About the author
Robert Scholten is Emeritus Professor of Geology at The Pennsylvania State University. He was born and raised in The Netherlands and came to the United States in 1946 to obtain his doctorate degree at the University of Michigan in 1950. Research at Penn State took him to a variety of countries, where his early love of languages, especially French, facilitated his work. Upon his retirement in 1985, his growing fascination with Baudelaire's Les f1eurs du mal led to the ten-year project of translation that bore fruit in this volume.
