The Treasure of the Humble is a collection of philosophical essays by Belgian playwright and essayist Maurice Maeterlinck. Originally published in French in 1896, the book explores the concept of the humble and their place in the world. Maeterlinck argues that the humble, or those who are often overlooked or undervalued, possess a unique and valuable perspective on life. He examines the role of humility in society and the importance of recognizing and appreciating the simple things in life. The book is divided into seven essays, each exploring a different aspect of the humble, from their connection to nature to their relationship with the divine. The Treasure of the Humble is a thought-provoking and insightful work that challenges readers to reconsider their own values and perspectives.1903. With Introduction by A.B. Walkley. Play by the Belgian poet, dramatist, essayist and Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature and whose literary career began with the publication of two volumes of poetry. With M. Maeterlinck as a dramatist the world is pretty well acquainted. This little volume presents him in the new character of a philosopher and an aesthetician. And it is in some sort an apology for his theater, the one being to the other as theory to practice. Contents: Silence; The Awakening of the Soul; The Predestined; Mystic Morality; On Women; The Tragical in Daily Life; The Star; The Invisible Goodness; The Deeper Life; and The Inner Beauty.
