Intruz, Pelleas i Melisanda i Ślepcy należą do najwybitniejszych utworów Maurice'a Maeterlincka, twórcy dramatu symbolicznego. Każda z tych tragedii wywarła ogromny wpływ na rozwój literatury i sztuki europejskiej oraz światowej. Ich wspólną cechą jest zamierzone niedookreślenie psychologii postaci i szkicowe przedstawienie akcji scenicznej, co pozwala skupić całą uwagę na zaskakującym procesie obnażania umykającego postrzeganiu sensu zjawisk. Wnikające w ukryte czeluści zdarzeń utwory Maeterlincka wydobywają na światło dzienne niedopowiedziane prawdy o człowieku i kierujących nim fundamentalnych pobudkach. Wyrażają równocześnie tajone lęki i bezradność człowieka wobec tajemnicy przeznaczenia. Przełomowe zarówno pod względem formalnym, pod względem poruszanych przez siebie tematów, jak i pełnej tajemniczości atmosfery bliskiej sennym marzeniom, dramaty Maeterlincka są po dziś dzień niewyczerpanym źródłem inspiracji dla pisarzy, malarzy, muzyków czy twórców teatralnych. Lektura dla szkół średnich Maurice Maeterlinck (18621949) belgijski dramaturg, poeta, eseista, pochodzenia flamandzkiego. Dużą popularność zyskały jego szkice filozoficzno-przyrodnicze Życie pszczół i Życie termitów.

Maurice Maeterlinck – belgijski dramaturg, poeta, eseista, piszący w języku francuskim, laureat Nagrody Nobla w dziedzinie literatury za rok 1911. Wśród jego utworów wielką poczytnością cieszyły się znakomite eseje filozoficzno- przyrodnicze, w których dowiódł talentu wnikliwego obserwatora przyrody i umiejętności fascynującego jej opisywania. Dziś prezentujemy jego Inteligencję kwiatów. Ciekawe jest zauważyć, ze po latach wracamy do identycznych obserwacji jak właśnie Maeterlinck, który pisze o swojej książce tak: Szkic mój nie ma zgoła aspiracji stania się podręcznikiem. Jedynie pragnę zwrócić uwagę na kilka interesujących rzeczy, jakie dzieją się tuż obok nas, w tym samym świecie, gdzie uważamy się z taką pychą za istoty uprzywilejowane. (…) Geniusz ziemi, będący prawdopodobnie zarazem geniuszem całego świata, zachowuje się w walce o byt podobnie do człowieka. Stosuje te same metody i posługuje się tą samą logiką. Osiąga cel środkami, jakich się imamy, idzie po omacku, waha się, zawraca, zaczyna po kilka razy jedno, dodaje szczegóły, eliminuje je, poznaje i naprawia błędy. Słowem, robi wszystko, co my byśmy robi na jego miejscu.

Čtyři loutkové hry (Ariana a Modrovous, 1901; Aladina a Palomides, 1894; Smrt Tintagilova, 1894; Sedm princezen, 1891) francouzského spisovatele belgického původu Maurice Maeterlincka a jednoaktovka pro loutky (Udatný Kasián, 1909) rakouského spisovatele Arthura Schnitzlera, kteří milovali loutkové divadlo a dali mu v nich díla vysoce umělecká, dodnes řazená k základním hodnotám loutkového repertoáru pro dospělé diváky.

Soubor esejistických textů Poklad pokorných francouzsky píšícího belgického dramatika, básníka, esejisty, mystika, filosofa a jednoho ze zakladatelů symbolismu Maurice Maeterlincka (1862-1949) vyšel roku 1896 stejně jako další esejistická kniha věnovaná vegetariánství Pohřbený chrám. Maeterlinck se nejdřív představil jako autor dvou básnických sbírek Skleníky (1889) a Dvanáct písní (1896). Renomé si získal především jako dramatik. Jeho nejčastěji uváděnou hrou je snová férie Modrý pták (1908). Úspěch měla i další hra Pélleas a Mélisanda (1892), kterou rovněž známe z operního ztvárnění Clauda Debussyho nebo v podobě symfonické básně Arnolda Schőnberga. Poklad pokorných otevírá často citovaný text Mlčení, v němž autor staví meditativní ticho proti hlučnosti a zneužívání řeči tak, jak se to děje v moderním, mediálním světě. Následují eseje o probuzení duše, o mystické morálce, o ženách, o každodenní tragice, ale také osobité portréty romantického básníka Novalise nebo amerického panteistického filosofa Emersona. Poklad pokorných vyšel poprvé v edici staroříšského Josefa Floriana, podruhé v Knihách dobrých autorů Kamily Neumannové a potřetí v nakladatelství A. Srdce v Praze. Tento svazek je reedicí druhého vydání Maeterlinckových esejů v překladu Marie Kalašové, která velkou část své překladatelské praxe zasvětila právě tomuto autorovi. Knihu doplňuje esej Jana Suka Před každým dnem šla noc.
