The Decadents — How Beauty, Art, and Sin Destroyed a Generation | Strange History for Sleep

In the twilight of the 19th century, Europe fell in love with decadence. Artists, poets, and dreamers began to worship beauty above morality — chasing pleasure, art, and sensation in defiance of a society obsessed with order. They called themselves The Decadents. In this episode, we’ll explore how figures like Oscar Wilde and Joris-Karl Huysmans redefined art, rebellion, and identity in the fin de siècle world. Through literature, fashion, and philosophy, we’ll uncover how their pursuit of beauty challenged Victorian values — and how it ultimately consumed the very generation that created it. It’s not a story of scandal, but of expression — when art became both freedom and downfall. So dim the lights, close your eyes, and step into the candlelit world where elegance met its own ruin. #StrangeHistory #HistoryForSleep #HiddenHistory #ArtHistory #CulturalHistory #EducationalHistory
