Charles Baudelaire was a French poet who was the initiator of the Symbolism. He was born in 1821 in Paris. His infancy was complicated because he suffered the death of the father and had conflicts with the stepfather. In the youth he took a bohemian and rebellious life dedicated to the experimentation with the alcohol and the drugs.
He published his book of poems The Flowers of Evil in 1857, for which was taken to judgment for committing an outrage against the morality of the epoch, since some poems were erotic and were praising to Lucifer. He was condemned to pay a fine and to eliminate six poems of his book. He translated Edgar Allan Poe's stories, because Baudelaire admired him for his literary quality. Baudelaire died in 1867.
