  Charles-Pierre Baudelaire
When his Les fleurs du mal (The Flowers of Evil) appeared in 1857, the author, publisher, and printer were prosecuted and found guilty of obscenity and blasphemy.
Before 1949, when his work has been reevaluated, he was considered a drug-addict and a very vulgar author because of his poems, too futurist for the 19th century.
Many of his poems were influenced by his interest in les correspondances- synaesthesia.

 Baudelaire - MSN Encarta
His first important publications were two booklets of art criticism, Les salons (1845-1846), in which he discussed with acute insight the paintings and drawings of such contemporary French artists as Honoré Daumier, Édouard Manet, and Eugène Delacroix.
Although the elite of French literature came to his support, he was fined, and six poems in the volume were suppressed in subsequent editions.
His next work, Les paradis artificiels (1860), is a self-analytical book, based on his own experiences and inspired by Confessions of an English Opium-Eater by Thomas De Quincey.

This characteristic theme anticipates his famous prose poems, “Le Spleen de Paris,” in which drunkenness—as induced by wine, poetry, or virtue—is celebrated in extraordinary style.

Baudelaire was a slow and fastidious worker, and it was not until 1857 that he produced his first and most famous volume of poems, Les Fleurs du mal ("The Flowers of Evil").
Six of the poems were suppressed, but printed later as Les Épaves ("The Wrecks") (Brussels, 1866).
Another edition of Les fleurs du mal, without these poems, but with considerable additions, appeared in 1861.

 Poet of the Malign
That poet was Charles Baudelaire, author of Les Fleurs du Mal, Critique sur Thiophile Gautier, Les Paradis Artificiels, and translations of the works of Edgar A. Poe.
His poem of Le Voyage, in which irony, contempt, and audacity give the tone to his voice, expresses the sum and substance of life to a man who is entirely outside of Christian sentiment, and yet far from antique cheerfulness.
Les Paradis Artificiels, which is composed of two parts, ã one a translation of De Quincey's "Confession of an Opium- Eater," the other, his own Confessions of an Hashish-Eater, ãis remarkable for its terse and splendid diction, and thorough analysis of the ideas and sen-sations of a fine mind forced into activity by artificial means.

He took part with the revolutionaries in 1848, and for some years was interested in republican politics, but his permanent convictions were aristocratic and Catholic.
Six of the poems were suppressed, but printed later as Les Epaves ("The Wrecks") (Brussels, 1866).
Baudelaire is one of the most famous Decadent poets, but before the 20th century, when his work underwent considerable re-evaluation, he was generally considered by many to be merely a drug addict and a very vulgar author.

 Charles Pierre Baudelaire Biography
Baudelaire was expelled from the Lycée Louis le Grand in 1839 before receiving his baccalaureate degree, but he managed to obtain it later that year.
Baudelaire's significant early publications were two essays of art criticism (Le Salon de 1845 and Le Salon de 1846) and two volumes of translations from the tales of Poe in 1856 and 1857.
In his most famous writing on drugs, Les Paradis artificiels: opium et haschisch (1860), the opium essay is based on Thomas De Quincey's Confessions of an English Opium Eater but Le Poème du haschisch is Baudelaire's own.

 The Cambridge Companion to Baudelaire - Cambridge University Press
His translation of Le Spleen de Paris, entitled The Parisian Prowler, was awarded the Lewis Galantière Prize from the American Translators Association in 1991.
His great verse poem ‘Le Cygne’ is often considered to be the work that instigated Modernism, forging the disparate bric-a-brac of apparently chaotic contemporary existence into a means of setting the individual within both a cultural past and a physical present.
The translations used for Les Fleurs du Mal are those of James McGowan (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1993); those for Les Petits Poèmes en prose those of Rosemary Lloyd (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1991).

 NCAW Autumn 06 | Paige A. Conley on Bernard's Fumeuse de Haschisch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Jean-Jacques Luthi surmises that Les fellahs and Femmes puisant reveal Bernard's new interest in exploring themes related to the contemporary working class in and around Cairo, but the last canvas, or Les prostituées, may relate instead to a "theme of distraction" as Bernard came to spend more time in the cafés of old Cairo.
The remaining visual elements Bernard employed to portray his particular subject are clear ethnographic markers; they immediately and unmistakably position this robed, head-dressed, henna-stained, and obviously pierced subject within a particular social and ethic class.
Situated directly between the search for transcendence from the evils or discomforts of modernism exemplified by Baudelaire's Les paradis artificiels and Walter Benjamin's later essay entitled "Hashish in Marseilles," the narghile within Bernard's picture invoked all of these tensions.

Gautier's second article on hashish appeared in the Revue des Deux Mondes in 1846 and was entitled Le Club des Hachichins.
Although it contained relatively little concerning his experiences under the influence of hashish that he had not already described, it was to become the better known of his writings on the subject because of his description of the Hotel Lauzun and the members of the club that gathered there.

Aleister Crowley's boundless admiration for the works of Charles Baudelaire began when he was a Cambridge undergraduate in the late 1890s and continued throughout his life.
As Crowley had both poetic ability and a good knowledge of French, his interests centered around the translation of Baudelaire's poetry and prose, ranging from Les Fleurs du Mal to Les Paradis Artificiels.

Though Du vin is Baudelaire's own contribution on the subject, Les Paradis artificiels is his translation of Thomas De Quincey's Confession of an English Opium Eater (1821).
Alcoholism and drug abuse are only part of Baudelaire's broader view of the world of artificial paradises, which, in his poetic framework (his Fleurs du mal particularly), include any form of artifice used by humans to escape from their miserable condition.
These hallucinations, sometimes exquisite, sometimes disturbing, and the delusions of grandeur that often accompanied them, constitute the Paradis Artificiels, the gorgeous yet false worlds of ecstasy that eventually led to his ruin.
