Earlier in his career he had been accused of plagiarizing from the work of the South African writer Eugene Marais, to write his scientific expose of termites, The Soul of the White Ant. That period also saw him produce his works The Supreme Law and The Intelligence of Flowers. His best known works featured characters like the unnamed grandfather who faces a personified Death in The Intruder and Ariane, who tries to flee from Bluebeard. His most famous work, a series of twelve tableaux, finds the fairy Berylune helping the children Mytyl and Tyltyl to find the titular avian. For ten points identify this Belgian author who wrote the plays The Princess Maleine, Pelleas and Mellisande, and The Blue Bird.
