Bücher von Maurice Maeterlinck

Ce monde végétal qui nous paraît si paisible, si résigné, où tout semble acceptation, silence, obéissance, recueillement, est au contraire celui où la révolte contre la destinée est la plus véhémente et la plus obstinée. Loin d'être un traité de botanique, ce magnifique ouvrage est la mise en lumière poétique de son étude des fleurs ô combien si spéciales. L'Intelligence des Fleurs constitue une réelle découverte philosophique du monde floral et plus particulièrement son interaction avec les insectes sociaux pour faire naitre la vie ; ce texte d'une originalité certaine étonne par sa précision scientifique et la justesse de sa documentation. Les observations minutieuses de Maeterlinck nous conduisent ainsi à un véritable chef-d'¿uvre de descriptions et d'interrogations fondamentales où il est autant question de l'observant que de l'observé.En effet, les analogies qu'il nous fait entrevoir entre le règne végétal et celui des hommes, nous rendent humbles et interrogatifs, émus et songeurs. L'évocation des mécanismes intellectuels des fleurs sous sa plume devient à la fois poétique, philosophique et politique. Entre l'émerveillement et la connaissance, Maeterlinck nous invite à préserver les liens qui nous unissent avec la nature. À l'heure actuelle où la catastrophe écologique menace de détruire cette fragile harmonie, ce livre mérite d'être lu.Maurice Maeterlinck a reçu le prix Nobel de Littérature en 1911 "en reconnaissance de ses multiples activités littéraires, et surtout de ses ¿uvres dramatiques, qui se distinguent par une grande richesse d'imagination et par une fantaisie poétique, qui révèle, parfois sous l'apparence d'un conte de fées, une inspiration profonde, tandis que, d'une manière mystérieuse, elles font appel aux propres sentiments des lecteurs et stimulent leur imagination". Nouvelle version totalement illustrée, format en grands caractères pour une meilleure lisibilité et un plaisir de lecture augmenté.

The Swarm: From The Life Of The Bee is a non-fiction book written by the Belgian author Maurice Maeterlinck and published in 1906. The book is a detailed exploration of the behavior and social organization of bees, written in a poetic and philosophical style. Maeterlinck draws on his own observations as well as the work of other naturalists and scientists to describe the complex world of the hive, from the roles of the queen and drones to the intricate dances used by worker bees to communicate with each other. He also considers the broader significance of bees in human culture and mythology, and reflects on the lessons that can be learned from their example of cooperation and selflessness. The Swarm is a classic work of natural history and a fascinating glimpse into the world of one of nature's most fascinating creatures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
