A new book by the famous historian and collector Vasily Molodyakov presents decadence as a cultural phenomenon on a global scale in the portraits of its characteristic figures. The life story of the great decadent three French (Charles Baudelaire, Paul Verlaine, Arthur Rimbaud) and three Russian (Konstantin Balmont, Valery Bryusov, Fyodor Sologub) — well known (all of them are books in a series "Life of remarkable people"), so the French is shown first of all through their perception in Russia, and Russian — through their perception of the French decadence. The gallery is complemented by Alexander Dobrolyubov — the most consistent of Russian decadents — and Alexander Emelyanov-Kohansky-an example of the commercialization of literary fashion through scandal. British decadence is represented not by the replicated Oscar Wilde, but by the less well-known in Russia, but more talented poet Algernon Swinburne, German-by the aesthete and author of "horror films" Hans Evers, American-by the one and only George Virek.
