mal abrasive rather than illuminating. This week reminded me that this project isn't about comfort or personal taste—and sometimes, that's the point.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm

Comment ses admirateurs lui ont-ils rendu hommage ? Comment travaillait-il dans le secret de son atelier ?Grâce à des archives, des affiches anciennes et des photographies rarement exposées au public, l'ancienne chambre de l'artiste présente les deux vies d'un lieu de mémoire, appartement puis atelier devenu musée.À son ouverture au public en 1932, « l'atelier Delacroix » est voulu par le premier président de la Société des Amis, le peintre Maurice Denis, comme « une illustration idéale du Journal. », un moyen de pénétrer dans les pensées du maître et dans les secrets de son atelier comme on le fait en lisant son journal intime. Le Delacroix que l'on découvre encore aujourd'hui au musée est celui des esquisses et des croquis qu'il conservait dans son atelier sans les exposer, celui des réseaux amicaux et des admirateurs.De son vivant comme après sa mort, les admirateurs d'Eugène Delacroix sont nombreux et les manières de lui rendre hommage multiples : peindre des copies de ses tableaux les plus célèbres, créer des peintures, sculptures ou écrits le représentant ou évoquant son œuvre… Parmi ces admirateurs on peut citer des artistes aussi différents que William Bouguereau, Henri Fantin-Latour, Hippolyte Poterlet, Odilon Redon ou Charles Baudelaire.Qui étaient les familiers de Delacroix ? Famille, amis, ou simples relations, des hommes et des femmes se présentent dans les cartels et évoquent leur lien avec Eugène Delacroix.Même si le peintre paraissait parfois plus préoccupé par ses propres pensées que par le monde autour de lui, il allait visiter sa famille et ses amis, répondait à des invitations mondaines et a notamment voyagé en Angleterre et au Maroc.Eugène Delacroix travaillait essentiellement dans son atelier. Il trouvait son inspiration dans ses propres œuvres dessinées ou peintes, dans les copies et estampes d'après les maîtres qu'il conservait mais aussi dans sa mémoire et son imagination.Ce n'est pas le Delacroix public des grands décors ou celui des œuvres qu'il exposait au Salon que l'on découvre dans cette nouvelle présentation mais l'homme privé, celui des esquisses, des familiers et des admirateurs.#DelacroixLieu Hébergé par Acast.

Charles Baudelaire (1821 – 1867) fue un poeta, crítico de arte y ensayista francés, considerado una de las figuras más influyentes de la literatura del siglo XIX y padre espiritual de la modernidad poética.Nació en París en el seno de una familia burguesa. Tras la muerte de su padre, cuando él tenía seis años, su madre contrajo segundas nupcias con un militar estricto, lo que marcó profundamente la sensibilidad y rebeldía del joven Baudelaire. Estudió en el prestigioso liceo Louis-le-Grand, pero su carácter indisciplinado lo llevó a una vida bohemia y turbulenta.En su juventud llevó un estilo de vida disoluto, frecuentando prostíbulos, cafés y ambientes marginales. En 1841, su padrastro intentó alejarlo de París enviándolo a un viaje a la India, aunque Baudelaire solo llegó hasta la isla de la Reunión. De regreso a Francia, heredó una considerable fortuna paterna, que dilapidó rápidamente en excesos, lo cual provocó que su familia lo pusiera bajo tutela judicial.Su obra más célebre es Les Fleurs du mal (Las flores del mal, 1857), un poemario que escandalizó a la sociedad francesa por su exploración de temas como la sensualidad, la decadencia, el erotismo, la muerte, el spleen (angustia existencial) y la belleza en lo prohibido. La justicia lo acusó de atentar contra la moral pública y lo condenó, junto con su editor, a pagar una multa y suprimir algunos poemas. Pese a ello, el libro se convirtió en un hito de la poesía moderna y una influencia decisiva en autores posteriores como Verlaine, Rimbaud, Mallarmé y los simbolistas.Además de su poesía, Baudelaire fue un agudo crítico de arte y literatura, gran difusor de la obra de Edgar Allan Poe, de quien tradujo numerosos textos, y admirador de pintores como Eugène Delacroix. Su ensayo El pintor de la vida moderna es fundamental para comprender su visión del artista como testigo de la fugacidad y el vértigo de la modernidad.En los últimos años sufrió de sífilis, adicciones y una profunda miseria económica. Su salud se deterioró drásticamente hasta que en 1866 quedó semiparalizado y con problemas del habla. Murió en París el 31 de agosto de 1867, a los 46 años.Baudelaire dejó un legado inmenso: su poesía abrió el camino hacia el simbolismo, el decadentismo y la poesía moderna, marcando a generaciones de escritores y convirtiéndolo en un verdadero “poeta maldito”.

Lorsque Les Fleurs du Mal paraissent en 1857, Charles Baudelaire ne s'attend sans doute pas à déclencher l'un des plus grands scandales littéraires du XIXᵉ siècle. Pourtant, quelques semaines à peine après sa publication, le recueil est poursuivi en justice pour outrage à la morale publique et aux bonnes mœurs. Mais pourquoi ce livre de poésie choque-t-il autant son époque ?D'abord, par ses thèmes. Baudelaire rompt brutalement avec la poésie romantique idéalisée. Il ose faire entrer dans la poésie des sujets jugés indignes : la sexualité, le désir, la prostitution, la déchéance physique, la mort, la pourriture, l'ennui profond qu'il appelle le spleen. Là où la poésie devait élever l'âme, Baudelaire montre la misère humaine, les corps fatigués, la tentation du vice. Pour la société bourgeoise du Second Empire, attachée à l'ordre moral, c'est inacceptable.Ensuite, par son traitement du mal. Le scandale ne vient pas seulement de ce que Baudelaire décrit, mais de la manière dont il le fait. Il ne condamne pas toujours clairement le vice : il le met en scène, parfois avec fascination, parfois avec beauté. Le simple fait de suggérer qu'on puisse trouver de la poésie dans le mal choque profondément les autorités. Pour ses juges, Baudelaire ne se contente pas de décrire l'immoralité : il la rend séduisante.Six poèmes sont particulièrement visés, notamment ceux consacrés à l'érotisme féminin et aux amours jugées déviantes. À l'époque, parler aussi directement du corps et du désir féminin est perçu comme une atteinte grave à la morale publique. Baudelaire est condamné à une amende, et ces poèmes sont interdits de publication en France pendant près d'un siècle.Le scandale tient aussi à la vision moderne de l'artiste que propose Baudelaire. Il refuse le rôle du poète moraliste ou édifiant. Il affirme que la poésie n'a pas à être utile ou morale, mais qu'elle doit dire le vrai, même lorsqu'il est dérangeant. Cette idée est révolutionnaire pour son temps.Enfin, Les Fleurs du Mal dérangent parce qu'elles montrent une société qui ne veut pas se regarder en face. Baudelaire parle de la ville, de la foule, de l'ennui moderne, du vide spirituel derrière les apparences respectables. En ce sens, le scandale révèle moins l'immoralité du poète que l'hypocrisie de son époque.Aujourd'hui considéré comme un chef-d'œuvre fondateur de la poésie moderne, Les Fleurs du Mal rappellent que ce qui choque un siècle peut devenir, pour le suivant, une œuvre essentielle.

Bouffons, fous, farceurs : aux origines des clowns Nous sommes en 1842, lorsque Charles Baudelaire assiste, pour la première fois à une représentation de pantomime anglaise aux théâtres des Variété à Paris, il est proprement stupéfait. Dans son ouvrage « Curiosités esthétiques », il écrira plus tard : « (…) Le Pierrot anglais arrivait comme la tempête, tombait comme un ballot, et quand il riait, son rire faisait trembler la salle ; ce rire ressemblait à un joyeux tonnerre. C'était un homme court et gros, ayant augmenté sa prestance par un costume chargé de rubans qui faisaient autour de sa jubilante personne l'office des plumes et du duvet autour des oiseaux ou de la fourrure autour des angoras. Par-dessus le farine de son visage, il avait collé crûment sans gradation, sans transition deux énormes plaques de rouge pur. La bouche était agrandie par une prolongation simulée des lèvres au moyen de deux bandes de carmin, de sorte que, quand il riait, la gueule avait l'air de courir jusqu'aux oreilles (...) Pour je ne sais quel méfait, Pierrot devait être finalement guillotiné (…) L'instrument était donc là dressé sur les planches françaises, fort étonnées de cette romantique nouveauté. Après avoir lutté et beuglé comme un bœuf qui flaire l'abattoir , Pierrot subissait enfin son destin. La tête se détachait du cou, une grosse tête blanche et rouge, et roulait avec bruit devant le trou du souffleur, montrant le disque saignant du cou, la vertèbre scindée, et tous les détails d'une viande pour boucherie récemment taillée pour l'étalage. Mais voilà que, subitement, le torse raccourci, mû par la monomanie irrésistible du vol, se dressait, escamotait victorieusement sa propre tête, comme un jambon ou une bouteille de vin et, bien plus avisé que le grand saint Denis, la fourrait dans sa poche ! » Pierrot, Arlequin farceur, bouffon, retournons aux origines des clowns… Pascal Jacob, historien des arts du cirque, auteur de « Clowns ! » ; éd.

Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849) fue un escritor, poeta, crítico literario y periodista estadounidense, considerado una de las figuras más influyentes del Romanticismo en su vertiente más oscura y del nacimiento del cuento moderno. Nacimiento: 19 de enero de 1809 en Boston, Estados Unidos. Hijo de actores itinerantes. Su padre abandonó el hogar y su madre murió de tuberculosis cuando Poe tenía apenas dos años. Fue acogido por el matrimonio Allan en Richmond (de allí su segundo nombre, aunque nunca fue adoptado legalmente). Estudió un tiempo en la Universidad de Virginia, pero problemas económicos y de juego le obligaron a abandonarla. Posteriormente estuvo en la Academia Militar de West Point, de donde también fue expulsado. Se dedicó a la escritura y al periodismo, trabajando en varias revistas literarias donde se destacó como crítico agudo y a menudo temido por su severidad. En 1836 se casó con su prima Virginia Clemm, que tenía 13 años. La enfermedad y posterior muerte de ella en 1847 marcaron profundamente su vida y su obra. Falleció en circunstancias misteriosas el 7 de octubre de 1849 en Baltimore, hallado delirante en la calle y vestido con ropas que no eran suyas. Las causas exactas siguen siendo debatidas (alcoholismo, rabia, enfermedades cerebrales o incluso conspiraciones políticas). Poe es célebre por su habilidad para crear atmósferas de terror psicológico, misterio y melancolía. También innovó en el género policial y de ciencia ficción.Cuentos de terror: La caída de la Casa Usher, El corazón delator, El gato negro, El barril de amontillado.Policiales: Los crímenes de la calle Morgue (considerado el primer relato detectivesco moderno, precursor de Sherlock Holmes).Poemas: El cuervo (su obra más famosa, símbolo de lo macabro y lo obsesivo), Annabel Lee, Lenore, El gusano vencedor.Crítica: Fue un crítico literario feroz, defendiendo la originalidad y la estética en la literatura. Inspiró a escritores como Charles Baudelaire (quien lo tradujo al francés), Stéphane Mallarmé, H. P. Lovecraft y Jorge Luis Borges.Se le atribuye haber sentado bases del cuento moderno y del relato detectivesco. Su estilo influyó en el simbolismo europeo y en la literatura gótica.

Las flores del mal de Charles Baudelaire es una obra maestra que redefine la poesía moderna, transformando el dolor, el deseo y la decadencia en un arte sublime. Su exploración de la dualidad humana, su lenguaje evocador y su desafío a las normas morales la convierten en un hito literario que sigue resonando en la literatura y la cultura contemporáneas. Baudelaire nos invita a mirar dentro de nosotros mismos, a enfrentar nuestros vicios y anhelos, y a encontrar bellezaen lo que otros condenan. Te invito a leer esta colección, que, como un jardín oscuro, florece con la intensidad de la vida y la sombra de la muerte."Crónicas Lunares di Sun" es un podcast cultural presentado por Irving Sun, que abarca una variedad de temas, desde la literatura y análisis de libros hasta discusiones sobre actualidad y personajes históricos.

Julián del Casal (José Julián Herculano del Casal y de la Lastra; Habana, 7 noviembre 1863 – 21 octubre 1893) fue un poeta, periodista y figura clave del Modernismo latinoamericano, especialmente en Cuba. Nace en La Habana en 1863. Su madre fallece cuando él tenía alrededor de 5 años, y su padre muere en 1885, privándolo de herencia y sumiéndolo en dificultades económicas y emocionalmente marcado. Cursa bachillerato en el Real Colegio de Belén (título en 1879) y estudia Derecho brevemente en la Universidad de La Habana antes de abandonarlos para dedicarse a la literatura. Trabaja como escribiente en la oficina del Ministerio de Hacienda, colabora con revistas como La Habana Elegante, y usa el seudónimo Hernani en algunos escritos. En 1888 viaja a España (llega a Madrid) con la intención de conocer París, pero regresa a Cuba en 1889 sin cumplir ese sueño. Obras principales:Hojas al viento (1890): Primera colección de poemas, influidos por el Parnasianismo francés y Charles Baudelaire. Nieve (1892): Incluye cinco secciones temáticas, reflejando un tono melancólico y esteticista. Bustos y rimas (1893, póstumo): Mezcla de prosa y poesía, publicada tras su muerte con ayuda de Enrique Hernández Miyares. Además, tradujo a Baudelaire al español y mantuvo correspondencia con figuras como Rubén Darío y el pintor Gustave Moreau. Es considerado uno de los precursores del Modernismo en la literatura hispanoamericana, junto a Rubén Darío, Manuel Gutiérrez Nájera y José Asunción Silva. Sus versos muestran una clara preferencia por lo artificial y esteticista, alejándose de la naturaleza y de los sentimientos sentimentales tradicionales. José Martí lo admiró, señalándolo como parte de una generación que buscaba “expresión artística y sincera” . Casal fallece a los 29 años de edad en La Habana, durante una sobremesa, tras reírse de un chiste. Este episodio desata una hemorragia grave por ruptura de un aneurisma, aunque algunos expertos también señalan que pudo tratase de una bronquitis tuberculosa.

1859 war sich Charles Baudelaire sicher, dass die «Kunst nichts anderes ist und sein kann als die genaue Wiedergabe der Natur». Er betont das, weil zu dieser Zeit eine neue Technik aufkommt: Die Fotografie bildet die Natur einfacher und genauer ab als jeder Künstler. Baudelaire spottet, die fotografische Industrie sei zur «Zuflucht aller gescheiterten Maler» geworden, der «Unbegabten und der Faulen». Die industrielle Bilderproduktion habe eine «allgemeine Überfütterung», eine «Verblendung und Verdummung» zur Folge. Tatsächlich schlug die Fotografie der Malerei ihre Aufgabe, die Welt abzubilden, aus der Hand. Die Kunstmaler reagierten darauf, indem sie nicht mehr das malten, was ihre Augen sahen, sondern das, was sie spürten und empfanden. So entstanden Impressionismus, Expressionismus und schliesslich die moderne, abstrakte Malerei. Heute stehen wir an einem ähnlichen Punkt: Die textgenerierende Künstliche Intelligenz erledigt, was früher nur Menschen konnten: Sie beschreibt, erklärt, argumentiert, fasst zusammen und formuliert auf Knopfdruck und in industriellem Massstab Texte. Welche Folgen hat das für das Schreiben? Wird ChatGPT jetzt zur «Zuflucht aller gescheiterten Autoren»? Muss sich das künstlerische Schreiben vom Transportieren von Informationen abwenden wie vor 150 Jahren die Malerei von der Wiedergabe der Natur? Wenn Maschinen besser Texte produzieren, was bleibt dem Schreiben?Matthias Zehnder ist Autor und Medienwissenschaftler in Basel.

A history of the dandy from below, from Beau Brummell and Baudelaire to Bowie and Bolan... and beyond. The historical figure of the dandy has commonly been described as an upper-class gentleman, often exemplified by well-known men such as Beau Brummell, Charles Baudelaire, Oscar Wilde, and Max Beerbohm. But there is a broader history to be told about the dandy - one that incorporates unknown men from the lower strata of society. The Dandy: A People's History of Sartorial Splendour (Oxford UP, 2025) constitutes the first ever history of those dandies who emanated from the less privileged layers of the populace - the lowly clerks, shop assistants, domestic servants, and labourers who increasingly during the modern age have emerged as style-conscious men about town. Peter Andersson shows that dandyism is far from just an elite phenomenon represented by famous poets and artists. He shows how dandyism as a popular youth subculture grew into an influential cultural movement, from the days of Beau Brummell in the early 19th century to the age of mods in the 1960s. A series of fascinating in-depth studies of the wide variety of dandy subcultures that have surfaced around the world in the last two centuries tell the story of how the shaping of fashions and the image of men became increasingly democratized, with the arbiters of taste increasingly coming from the other end of the social spectrum. Along the way, we encounter such long-forgotten groups as the mashers, the knuts, the Paris gandins and the Berlin transgender dandies, alongside more well-known but unexplored figures like the zoot suiter, the teddy boy, and the New Romantic. Above all, this is a story of how fundamental aspects of modern culture such as fashion, style, and conduct have been shaped from below just as much as from above. It is a story that shows how the problematic business of young men trying to find an identity is an enduring phenomenon - and one sadly often accompanied by innocent victims along the way. Peter K. Andersson is a historian and writer, with a PhD in History from Lund University in Sweden. He has been a visiting scholar at the universities of London, Oxford, and Bologna, and has written extensively on Victorian cultural history, urban history, and popular culture.

En este episodio exploramos la presencia enigmática y fascinante de los gatos en la literatura, esos animales que han acompañado a poetas, narradores y lectores desde tiempos remotos, convirtiéndose en símbolo de lo indomable, lo intuitivo, lo sagrado y lo oculto.Desde los versos oscuros de Charles Baudelaire, pasando por la "Oda al gato" de Pablo Neruda, los felinos literarios han sido retratados como criaturas misteriosas, independientes, casi divinas. En El libro de los gatos habilidosos del viejo Possum, T. S. Eliot los inmortaliza con humor e ingenio, mientras que otros autores los convierten en compañeros de lo fantástico, lo introspectivo y lo irracional.Hablamos de gatos que acechan en bibliotecas, que duermen sobre manuscritos, que se escabullen entre los márgenes de los cuentos, que encarnan metáforas del deseo, del misterio o de la libertad. Y también recordamos cómo estos animales han sido inspiración constante para escritores y escritoras de todas las épocas.

“They would take you around, introduce you to all of their contacts, translate for you, and help you put together the story,” says scholar-journalist Kira Brunner Don in this week's episode of The World in Time. “And I often felt like, you pay them, of course, a day rate, but there was this understanding that real news was made by American journalists who flew in and told you what was what. All of us were depending on journalists from the country, or writers from the country, who knew it far better than we did and really had the context and the sensibility. But there was this unspoken rule that they'll be biased. I really felt like I wanted to create something that instead focused on the actual voices of the people who live in the countries we're covering.” This week on the podcast Donovan Hohn hosts a two-part episode. First, he speaks with Kira Brunner Don, former executive editor of Lapham's Quarterly, about the making of our first issue, States of War, from Winter 2008, and about the magazine Brunner Don edits now, Stranger's Guide. In part two of this episode, Hohn speaks with Nathan Brown, translator of Verso's new dual-language edition of Charles Baudelaire's The Flowers of Evil, about the history of Baudelaire's magnum opus. Brown gives us a guided tour of “Recueillement,” the Baudelaire poem read at Lewis Lapham's memorial service, which Brown has translated anew for Lapham's Quarterly, under the title “Introspection.”

Con interventi di Giuseppe Artuffo, Carlo Prosperi e Giovanna Romanelli. A cura di Giovanna Romanelli. Concetto Fusillo si trasferisce giovanissimo da Lentini a Lecco, dove si dedica a tempo pieno all'attività artistica, in particolare alla pittura, alla scultura e all'incisione. Sulle memorie dell'isola nativa, ricche di luce e di colore per quanto segnate da paesaggi e ambienti recanti le stimmate dolorose della storia e della guerra, ha via via innestato immagini di altri luoghi, in una stratificazione analogica che ricorda i palinsesti. Una modalità, questa, che è quindi proseguita in Piemonte, a Mombaldone, dove l'artista vive dall'inizio del nuovo millennio. Qui, a seguito di fruttuosi incontri con amici e studiosi di storia, ha dato vita all'«archivio-pittura», con una serie di cicli compositivi ispirati ad atti notarili ed altri documenti di varia provenienza. La lettura di poeti e scrittori come Gabriele d'Annunzio, Cesare Pavese, Charles Baudelaire, Emily Dickinson, e di favolisti come Esopo, Charles Perrault, Giancarlo Passeroni e Luigi Capuana ha quindi stimolato ulteriori ricerche e sperimentazioni confluite in eleganti plaquettes e in mostre tenutesi ad Acqui, Cavatore e Mombaldo.Giovanna RomanelliLaureata in Lettere classiche presso l'Università Cattolica di Milano, ha conseguito la specializzazione in critica letteraria e artistica e ha collaborato al progetto IRIDE presso la medesima università. Ha insegnato Langue, culture et civilisation italienne presso la Sorbonne (Paris III), è stata membro del comitato scientifico della Fondazione Cesare Pavese e presidente della giuria del Premio Letterario che dello scrittore porta il nome.

Dans son essai consacré à Charles Baudelaire, Jean-Paul Sartre écrit que ce dernier avait eu la vie qu'il méritait, ce qui, quand on connaît la vie tragique du "poète maudit", ne sonne pas vraiment comme un compliment. Que voulait-il dire par là ? N'est-ce pas faire preuve de dureté, voire d'inhumanité que de considérer que nous avons la vie que nous méritons ?

Richard Wilbur was born in New York City on March 1, 1921 and studied at Amherst College before serving in the U.S. Army during World War II. He later attended Harvard University.Wilbur's first book of poems, The Beautiful Changes and Other Poems (Reynal & Hitchcock) was published in 1947. Since then, he has published several books of poems, including Anterooms: New Poems and Translations (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2010); Collected Poems, 1943–2004 (Harvest Books, 2004); Mayflies: New Poems and Translations (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2000); New and Collected Poems (Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1988), which won the Pulitzer Prize; The Mind-Reader: New Poems (Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1976); Walking to Sleep: New Poems and Translations (Harcourt, Brace & World, 1969); Advice to a Prophet and Other Poems (Harcourt, Brace & World, 1961); Things of This World (Harcourt, Brace & World, 1956), for which he received the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award; and Ceremony and Other Poems (Harcourt, Brace & World, 1950).Wilbur also published numerous translations of French plays—specifically those of the seventeenth century French dramatists Molière and Jean Racine—as well as poetry by Paul Valéry, François Villon, Charles Baudelaire, Anna Akhmatova, Joseph Brodsky, and others. Wilbur is also the author of several books for children and a few collections of prose pieces, and has edited such books as Poems of Shakespeare (Penguin Books, 1966) and The Complete Poems of Poe (Dell Publishing Company, 1959).About Wilbur's poems, one reviewer for the Washington Post said, “Throughout his career Wilbur has shown, within the compass of his classicism, enviable variety. His poems describe fountains and fire trucks, grasshoppers and toads, European cities and country pleasures. All of them are easy to read, while being suffused with an astonishing verbal music and a compacted thoughtfulness that invite sustained reflection.”Among Wilbur's honors are the Wallace Stevens Award, the Aiken Taylor Award for Modern American Poetry, the Frost Medal, the Gold Medal for Poetry from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, two Bollingen Prizes, the T. S. Eliot Award, the Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize, a Ford Foundation Award, two Guggenheim Fellowships, the Edna St. Vincent Millay Memorial Award, the Harriet Monroe Poetry Award, the National Arts Club medal of honor for literature, two PEN translation awards, the Prix de Rome Fellowship, and the Shelley Memorial Award. He was elected a chevalier of the Ordre des Palmes Académiques and is a former poet laureate of the United States.Wilbur served as a Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets from 1961 to 1995. He died on October 15, 2017 in Belmont, Massachusetts.-bio via Academy of American Poets Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe
