Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe - Episode 321 - DeQuincy, Baudelaire, and Poe - Part Three)I hope you listened to the previous episode that deals with Thomas De Quincy and his 1821 autobiographical work "Confessions of an English Opium-Eater.But before we go any further, I wan to try and clear something up. An opium-eater is not actually someone who eats opium, but rather a person who uses opium as a recreational drug or an opium addict. The term "opium-eater" was popularized by Thomas De Quincey in his work "Confessions of an English Opium-Eater”. In reality, De Quincey consumed opium in the form of laudanum, which is a tincture of opium dissolved in alcohol. This liquid preparation was widely used in the 19th century to treat various ailments and was easily available without a prescription. What could possibly go wrong?Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Send us a textWelcome to Celebrate Poe  - Episode 320 -  DeQuincy, Baudelaire, and Poe - Part TwoWhen I started this podcast, my plans are to delve more into Charles Baudelaire, but I ran into something that I did not expect.  Oh sure, there was his great collection known as Flowers of Evil and his classic and highly influential translation of Poe's works.  And I began reading a book about the controversial topic of the use of opium by Baudelaire - but I soon found that much of Baudelaire's interests were centered around a writer known as Thomas De Quincey.  Baudelaire's intended to translate Thomas De Quincey's Confession of an English Opium Eater.  So  And in a strange way, I found that reading about Thomas De Quincey helped me understand Baudelaire much better, and gain insights into the personal and creative challenges that Baudelaire faced as someone addicted to an opium. Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

Baudelaire wrote extensively about his experiences with opium and other drugs in his book (Artificial Paradises), published in 1860.This episode is the first in a series of podcasts that examine the opium use of Baudelaire, De Quincey, and Poe.Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Poe.

The 25th Louisiana Railroad Festival in DeQuincy, Louisiana host this week's American Passenger Rail Heritage Foundation's Let's Talk Trains program.  The City of DeQuincy which observed the centennial of its incorporation in 2003, owes its existence to the railroads. The original townsite was laid out in 1896 and 1897 when the main line of the Kansas City Pittsburgh and Gulf Railroad reached here. Over the years the railroad -- the Kansas City Southern and Union Pacific Railroads -- have provided employment for several generations of DeQuincy residents and have been a mainstay of the local economy. Before the coming of the Interstate system and better roads, DeQuincy was the hub for railroad travel, with several east-west and north-south passenger trains coming through each day. The passenger trains are gone now, but the city is still important in the railroad freight industry and continues to be a “railroad town.” We invite everyone to come and help us celebrate our heritage and traditions as a railroad town; visit our beautiful Railroad Museum which was built in 1923 as the Kansas City Southern Depot, and which is recognized as one of the most attractive restored depots in the nation.
