The Blue Bird and Other Plays

No circulation

In the plays Princess Malene and Pelléas and Mélisande, the author takes medieval legends of the courtly period, which are also prone to symbolic abstraction from reality, — however, under the exquisite pen of Maeterlinck, they acquire completely new decadent... traits, and the reader is enchantingly amazed by the depth of stylized images, the poetry of high feelings and doomed passions, metaphorical charm and elegance of word. Maeterlinck's acclaimed dyiology The Blue Bird and The Betrothal has entered the golden fund not only of French but also of world literary symbolism. A fanciful mixture of reality and fantasy. Simple — and at the same time multifaceted images. The search for happiness, ultimately leading the heroes back to themselves. What is spirituality? What is beauty?
