Baudelaire and the Second Republic is the first fully comprehensive
study of Baudelaire's actions, reactions, and writings from the
Revolution of February 1848 to the Bonapartist coup d'etat of
December 1851. The picture of Baudelaire that emerges from the
biographical, textual and contextual materials discussed, is of a
consistent radical republican. He is shown to have been close in
his views first to Blanqui and then, after the failure of the
insurrection of June 1848, to Proudhon and to the democ-soc party
that constituted the main resistance to Bonapartism during what
remained of the Second Republic. Baudelaire was close to the
popular political culture of mid-nineteenth-century France and drew
upon a reservoir of popular themes and images - notably the image
of wine - in expressing his commitment to the cause of radical
republicanism. A book which traces in detail the links between
literary texts and socio-political contexts, this will appeal both
to students of Baudelaire and of mid-1800s French politics and
society.
