Charles Baudelaire was a pioneering French poet, critic, and translator, best known for his collection 'Les Fleurs du mal' (The Flowers of Madness). He is considered a key figure in Symbolism and Modernism, often described as the "father of modern poetry." His work explored themes of urban life, sensuality, and the darker aspects of human experience with unprecedented frankness and aesthetic innovation.
