FRE1905H: Baudelaire and Symbolist Modernity (1850-1900) / Baudelaire et la modernité symboliste (1850-1900)

In this seminar, we intend to investigate Baudelaire's poetic and critical writings and gauge their significant impact on the literature of the second half of the 19th century. We will examine how these writings shape a common vision of poetry in Mallarmé, Verlaine, Rimbaud, and among other representatives of poetic modernity, despite their various differences.

Students from other graduate programs may submit assignments in English with approval of the instructor.

Traditional Land Acknowledgement

We wish to acknowledge this land on which the University of Toronto operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
