Blue bird and other plays. Meterlink M.

In the plays “Princess Malen” and “Peleas and Melisanda”, the author takes medieval legends of the courteous period, also prone to symbolic abstraction from reality, however, under the exquisite Feur of Meterlink, they gain completely new decadent features, and the reader is fascinated by the depth of stylized images , with a poetry of high feelings and doomed passions, metaphorical charm and elegance of the word.

The glorified dilogy of Meterlink “Blue Bird” and “Brushing” entered the Golden Fund of not only French, but also world literary symbolism. A bizarre mixture of reality and fantasies. Simple - and at the same time multifaceted images. The search for happiness, leading the heroes as a result to themselves. What is spirituality? What is beauty?
