„Aesthetics of ugliness“ in the poetry of Charles Baudelaire and its influence on poetry by A. Matoš, J. P. Kamov and T. Ujević

U završnom radu prikazana je estetika ružnoće Charlesa Baudelairea i njezin utjecaj na hrvatske pjesnike: Antuna Gustava Matoša, Janka Polića Kamova i Tina Ujevića. S obzirom na to da je rad komparatističke prirode, bilo je potrebno obraditi pjesništvo C. Baudelairea, književno vrijeme njegovog djelovanja i spomenutu estetiku kako bi što lakše razumjeli usporedbu s hrvatskim pjesnicima. Posebno je objašnjen ključni pojam „estetika ružnoće“. Književno kronološki je prvo obrađen Matoš, potom Kamov i na kraju Ujević. Kod sve trojice pjesnika navedene pjesme su uspoređene s pjesmama iz Baudelaireova opusa kako bi se potkrijepila postojeća formalna, stilska ili motivska podudarnost. Naglasak je bio na uporabi estetske ružnoće koja se kod svakog pjesnika realizirala na drukčiji način, što je i navedeno u zaključku.Charles Baudelaire’s “aesthetics of ugliness” and its influence on Croatian poets Antun Gustav Matoš, Janko Polić Kamov and Tin Ujević was examined in this thesis. Due to comparative nature of the thesis, it was necessary to analyze the poetry of C. Baudelaire, the literary period of his professional work and the mentioned aesthetics in order to easily understand the comparison with the Croatian poets. The key term “aesthetics of ugliness” was especially explained. Literally and chronologically speaking, Matoš was analyzed firstly, then Kamov and finally Ujević. The poems of all three poets were compared with those from Baudelaire's opus in order to support existing formal, stylistic or motive congruence. The emphasis was on the use of “aesthetic of ugliness” that manifested in a different way with every poet, as it is stated in the conclusion
