  The 5 Organs Network of Chinese Medicine - Spleen/Stomach
The ideal milieu for their functioning is slight moistness for the stomach and near dryness for the spleen; that is the exact opposite of their natural tendencies, so the spleen and stomach must rely on each other to achieve a state of balance.
Since the spleen governs the flesh layer, all disorders such as a heavy and sore body, slow healing wounds, bed sores, emaciated arms and legs, the weak extremities of the chronically bed-ridden patient, and certain types of paralysis are results of spleen injury.
As a general rule, spleen disorders are usually of a deficient nature, requiring the tonification of central qi and the stimulation of the ascending movement of clear yang qi.

 SparkNotes: The Flowers of Evil: Spleen and Ideal, Part II
This ambivalence between the ideal and the spleen is also played out with the juxtaposition of the speaker's lover to a decaying corpse in "Carrion." While out walking with his lover, the speaker discovers rotting carrion infested with worms and maggots, but which releases pleasing music.
The section culminates with four poems entitled "Spleen." Depressed and "irritated at the entire town," the speaker laments the coming of death and his defunct love, as a ghost and the "meager, mangy body of a cat" evoke the haunting specter of his lover.
In the fourth and final "Spleen," the speaker is suffocated by the traditionally calming presence of the sky.

Spleen and Ideal is the sophomore album recorded by Dead Can Dance, released in 1985.

 Spleen And Ideal   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
...The terms 'spleen' and 'ideal' were taken from nineteenth century symbolist ideas.
Spleen - the ill natured and malevolent aspects of human nature such as envy, ill temper, spite and intolerance - was seen as inextricably linked to the notion of the ideal.
On one hand it tended to rob the ideal of its potentiality to exist; on the other hand it would shape and influence the ideal's very nature.

 Baudelaire on Spleen et Idéal   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
There are a number of poems which describe this experience and the struggle of the poet to overcome spleen and to produce art.
Although it is possible to see spleen as Baudelaire's own term for the familiar Romantic mal du siècle, it may be interpreted as having a political significance.
The feelings of helplessness, frustration, entrapment, inertia, disillusionment and alientation that define spleen may all be read as a response to the political events of 1848 and after.

 SparkNotes: The Flowers of Evil: Spleen and Ideal, Part I
In "Exotic Perfume," a woman's scent allows the speaker to evoke "A lazy island where nature produces / Singular tress and savory fruits." The image of the perfect woman is then an intermediary to an ideal world in "Invitation to a Voyage," where "scents of amber" and "oriental splendor" capture the speaker's imagination.
For example, in "Correspondences," the speaker evokes "amber, musk, benzoin and incense / That sing, transporting the soul and sense." He not only has the power to give voice to things that are silent but also relies on images of warmth, luxury, and pleasure to call upon and empower the reader's senses.
This first section is devoted exclusively to the "ideal," and Baudelaire relies on the abstraction of myth to convey the escape from reality and drift into nostalgia that the ideal represents.

 Spleen And Ideal - Wal-Mart
SPLEEN AND IDEAL is a profoundly different sounding record than its self-titled predecessor.
The tracks are all stately, muted affairs that actually managed to evoke the images that their titles suggest--the best example of this is the brittle, gorgeous "Circumradiant Dawn," which sounds like a hymn written to accompany Earth's very first sunrise.
SPLEEN AND IDEAL really hits its peak, however, with "Enigma of the Absolute." Brendan Perry's soft, deep voice resonates around each syllable, accompanied by sawed violins, a muted bass drum thumping in the background, and an exceptionally bright-sounding hurdy-gurdy.

 Charles Baudelaire - analysis
The first section, entitled "Spleen et idèal," opens with a series of poems that dramatize contrasting views of art, beauty, and the artist, who is depicted alternately as martyr, visionary, performer, pariah, and fool.
The focus then shifts to sexual and romantic love, with the first-person narrator of the poems oscillating between extremes of ecstasy ("idèal") and anguish ("spleen") as he attempts to find fulfillment through a succession of women whom it is possible, if simplistic, to identify with Jeanne Duval, Apollonie Sabatier, and Marie Daubrun.
Yet the attempt to find plenitude through love comes in the end to nothing, and "Spleen et idèal" ends with a sequence of anguished poems, several of them entitled "Spleen," in which the self is shown imprisoned within itself, with only the certainty of suffering and death before it.

 Baudelaire
The main obstacle that does not permit the realising the Ideal is the state of soul called Spleen which blocks, freezes the poet in a state of cataleptic paralysis stopping him from continuing his journey.
The tension toward the Ideal is shattered into a state of spleenetic depression, conscience begins to sway from mystic sensations to profound discomfort causing a state of stasis.
It is apparently the conclusion of the journey, but he hasn't really reached the Ideal he has so long yearned for.

Dead Can Dance's second album "Spleen And Ideal" was a big step forward both musically as well as the compositions.
They started to find what would later become their own trademark sound, which is quite pretentious and original.
This album isn't as good as their 1986 album "Spleen And Ideal", and it gets a little bit boring at times.
