Beschreibung
This timeless work by Maurice Maeterlinck, Nobel Prize laureate in literature, offers a profound and poetic view of the fascinating world of bees. The author captivatingly describes the life of a bee colony throughout the year and poses numerous questions that have come to his mind during decades of observing hives and bees, their behavior and expressions, questions for which he diligently seeks answers in the book. In particular, it is the pivotal question of the 'spirit' or 'genius of the hive', that is, the being or intelligence of the bee colony, which manifests itself in myriad ways for those who have eyes to see. Maeterlinck tirelessly reflects on the nature of this spirit, grappling with various objections and trying to trace where the development of bees is headed and what its goal is.
