L'édition définitive des "Fleurs du Mal" a été publiée en 1868, après la mort de Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867). Les premiers recueils furent mal accueillis par la critique. Seuls quelques-uns, dont son ami Barbey d'Aurevilly, défendent la poésie de Charles Baudelaire. Le 5 juillet 1857 parait un violent article du Figaro, qui tout à la fois assure une grande notoriété au poète et le conduit devant les tribunaux. En août 1857, Baudelaire est condamné pour "offense à la morale publique, la morale religieuse et aux bonnes mœurs".

"La legende de Saint Julien l'Hospitalier" est avant tout un conte, conçu pour le plaisir d'être dit et entendu ; un récit dans lequel le héros parvient, à travers une série d'épreuves, à un but qui semblait inaccessible. Gustave Flaubert rédige cette "petite bêtise moyenâgeuse" en1875. Il y a, chez Flaubert, l'ambition de donner à son écriture le poids des choses : son texte doit rendre leur vérité. Pour l'atteindre, il recherche l'expression absolue, d'où sa réputation de besogneux : "Ce souci de la beauté extérieure que vous me reprochez est pour moi une méthode. Quand je découvre une mauvaise assonance ou une répétition dans une de mes phrases, je suis sûr que je patauge dans le faux. À force de chercher, je trouve l'expression juste, qui était la seule et qui est, en même temps, l'harmonieuse".

Flaubert reprend ici la légende de Julien l'Hospitalier en un conte flamboyant où le sang et la violence le disputent au mystique de la rédemption...

Paris is firing all its ammunition into the August night. Against a vast backdrop of water and stone, on both sides of a river awash with history, freedom’s barricades are once again being erected. Once again justice must be redeemed with men’s blood. Albert Camus (1913-1960) wrote these words in August 1944, as Paris was being liberated from German occupation. Although best known for his novels including The Stranger and The Plague, it was his vivid descriptions of the horrors of the occupation and his passionate defense of freedom that in fact launched his public fame.
