In this magnificent -though, to its critics, somewhat dated- text, Stanton takes the time to grab a calculator, a dictionary of biographies, a calendar, and do some serious math.

    POETRY: A Magazine of Verse


    FIFTY YEARS SINCE BAUDELAIRE
    The American correspondent of the Mercure de France
    writes us apropos of the recent semi-centennial of the death
    of Charles Baudelaire:
    Perhaps it is not too late to send you two or three items concerning this literary event which has attracted wide attention in France.
    Of the several new editions of Let Fleurs du Mai which have
    appeared in Paris during the past year, that issued by M. Robert
    Helleu, the well-known art printer and publisher, seems to me the
    most attractive in every respect. It contains a short introduction
    by M. Andre Gide, one of the best Baudelaire authorities in France,
    and includes three striking portraits of the poet, one of which was
    drawn by Baudelaire himself.
    M. Helleu says: "In the midst of our more serious troubles, the
    semi-centennial of the death of Baudelaire is an event which has
    stirred up considerable heated discussion. Never have the significance and the influence of this poet been so preponderant as today.
    Like all true artists, Baudelaire is loved warmly or not understood ;
    a middle course, which some are trying to follow, is difficult to hold.
    In the presence of such a perfect work of art as Les Fleurs du Mai,
    which has been before the public for over a half-century, one must
    admire it or condemn it. Two opposing systems of aesthetics stand
    face to face, and those who have labored not to make a choice
    between them have made a choice in spite of themselves. Even
    the journalistic polemics which this anniversary have given rise to,
    show in themselves how alive today is the aristocratic figure of this
    admirable singer."
    On September 30th the Souvenir Litteraire, a Paris association of
    men of letters, whose raison d'etre is the celebration of literary
    events, commemorated Baudelaire. The poet, M. Robert Lestranee,
    who was one of the organizers of the ceremony, writes me in this
    connection : "As it is impossible to fete the author of Les Fleurs
    du Mai without also feting Edgar Poe, whose works he translated
    in such a masterly way, the occasion united in the same tribute of
    admiration the two great writers." Theodore Stanton
