About this book
Eighteen chapters by the Belgian writer Maurice Maeterlinck, in Alexander Teixeira de Mattos's translation. Subjects include the dead and messages from beyond the grave, the soul of nations, mothers, the insect world, evil-speaking, the riddle of progress, heredity and karma. The first chapter, The Power of the Dead, begins from Mrs. Oliphant's story of the dead rising against the living, and goes on to say that the dead live on in the thoughts of those who remember them.
