Leda Tenorio da Motta et al., « Mask and truth in the disenchanted world. The Baudelairian Dandy according to Walter Benjamin and Roland Barthes », HAL SHS (Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société), ID : 10.23925/2318-9215.2021v8n1A1
This article focuses on the contradiction that seems to be established between the postulation of difference by the Baudelairian dandy and the demand for equality between men, in the society that emerges from the Great Revolution. To this end, it looks at the notes in the Baudelaire archive inserted in Walter Benjamin's Passages and Roland Barthes's semiology of fashion, at the point where it evokes dandyism, removing arguments from there to underline the renewing faculty of the contestation that the poet it does to the supposed political beauty of its time. They also serve to support this punctual approach relevant clippings from the history of fashion in Daniel Roche's Ancient Régime.
