Sorry for the editing mistakes. The shorts editor is a nightmare currently. I hope I figure out a better way to do that.

Think of the Decadent Movement when he speaks of this.

"In his lengthy introduction to Baudelaire in the front of the 1868 Les Fleurs du mal, Gautier at first rejects the application of the term decadent, as meant by the critic, but then works his way to an admission of decadence on Baudelaire's own terms: a preference for what is beautiful and what is exotic, an ease with surrendering to fantasy, and a maturity of skill with manipulating language."__Wiki
