The first part discusses the nature of beauty and its relationship to the individual. Maeterlinck argues that beauty is not something that can be possessed or acquired, but rather it is something that is experienced and appreciated. He suggests that the beauty of the world is a reflection of the beauty within the individual, and that the two are intimately connected.The second part of the book focuses on the relationship between the individual and the universe. Maeterlinck suggests that the universe is a living organism, and that each individual is a part of this greater whole.
