“Not to recognize the state of decadence which we are in would be the height of insensibility. Religion, customs, justice, everything decays.... Society comes apart under the corrosive action of a delinquent civilization.... We commit this paper to murderous innovations, to stupefying audacities, to incoherences ... at the furthest limit of compatibility with those archaic conventions known as ‘public morality’.... We will ... preach eternally the dogma of elixir, the quintessential word of triumphant décadisme.” Anatole Baju Salome Dancing before Herod 1870 Gustave MOREAU Salome
