Summary "Baudelaire et Sainte-Beuve" by Fernand Vandérem is a literary study written in the early 20th century. This book delves into the complex and often contradictory relationship between the poet Charles Baudelaire and the influential literary critic Sainte-Beuve. It reflects on the historical context of their interactions, illustrating the dynamics of admiration, neglect, and the contrasting perceptions of each other's value within the literary domain. The content of the book explores the evolution of Baudelaire's respect for Sainte-Beuve, despite the latter's persistent silence regarding Baudelaire's significant contributions to literature, particularly his work "Les Fleurs du Mal." Vandérem chronicles Baudelaire's attempts to garner recognition through his correspondence with Sainte-Beuve, as well as the latter's lukewarm responses that oscillated between praise and disregard. Throughout, the book emphasizes Baudelaire's unwavering admiration for Sainte-Beuve, even as the critic remained nonchalant towards Baudelaire's artistic aspirations. Ultimately, Vandérem presents a critical analysis of their relationship, drawing attention to the intricate balance of dependency and separation that defined their exchanges, and the implications this had on Baudelaire's legacy.
