Summary: "Études: Baudelaire, Paul Claudel, André Gide, Rameau, Bach, Franck, Wagner,…" by Jacques Rivière is a critical collection of essays written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the lives and contributions of prominent figures in French literature, music, and art, including renowned poets, playwrights, composers, and artists, exploring their artistic expressions and philosophical underpinnings.

Rivière offers insights into Baudelaire's poetic process, portraying him as a skilled craftsman who meticulously shapes and guides his verses, balancing emotion with structure. The text captures the essence of Baudelaire's work, emphasizing the interplay between suffering and creativity, as well as the poet’s search for beauty amid existential despair. Overall, the beginning establishes a thoughtful exploration of artistic integrity and the nuances of poetic expression, setting the tone for Rivière's analysis of other influential figures.
