RESUMO

At the end of the 19th century, the Belgian poet and playwright Maurice Maeterlinck (1862-1949) fulfills the dramatic aspirations of the Symbolist movement through a collection of eight plays, written between 1889 and 1894, which are witnesses not only to the authors theatrical conception, but to the symbolist theater evolution as well. Departing from the very limitations of verbal communication and from the conception of an eloquent silence, Maeterlinck develops a project that contemplates a thorough review of the dramatic dialogue, a project which has recently been associated to the making of modern drama. This study seeks to illustrate Maeterlinck`s dramatic project through an appreciation of his theories and examples from the plays which represent his Symbolist drama.
