Excerpt from The Development of Maurice Maeterlinck and Other Sketches of Foreign Writers
The English Edition of M. Maeterlinck"s "Aglavaine and Selysette" to which a graceful introduction was furnished by Mr J. W. Mackail, has called fresh attention to the claims of the interesting Belgian writer who has been somewhat rashly styled "the Flemish Shakespeare." He has never, perhaps, received in this country the consideration which is his due, partly because extravagant pretensions were made for him by injudicious friends, partly for the reason that his dramas have been classed as part of the Scandinavian movement inaugurated by the social plays of Henrik Ibsen.
