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."

Download or read book Hothouses written by Maurice Maeterlinck and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On May 31, 1889, a young Belgian lawyer from a wealthy bourgeois family in Ghent published a book of 33 poems in 155 copies. Maurice Maeterlinck's legal career was floundering but his road to literary greatness had begun. Long overshadowed by the plays that later won him the Nobel Prize, Serres chaudes (Hothouses) nonetheless came to be widely regarded as one of the cornerstones of literary Modernism after Baudelaire. While Max Nordau soon seized upon Maeterlinck's--tumult of images--as symptomatic of a pervasive social malaise, decades later Antonin Artaud pronounced, "Maeterlinck was the first to introduce the multiple riches of the subconscious into literature." Richard Howard's translation of this quietly radical work is the first to be published in nearly a century, and the first to accurately convey Maeterlinck's elusive visionary force. The poems, some of them in free verse (new to Belgium at the time), combine the decadent symbolism and the language of dislocation that Maeterlinck later perfected in his dramas. Hothouses reflects the influence not only of French poets including Verlaine and Rimbaud, but also of Whitman. As for the title, the author said it was "a natural choice, Ghent . . . abounding in greenhouses." The poems, whose English translations appear opposite the French originals, are accompanied by reproductions of seven woodcuts by Georges Minne that appeared in the original volume, and by an early prose text by Maeterlinck imaginatively describing a painting by the sixteenth-century Flemish artist Pieter Brueghel. A feat of daring power extraordinarily immediate and inventive, Hothouses will appeal to all lovers of poetry, and in particular to those interested in Modernism. Maeterlinck's enormous fame may have faded, but twentieth-century writers such as Beckett are still our masters who testify to its undying influence.

Download or read book Wisdom and Destiny written by Maurice Maeterlinck and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wisdom and Destiny is a philosophical essay by Maurice Maeterlinck. Maeterlinck was a playwright, poet and essayist who focused on the grand themes of life and death. Excerpt: "After all, what is a humble life? It is thus we choose to term the life that ignores itself, that drains itself dry in the place of its birth—a life whose feelings and thoughts, whose desires and passions, entwine themselves around the most insignificant things. But it suffices to look at a life for that life to seem great. A life in itself can be neither great nor small; the largeness is all in the eye that surveys it; and an existence that all men hold to be lofty and vast, is one that has long been accustomed to look loftily on itself from within."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1910, Maurice Maeterlinck's THE BURIED TEMPLE is written with the author's characteristic care and thoughtfulness. A series of insightful five essays, it displays unique insights and graceful perception into the life of the spirit. Essays included in this collection are Mystery of Justice; Evolution of Mystery; Kingdom of Matter and The Past; Luck. Maeterlinck's writing is characterized by clear and simple expression with a subtle suggestion rather than a direct expression of ideas and emotions. THE BURIED TEMPLE is ideal for readers who see a purpose in life and value their personal ideals.MAURICE MAETERLINCK (1862-1949) was born in Belgium, into a prosperous Catholic family. He was closely associated with the French literary movement of symbolism, which used symbols to represent ideas and emotions. The author of more than 60 books replete with suggestions of universal mystery and auras of impending doom, Maeterlinck's work as a whole can be read as a symbolist manifesto. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1911.
