Rodenbach is known first and foremost for his famous novel Bruges
la Morte. Bruges was his muse and poetic source, the landscape in
which he attempted to reveal the significance of what appeared
lifeless or unconnected to art. Using the symbolist devices of
suggestion and mood, Rodenbach sifts the elements that make up the
decaying Bruges which he sees as a medieval corpse laid out for him
to 'rescue' through his interpretation of its atmosphere of
melancholy, its seductive romantic decline and its lonely
atmosphere. With rare beauty and delicacy, Rodenbach's poetry spins
its web of tonal impressionism and seems always to exist on the
border of silence.
