Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Writings of Maurice Maeterlinck This is not a man who would chatter himself away, ' not even to Mr Frank Harris, who found him aggressive (and no wonder either if the Englishman said by word of mouth what he says in print, namely that The Treasure of the Humble was written at length after The Life of the Bee, M onna Vanna, and the translation of Mac beth The fact is, there is very little printed matter easily available on the biography proper of Maeterlinck.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maurice Maeterlinck Poet and Philosopher Which of us is there who would not just now do his little best for the glory and honour, as well as for the material well-being, of Belgium, heroic in her struggle against the overwhelming onslaught and tyrannic oppression of a cruel foe, great in strength but not in soul? The gallantry and magnificently united front of what used to be "little" Belgium has shown Germany what inspiration a great soul can put into a small body. Alas, that we have not been able to save Belgium from her bitter fate! Our part now is to act so that the bitterest consequences, annexation and continued domination by our joint enemy, may not also fall to her lot. She has preserved her soul from the depths of the deadly conflict - may we not help to disseminate her spirit, to spread her teaching far and wide, to create and stimulate the desire among all English speaking peoples, in every quarter of the globe, the wish to read, learn, and inwardly digest the works of those who bear great names in her literature? If this essay should rouse or encourage the desire to study the noble works of Maeterlinck at first hand (and that is the only way in which really to appreciate him), it would have amply accomplished its task.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maurice Maeterlinck Massacre of the Innocents and some of the poems collected in Serres Chaudes, and is otherwise unforgotten for its part in the history of symbolism. The'law-student returned to Ghent after little more than six months and began to practise at the Bar. But Rodenbach had introduced him to La fame Belgique, and he had contributed more poems to it. The year 1889 saw inseparable events - the publication of Maeterlinck's poems, Serres Chaudes, and his farewell to the Bar. Madame Maeterlinck mentions a very accurate mind and a special gift of practical good sense among his qualifications for the legal profession. The en thusiastic Gerard Harry says that he lost with triumphant ease the first and last cases in which he pleaded, and gives as one reason the fact that his voice was impracticably harsh and thin, and as another his excessive shyness and solitary, taciturn habits of meditation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maurice Polydore Marie Bernard Maeterlinck was born at Ghent on the 29th of August, 1862. It is known that his family was settled at Renaix in East Flanders as early as the fourteenth century; and the Maeterlincks are mentioned as burghers of Ghent in the annals of Flanders. The name is said to be derived from the Flemish word "maet" (Dutch "maat"), "measure," and is interpreted as "the man who measures out: distributor." In harmony with this interpretation the story goes that one of the poet's ancestors was mayor of his village during a year of famine, and that he in that capacity distributed corn among the poor. Maeterlinck's father was a notary by profession; being in comfortable circumstances, however, he did not practise, but lived in a country villa at Oostacker, near Ghent, on the banks of the broad canal which joins Ghent to the Scheldt at the Dutch town of Terneuzen. Here through the paternal garden the sea-going ships seemed to glide, "spreading their majestic shadows over the avenues filled with roses and bees."

This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of Maurice Maeterlinck and Other Sketches of Foreign Writers It was not till he wrote the series of essays called Le Tresor des Humbles that we could any of us understand M. Maeterlinck. In his earlier moods he seemed to be trying to copy the Elizabethan drama, especially in its sugges tions of vague horror and crude, soul-subduing crime. As a matter of fact, the Belgian writer translated into French one of the most charac teristic of John Ford's plays; another of the Belgian school reproduced Webster's Duchess of Malfi and the whole of Princess Maleine is a pale and ineffective version of what Shake speare achieved so triumphantly in Hamlet and Macbeth. But though the attractiveness of the supernatural always remained as an over powering interest for our author, he ceased to care for the crude and the morbid forms of tragedy.

Book excerpt: Maurice Polydore Marie Bernard Maeterlinck was a Belgian playwright, poet, and essayist who was Flemish but wrote in French. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1911 "in appreciation of his many-sided literary activities, and especially of his dramatic works, which are distinguished by a wealth of imagination and by a poetic fancy, which reveals, sometimes in the guise of a fairy tale, a deep inspiration, while in a mysterious way they appeal to the readers' own feelings and stimulate their imaginations". The main themes in his work are death and the meaning of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maurice Maeterlinck a Study The value of Maurice Maeterlinck is much more in the fact of his aliveness than in the direct force of his originality. He senses life in every outward detail, and throws away the husk of physical experience as soon as he has translated consciousness into conscience, and matter into spirit. In his observation and in his later expression of opinion, he is the philosopher of change, but even though his position may be transitory, he is in search of the constant factors of life. He looks outward from within, he looks downward from above. He is aloof, despite the fact that he touches humanity at all points.

Download or read book The Life of the Bee written by Maurice Maeterlinck and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life of the Bee By Maurice Maeterlinck One of the most curious of books that have appeared in many months is "The Life of the Bee," by Maurice Maeterlinck. From one point of view it is a nature book--a conscientious and intimate study of bee life, showing not only diligent reading, but dose personal observation. It is all this, but it is also a great deal more. Maeterlinck is one of those rarely gifted minds who cannot treat even of commonplace things without striking out some new flash of light from them; while with a subject like that of the bee, with all the interest of its complex social life, the unfathomed questions of what these little creatures know and think and feel, the delicate hair line of division between reason and instinct, Maeterlinck has a theme from which he has developed a sort of prose poem full of dreamy yet subtle philosophy of life and life's mysteries. Translated by Alfred Sutro, 1914. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maurice Maeterlinck, Vol. 5: A Critical Study Some twenty or more years ago, in 1889, Maurice Maeterlinck entered upon his public literary career with the small volume of lyrics entitled Serres Chaudes and the drama of La Princesse Maleine, to be followed by some fifteen plays and dramatic scenes. Le Tresor des Humbles, appearing in 1896, in like manner preluded the series of volumes which comprise, up to the present day, the sum total of his philosophical treatises, ethical essays, and other prose writings. Poet-dramatist and transcendental essayist, Maeterlinck has elected to present his art and his thought in the two distinct forms dictated by the trend of his literary genius. But if it is inevitable that a critical appreciation of his works should deal separately with these diverse modes of expression, it is also necessary to bear in mind that the poet-dramatist never ceases to be a philosophic moralist, that the transcendental essayist never ceases to be a poet.
