Generally speaking, the evaluation of Baudelaire and his work "Les Fleurs du Mal" is often mixed, but as time goes by, he has received more affirmation.
Secondly, Louis Aragon believed that "no poet can evoke more intense emotions in people than Baudelaire." Hugo said that his poetry was "fiery and sparkling, like a galaxy of stars.".
In Baudelaire's works, the ugly phenomena of the big city are laid bare. The scenery of Paris is so dark and mysterious, filled with abandoned poor, blind people, prostitutes, and even unsightly corpses lying on the streets.
From the perspective of poetry aesthetics, Baudelaire's pioneering discovery of the vast artistic realm of "ugliness appreciation" undoubtedly holds special significance.
Many later poets discovered the most essential characteristics of modern human existence from these lines, and thus Baudelaire is also known as the originator of "modernist" poetry.
