Packet H: Tossup 18

A work promoting this movement includes a mock drama in which “Erato” defends this movement against the detractor Theodore de Banville. “The Peacocks” author (-5[1])Gustave Kahn (-5[1])co-founded a periodical for publishing works from this movement. A foundational poem for this movement (10[1])opens by describing nature as a temple with “living (-5[1])pillars” (10[4])and (10[1])man (-5[1])wandering (-5[1])a forest (10[1])of this movement’s central (10[2]-5[1])objects. (-5[1])The influence (-5[1])of synesthesia (10[1])on this movement is reflected (-5[1])in a poem (10[1])in which each (10[2])vowel (-5[1])is associated (10[2])with (10[2])a (10[1])specific (10[7])color. (10[8]-5[1])Jean (10[1])Moréas’s (10[1])(“mo-ray-OSS’s”) manifesto for this movement (-5[2])champions a poet (10[1]-5[1])who opened a collection with an address to the “hypocrite” (10[2])reader. (10[4])For 10 points, (10[1])the Decadent movement is contrasted with what French movement that grew from the publication of (10[1])Les Fleurs du (10[1])Mal? ■END■ (10[14]0[18])
