Artificial havens
It is the name with which a series of essays by Charles Baudelaire are known published separately on two different dates. The first part, with the title "On the Artificial Ideal, the Haschish," would appear in the contemporary Revue on September 30, 1858. This article will then become the "Poema del haschisch." In him Baudelaire recounts his experience with the hash. The second part would appear in the same magazine on September 15 and 30, 1860 under the title: "Enchantments and torture of an opium dining room," then becoming "An opium dining room." This second part deals with the recreation of De Quincey's books Confessions of an opium and Suspiria dining room of depth.
