This study of Baudelaire's writings applies the principles of
schizoanalysis to literary history and cultural studies. By
resituating psychoanalysis in its socio-economic and cultural
context, this framework provides an illuminating approach to the
poetry and art criticism of the foremost French modernist.
Professor Holland's book draws upon and transforms virtually the
entire spectrum of recent Baudelaire scholarship and demonstrates
the impact of the capitalist market and its attendant
authoritarianism (as well as Baudelaire's much-discussed family
circumstances) on the psychology and poetics of the writer, who
abandoned his romantic idealism in favour of a modernist cynicism
that has characterized modern culture ever since.
