Dream: a Brief Comparative Study of Nerval and Keats Safoora Torkladani, Pyeaam Abbasi University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran E-Mail: [email protected]
International Letters of Social and Humanistic Sciences Online: 2015-07-01 ISSN: 2300-2697, Vol. 55, pp 140-146 doi:10.18052/www.scipress.com/ILSHS.55.140 CC BY 4.0. Published by SciPress Ltd, Switzerland, 2015 Dream: A Brief Comparative Study of Nerval and Keats Safoora Torkladani, Pyeaam Abbasi University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran E-mail: [email protected] Keywords: Nerval; Keats; Dream; Reality; Poetry ABSTRACT. Dreams, as reflections of the subconscious, seem to be an essential ingredient of Nerval’s and Keats’s poetry. The two poets show that poetry is an apt place to explore the blurred boundary and continuity between dream and reality. This idea seems to be in close relation with both poets’ search for identity and inner self. The female figure that, also, appears in many of the two poets’ poms is closely related with the poets’ obsession with dreams in which they seek to ward off depression and find proof for imagination. Nerval and Keats use poetry to understand their dreams and give them shape and meaning. They create mysterious worlds in their poems where dreams and reality are intermingled. In both Nerval and Keats, the significance of dream lies in the fact that it plays the role of a safe haven for the poet who is afraid of the unstable reality and identity. Both seem to seek refuge in dream where a stable identity and a permanent beauty may be found. 1. INTRODUCTION Gérard de Nerval grew up with his uncle in Valois, the city that makes up the setting for most of his writings, including Les Filles du Feu. -

Baudelairism and Modernity in the Poetry of Scapigliatura Alessandro Cabiati PhD The University of Edinburgh 2017 Abstract In the 1860s, the Italian Scapigliati (literally ‘the dishevelled ones’) promoted a systematic refusal of traditional literary and artistic values, coupled with a nonconformist and rebellious lifestyle. The Scapigliatura movement is still under- studied, particularly outside Italy, but it plays a pivotal role in the transition from Italian Romanticism to Decadentism. One of the authors most frequently associated with Scapigliatura in terms of literary influence as well as eccentric Bohemianism is the French poet Charles Baudelaire, certainly amongst the most innovative and pioneering figures of nineteenth-century European poetry. Studies on the relationship between Baudelaire and Scapigliatura have commonly taken into account only the most explicit and superficial Baudelairian aspects of Scapigliatura’s poetry, such as the notion of aesthetic revolt against a conventional idea of beauty, which led the Scapigliati to introduce into their poetry morally shocking and unconventional subjects. -

Baudelaire and the Rival of Nature: the Conflict Between Art and Nature in French Landscape Painting
BAUDELAIRE AND THE RIVAL OF NATURE: THE CONFLICT BETWEEN ART AND NATURE IN FRENCH LANDSCAPE PAINTING _______________________________________________________________ A Thesis Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS _______________________________________________________________ By Juliette Pegram January 2012 _______________________ Dr. Therese Dolan, Thesis Advisor, Department of Art History Tyler School of Art, Temple University ABSTRACT The rise of landscape painting as a dominant genre in nineteenth century France was closely tied to the ongoing debate between Art and Nature. This conflict permeates the writings of poet and art critic Charles Baudelaire. While Baudelaire scholarship has maintained the idea of the poet as a strict anti-naturalist and proponent of the artificial, this paper offers a revision of Baudelaire‟s relation to nature through a close reading across his critical and poetic texts. The Salon reviews of 1845, 1846 and 1859, as well as Baudelaire‟s Journaux Intimes, Les Paradis Artificiels and two poems that deal directly with the subject of landscape, are examined. The aim of this essay is to provoke new insights into the poet‟s complex attitudes toward nature and the art of landscape painting in France during the middle years of the nineteenth century. i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to Dr. Therese Dolan for guiding me back to the subject and writings of Charles Baudelaire. Her patience and words of encouragement about the writing process were invaluable, and I am fortunate to have had the opportunity for such a wonderful writer to edit and review my work. I would like to thank Dr. -

El Mito De Baudelaire En Emilio Praga: Interferencias Poéticas
EL MITO DE BAUDELAIRE EN EMILIO PRAGA: INTERFERENCIAS POÉTICAS Alfredo Luzi Universidad de Macerata, Italia [email protected] Resumen Este artículo analiza el uso que hace el poeta italiano Emilio Praga (1839-1875) del modelo ofrecido por la poesía del simbolista francés Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867). Sitúa la obra de Praga dentro del contexto histórico de los grandes cambios en el plano económico y comercial que precedieron la Primera Guerra Mundial y dentro de la corriente artística de la scapigliatura y propone que, para Praga, Baudelaire ofrece una alternativa a la vieja retórica de lo bueno y lo bello y una posibilidad de renovación estilística que contribuye a abrir la literatura italiana hacia perspectivas europeas.

Gérard De Nerval En 1855
17 Gérard de Nerval en 1855 Hisashi MIZUNO La mort appelle la commémoration ; d’autant plus si c’est une mort accidentelle ou tragique, comme ce fut le cas de celle de Gérard de Nerval. Dans une odelette, intitulée «La Grand’mère», le poète avait décrit ainsi sa réaction envers la mort : «quand on l’enterra (la grand-mère), / Pa- rents, amis, tout le monde pleura / D’une douleur bien vraie et bien amère ! / Pour moi, j’errais dans la maison surpris / Plus que chagrin [. .]1». Après sa propre mort survenue au petit matin du 26 janvier 1855, tout le monde pleura sans doute d’une tristesse plus ou moins sincère en pensant au bon Gérard, et chacun exprima ses souvenirs d’une manière ou d’une autre2, à tel point que Hippolypte Babou note le 17 février : «Un événe- ment déplorable, la mort de M. Gérard de Nerval, défraye encore la verve routinière des faiseurs de feuilletons. Ecoutez babiller toutes les plumes indiscrètes. Le premier venu broche sur ce thème, et s’écrie dans son pa- tois : «Gérard était mon ami intime.» Puis viennent par ricochet une multi- tude d’anecdotes où l’ami de Gérard a toujours le beau rôle. Il y a des va- nités si intraitables qu’elles n’hésitent même pas à prendre une tombe pour marche-pied. Chaque fois qu’une intelligence brillante s’éteint, dans ce monde si tourmenté de la littérature et des arts, rien ne peut empêcher le ──────────── 1 Gérard de Nerval, Œuvres complètes, t.

1 Introduction the Empire at the End of Decadence the Social, Scientific
1 Introduction The Empire at the End of Decadence The social, scientific and industrial revolutions of the later nineteenth century brought with them a ferment of new artistic visions. An emphasis on scientific determinism and the depiction of reality led to the aesthetic movement known as Naturalism, which allowed the human condition to be presented in detached, objective terms, often with a minimum of moral judgment. This in turn was counterbalanced by more metaphorical modes of expression such as Symbolism, Decadence, and Aestheticism, which flourished in both literature and the visual arts, and tended to exalt subjective individual experience at the expense of straightforward depictions of nature and reality. Dismay at the fast pace of social and technological innovation led many adherents of these less realistic movements to reject faith in the new beginnings proclaimed by the voices of progress, and instead focus in an almost perverse way on the imagery of degeneration, artificiality, and ruin. By the 1890s, the provocative, anti-traditionalist attitudes of those writers and artists who had come to be called Decadents, combined with their often bizarre personal habits, had inspired the name for an age that was fascinated by the contemplation of both sumptuousness and demise: the fin de siècle. These artistic and social visions of degeneration and death derived from a variety of inspirations. The pessimistic philosophy of Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860), who had envisioned human existence as a miserable round of unsatisfied needs and desires that might only be alleviated by the contemplation of works of art or the annihilation of the self, contributed much to fin-de-siècle consciousness.1 Another significant influence may be found in the numerous writers and artists whose works served to link the themes and imagery of Romanticism 2 with those of Symbolism and the fin-de-siècle evocations of Decadence, such as William Blake, Edgar Allen Poe, Eugène Delacroix, the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, Charles Baudelaire, and Gustave Flaubert. -
