Summary "L'élite: écrivains, orateurs sacrés, peintres, sculpteurs" by Georges Rodenbach is a literary critique written in the late 19th century. The work delves into the contributions of various key figures in art and literature, examining the legacies of renowned writers and artists through a lens of critical appreciation and analysis. The initial focus centers on the poetic genius of Charles Baudelaire, highlighting the complex and often misunderstood nature of his work, which Rodenbach frames as both deeply Catholic and reflective of modern existential struggles. At the start of the text, Rodenbach introduces Baudelaire by discussing his contentious position in literary circles and how his innovative yet troubled genius has often been overlooked. He outlines the juxtaposition of Baudelaire's religious themes with his portrayal of modern decadence, illustrating how the poet grapples with profound spiritual questions against the backdrop of a rapidly changing world. Through evocative language, Rodenbach attempts to elucidate the intricacies of Baudelaire's work, positioning the poet not as a mere outlier in literary history but as a significant figure whose profound insights offer a unique critique of contemporary society.
