This vegetable world, which to us appears so placid, so resigned, in which all seems acquies-cence, silence, obedience, meditation, is, on the con-trary, that in which the revolt against destiny is the most vehement and the most stubborn.

Far from being a botanical study, this magnificent poetic work puts the special nature of flowers. The Intelligence of the Flowers constitutes a real philosophical discovery of the floral world, and particularly its interaction with social insects to give birth to life. This original text is surprising by its scientific precision and accuracy. Maeterlinck's meticulous observations lead us to a veritable masterpiece of descriptions and fundamental questions, bringing into question the observer and the observed.
