« Le dandysme, qui est une institution en dehors des lois, a des lois rigoureuses auxquelles sont strictement soumis tous ses sujets, quelles que soient d’ailleurs la fougue et l’indépendance de leur caractère. » Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867), maître de l’élégance et de la provocation, érige le dandysme en philosophie de vie. Ses poèmes, ses critiques d’art et ses écrits intimes révèlent une quête perpétuelle du beau — jusque dans l’abjection —, défiant la vulgarité de l’époque.

ElevationAbove the lakes, above the vales, The mountains and the woods, the clouds, the seas, Beyond the sun, beyond the ether, Beyond the confines of the starry spheres,My soul, you move with ease, And like a strong swimmer in rapture in the wave You wing your way blithely through boundless space With virile joy unspeakable.

Coffret de deux volumes vendus ensembleCette correspondance est avant tout un drame dont Baudelaire est à la fois l'auteur, le metteur en scène et l'acteur. C'est pourquoi sans doute elle n'a jamais été reléguée par les tenants de l'œuvre en soi au rang des attirails biographiques. Est-ce d'ailleurs bien une correspondance, au sens que l'on attribue d'ordinaire à ce mot ?
