At the end of this millennium, his slender book holds everything a student of the century could want: the unedited thoughts of (arguably) the most important European poet of the modern age. Rilke wrote these 10 sweepingly emotional letters in 1903, addressing a former student of one of his own teachers. The recipient was wise enough to omit his own inquiries from the finished product, which means that we get a marvelously undiluted dose of Rilkean aesthetics and exhortation.

Gass Signature Rainer Maria Rilke (4 December 1875 – 29 December 1926) was a Bohemian Austrian poet and art critic . He is considered one of the most significant poets in the German language.

He wrote in both verse and a highly lyrical prose . Among English-language readers, his best-known work is the Duino Elegies ; his two most famous prose works are the Letters to a Young Poet and the semi-autobiographical The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge .

In 1897, Rilke went to Russia, a trip that would prove to be a milestone in Rilke's life, and which marked the true beginning of his early serious works.

The Blindman's Song I am blind, you outsiders. It is a curse, a contradiction, a tiresome farce, and every day I despair. I put my hand on the arm of my wife (colorless hand on colorless sleeve) and she walks me through empty air. You push and shove and think that you've been sounding different from stone against stone, but you are mistaken: I alone live and suffer and howl. In me there is an endless outcry and I can't tell what's crying, whether its my broken heart or my bowels. Are the tunes familiar? You don't sing them like this: how could you understand? Each morning the sunlight comes into your house, and you welcome it as a friend. And you know what it's like to see face-to-face; and that tempts you to be

Rilke Poems Rilke, Rainer Maria View: Rilke Poems Writer and poet, considered one of the greatest lyric poets of modern Germany. Rilke created the 'object poem' attempting to describe with utmost clarity physical objects, the "silence of their concentrated reality." He became famous with such works as DUINESER ELEGIEN and DIE SONETTE AN ORPHEUS. They both appeared in 1923. After these books, Rilke had published his major works, believing that he had done his best as a writer. "Works of art are indeed always products of having been in danger, of having gone to the very end in an experience, to where man can go no further." (from Letters) Rainer Maria Rilke was born in Prague as the son of Josef Rilke, a railway official and the former Sophie Entz. A crucial fact in Rilke's life was that his mother called him Sophia. She forced him to wear girl's clothes until he was aged five - compensating for the earlier loss of a baby daughter. Rilke's parents separared when he was nine and his militarily inclined father sent him at ten to the military academies of St. P?n and Mahrisch-Weisskirchenn. He suffered at the military academy, and was sent to a business school in Linz. He also worked in his uncle's law firm. Rilke continued his studies at the universities of Prague, Munich, and Berlin.

Flower In The Crannied Wall - Alfred Tennyson Song Christina Rossetti Rememberance - Rilke Rainer Maria rilke And you wait, keep waiting for that one thing which would infinitely enrich your life: the powerful, uniquely uncommon, the awakening of dormant stones, depths that would reveal you to yourself. In the dusk you notice the book shelves with their volumes in gold and in brown; and you think of far lands you journeyed, of pictures and of shimmering gowns worn by women you conquered and lost. And it comes to you all of a sudden: That was it! And you arise, for you are aware of a year in your distant past with its fears and events and prayers. - Rilke, Rainer Maria Translated by Albert Ernest Flemming If You enjoyed this post, please subscribe to our RSS feed.

12. The Sonnets To Orpheus By Rainer Maria Rilke Translated By Robert Hunter Translated by Robert Hunter. http://www.hunterarchive.com/files/Poetry/SonnetsToOrpheus.html

The Sonnets to Orpheus by Rainer Maria Rilke Translation by Robert Hunter PREFACE Written concurrently with later parts of the Duino Elegies, the "small russet sails" of the sonnets (Rilke's description) compliment the dark rigging of the greater work. Duino Elegies are freeform unrhymed verse; The Sonnets to Orpheus: bright, discrete songs, ranging in tone from transcendent to cantankerous. A handful are of drastically inferior quality to the others, as though spuriously added by a surreptitious hand. I believe the explanation is that they had profound sentimental value to Rilke, written at a time of grief at the death of a young friend, the dancer Vera Knoop, and are included on her account. I acknowledge indebtedness to many previous translators of The Sonnets for guidance in nuance and a variety of perceptions concerning relative weights among the images. Robert Hunter PART ONE Tree arising! O pure ascendance! Orpheus Sings! Towering tree within the ear! Everywhere stillness, yet in this abeyance: seeds of change and new beginnings near.
