The Treasure of the Humble
The Treasure of the Humble, written by Belgian playwright, poet and essayist Maurice Maeterlinck, was originally published in English as translated by Alfred Sutro, with an introduction Arthur Bingham Walkley in 1905.The work is a compilation of thirteen wonderfully composed mystical, metaphysical, & aesthetic essays. Maeterlinck's use of language and narrative is sumptuous and unrivalled. The volume presents Maeterlinck outside of his usual field as a playwright, as a philosopher and aesthete, and the work is often viewed as the apology for his theatre.The book contains important essays, such as: The Awakening of the Soul, Mystic Morality, The Pre-Destined Silence, On Women, The Tragical in Daily Life, The Star, The Invisible Goodness, The Deeper Life and The Inner Beauty.The work was also dedicated to the sister of Maurice Maeterlinck, the French operatic soprano, actress and author Georgette Leblanc.
