	Famous Belgians - Maurice Maeterlinck (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Maeterlinck was born in Ghent and educated in law at the university there.
		Maeterlinck's plays are characterized by clear and simple writing, by a dreamlike atmosphere, and by the suggestion rather than the direct expression of ideas and emotions.
		Maeterlinck was also the author of many works in prose that deal with philosophic questions and with nature; they include “The Treasure of the Humble” (1896, translated in 1897), “The Life of the Bee” (1901) and “The Intelligence of Flowers” (1907).

	Maurice Maeterlinck
		IN appearance, Maurice Maeterlinck--who is sometimes called the "Belgian Shakespeare"--was the direct opposite of the mysticism of his writings.
		Maeterlinck's later plays, represented particularly by Monna Vanna and Mary Magdalene, are in decided contrast to the tendencies of the earlier ones, while The Bluebird, the Christmas novelty by which he is best known, is an imaginative play in a class by itself.
		In 1911, Maeterlinck was honored with the Nobel Prize for literary achievement.

	Maurice Maeterlinck
		Maeterlinck was closely associated with the French literary movement called symbolism, which used symbols to represent ideas and emotions.
		His father, Polydore Maeterlinck, was a retired notary and a small land owner, and mother, Mathilde (Van den Bossche) Maeterlinck, was the daughter of an affluent lawyer.
		From this period dates Maeterlinck's metaphysical essays LE TRÉSOR DES HUMBLES (1896, The Treasure of the Humble), LA SAGESSE ET LA DESTINÉE (1898, Wisdom and Destiny) and LA VIE DES ABEILLES (1901, The Life of the Bee), in which he examined analogies between the activity of the bee and human behavior.

		He had already been touched by the influence of the symbolists and the mystical thought of Novalis and Emerson; his eventual 60-odd volumes can be read as a symbolist manifesto.
		Their suggestion of universal mystery, their insistence on ennui and impending doom affected the mood of a whole generation before World War I. Maeterlinck was awarded the 1911 Nobel Prize in Literature, but after 1920 his creative powers declined.

	Monna Vanna
		Above all, MaEterlinck is the portrayer of the remote, the poet of symbols; therefore it may seem out of place to bring him down to earth, to simplify him, or to interpret his revolutionary spirit.
		Besides, we have Maeterlinck's own conception of the significance of the revolutionary spirit In a very masterly article called "The Social Revolution," he discusses the objection on the part of the conservative section of society to the introduction of revolutionary methods.
		Maeterlinck realizes that there are certain grievances in society, iniquitous conditions which demand immediate solution, and that if we do not solve them with the readiest and quickest methods at our command, they will react upon society and upon life a great deal more terribly than even the most terrible revolutions.

	A Note on the Origin of Memes/Mnemes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Also, in an endnote in the second (1989) edition of The Selfish Gene, where he elaborates on a sentence in the main text of the book which reads "Memes should be regarded as living structures, not just metaphorically but technically".
		So I was relieved to receive recently a very interesting paper by Juan Delius of the University of Konstanz in Germany, [who] is bold enough to ram home the point by actually publishing a detailed picture of what the neuronal hardware of a meme might look like" (Dawkins, 1989, p.323).
		To repeat, it is hard to believe that Dawkins was not at least aware of Maeterlinck (who also wrote The Life of the Bee, which my copy shows went into 34 printings [in English] between 1901 and 1948), and this author's use of the term `mneme'.

	4, The Life of the Bee, Maurice Maeterlinck, 1901 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		For although the diameter of a cell is admirably regular, it is, like all things preduced by a living organism, not mathematically invariable in the same hive.
		Further, as M. Maurice Girard has pointed out, the apothem of the cell varies among different races of bees, so that the standard would alter from hive to hive, according to the species of bee that inhabited it.
		But the evocation of this feeble cry, whenever opportunity offers, is none the less one of our most unmistakable duties; nor should we let ourselves be discouraged by its apparent futility.

		WE WILL NOW, so as to draw more closely to nature, consider the different episodes of the swarm as they come to pass in an ordinary hive, which is ten or twenty times more populous than an observation one, and leaves the bees entirely free and untrammeled.
		It is rarely indeed that this second stage can be followed by man. The swarm returns to nature; and we lose the track of its destiny.
