Poe, Baudelaire, e a estética romântica do fragmento

This article aims at addressing the question of textual fragmentation in some works by Edgar Allan Poe and Charles Baudelaire as tributary to the aesthetics of the fragment as discussed by Friedrich Schlegel. The objective is to study how those authors would have created their own aesthetics of the fragment. For that purpose, the following works will be analyzed: Edgar Allan Poe’s Marginalia, A Chapter of Suggestions, Fifty Suggestions and Marginal Notes, as well as Charles Baudelaire’s Mon Coeur Mis à Nu.
