Benjamin highlights the unique and visionary character of Charles Baudelaire’s poetry, analyzing poems from The Flowers of Evil and also from The Parisian Prowler to illustrate what would be the apex of his mission: “the destruction of the aura in the experience of shock,” which would be the price of the sensation of modernity earned by the poet.

O fenômeno das massas das grandes cidades também é examinado com cuidado pelo autor, que localiza a figura do “choque” no âmago da obra de Baudelaire, partindo daí para diagnosticar o declínio da “aura” em sua poesia. Benjamin destaca o caráter único e visionário da poesia de Charles Baudelaire, analisando poemas de As flores do mal e também de Pequenos poemas em prosa para ilustrar o que viria a ser o ápice de sua missão: “a destruição da aura na vivência do choque”, a qual seria o preço da sensação da modernidade conquistada pelo poeta. O objetivo deste artigo é resgatar e atualizar a leitura que Walter Benjamin faz da obra de Charles Baudelaire, além de estabelecer relações entre o empreendimento crítico-literário do filósofo e algumas leituras mais contemporâneas sobre a emergência da modernidade, da qual o poeta francês foi, além de testemunha, sujeito determinante.Priscila Rossinetti Rufinoni2022-01-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/polemos/article/view/3875310.26512/pl.v10i20.38753PÓLEMOS – Revista de Estudantes de Filosofia da Universidade de Brasília; v. 10 n. 20 (2021); 10 - 322238-76922238-769210.26512/pl.v10i20reponame:Pólemos (Brasília)instname:Universidade de Brasília (UnB)instacron:UNBporhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/polemos/article/view/38753/32213Copyright (c) 2021 PÓLEMOS – Revista de Estudantes de Filosofia da Universidade de Brasíliainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLentino Messerschmidt, Marcos2022-01-06T22:24:09Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/38753Revistahttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/polemos/PUBhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/polemos/oaiperiodicos.bce@unb.br | polemosunb@gmail.com2238-76922238-7692opendoar:2022-01-06T22:24:09Pólemos (Brasília) - Universidade de Brasília (UnB)false
