The Blue Bird and Other Plays
4.99 €
In the plays "Princess Malen" and "Peleas and Melisande" the author takes medieval legends of the Courtois period, also prone to symbolic abstraction from reality - but under the exquisite pen of Maeterlinck, they acquire completely new decadent features, and the reader is fascinated by the depth of stylized images, the poetry of high feelings and doomed passions, metaphorical charm and elegance of the word.
Maeterlinck's celebrated dilogy "The Blue Bird" and "Betrothal" entered the golden fund of not only French but also world literary symbolism. A bizarre mixture of reality and fantasy. Simple - and at the same time multifaceted images. The search for happiness, leading the heroes in the end to themselves. What is spirituality? What is beauty?
