Hailed as the greatest modern lyrical poet of Germany, Rainer Maria Rilke's genius lies in his passion for perfection, artistic integrity and `willingness to remain a perpetual beginner'. The verse contained in this selection ranges from the objective, naturalistic descriptions of his earliest works to the increasingly effusive outpourings of half-religious ecstasy and anguish that characterize his later poems and culminates in the overwhelmingly personal vision of the famous `Duino Elegies' and `The Sonnets to Orpheus', in which his most intense experiences of living and being find their noblest expression.

A century and a half after his birth, Rainer Maria Rilke remains woven into English-speaking culture in ways unexpected for a difficult modern poet, and especially one writing in German. Many readers will know individual titles from the two volumes of New Poems ( Neue Gedichte), presented here in full. But the vast majority of these poems are little known in the English-speaking world. In John Greening's fresh, lively translation, the tidal pull of Rilke's internal music and astonishing imagery comes to the surface alongside the poems' elaborate rhyme and meter. Although Rilke's poems are often described as Dinggedichte—thing-poems—that term is more useful in helping us see the poems themselves as individual artifacts, which in turn conveys something of Rilke's style. What may be surprising to those who assume that poets write solely on inspiration is the business-like way Rilke set up a production line for the New Poems, starting with a list of a hundred or so topics and crossing them off as he went. These poems look both inward and outward, and their variety is considerable—there are tour-de-force works as well as simple, quietly affective pieces. Rilke makes formal and thematic connections across a spectrum of tone and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Though as yet little known in English-speaking countries, Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) is the finest German poet of this century and one of the greatest lyrical writers in the history of Western literature. A major figure in the modernist movement, with some affinities to Yeats, Rilke had a profound influence on other 20th century poets such as Pasternak and Akhmatova. He is a master of vivid and breathtakingly original imagery in which difficult ideas are made directly apprehensible to the reader and new worlds of experience are opened up. This selection includes poems from all stages of his career, beginning with the delicate works of his early years, through the extraordinary poems he wrote in French (which he used like a first language) and concluding with his mature masterpieces: the SONNETS TO ORPHEUS and the DUINO ELEGIES. Also included are Rilke''s prose LETTERS TO A YOUNG POET in which he counsels a younger colleague and expounds his own literary ideal. This is by far the most comprehensive selection from this poet in English and forms an ideal introduction to this work.

Rainer Maria Rilke offers a compelling portrait of Parisian life, art, and culture at the beginning of the 20th century.In 1902, the young German writer Rainer Maria Rilke traveled to Paris to write a monograph on the sculptor Auguste Rodin. He returned many times over the course of his life, by turns inspired and appalled by the city''s high culture and low society, and his writings give a fascinating insight into Parisian art and culture in the last century. Paris was a lifelong source of inspiration for Rilke. Perhaps most significantly, the letters he wrote about it formed the basis of his prose masterpiece, The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge. Much of this work, despite its perennial popularity in French, German, and Italian, has never before been translated into English. This volume brings together a translation of Rilke''s essay on poetry, ''Notes on the Melody of Things'' and the first English translation of Rilke''s experiences in Paris as observed by his French translator.

An intimate glimpse into the life and letters of Rainer Maria Rilke, one of the most important poets of the twentieth century.  In July 1921, displaced European poet Rainer Maria Rilke sequestered himself in the chateau of Muzot, a thirteenth-century medieval tower perched in the vineyards above the town of Sierre in the Canton Valais, Switzerland. In this sun-flooded landscape of the Rhone Valley, he found beguiling echoes of Spain and his beloved Provence. Here, the Duino Elegies were famously completed and the Sonnets to Orpheus followed.  During this time, Rilke’s correspondence also bloomed, and Letters around a Garden collects some of those letters together into English for the first time. One intriguing exchange from 1924 to 1926 was with a young aristocratic Swiss woman Antoinette de Bonstetten, a passionate horticulturist who had been recommended as a potential advisor for the redesign and upkeep of the Muzot rose garden. In twenty-two precious letters originally written in French, Rilke relishes the prospect of their elusive meeting, keenly discusses the plans for his garden, and wittily laments the trials of his plants. Beyond the encomium for Paul Valéry and poignant memory of place are passages of exquisite writing, in which ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Never before translated into English, Rainer Maria Rilke’s fascinating Letters to a Young Painter, written toward the end of his life between 1920 and 1926, is a surprising companion to his infamous Letters to a Young Poet, earlier correspondence from 1902 to 1908. While the latter has become a global phenomenon, with millions of copies sold in many different languages, the present volume has been largely overlooked.In these eight intimate letters written to a teenage Balthus—who would go on to become one of the leading artists of his generation—Rilke describes the challenges he faced, while opening the door for the young painter to take himself and his work seriously. Rilke’s constant warmth, his ability to sense in advance his correspondent’s difficulties and propose solutions to them, and his sensitivity as a person and an artist come across in these charming and honest letters. Writing during his aged years, this volume paints a picture of the venerable poet as he faced his mortality, through the perspective of hindsight, and continued to embrace his openness towards other creative individuals.

In Stephen Mitchell’s versions of Rilke’s two greatest masterpieces readers will discover an English rendering that captures the lyric intensity, fluency, and reach of his poetry. Stephen Mitchell adheres impeccably to Rilke’s text, to his formal music, and to the complexity of his thought; at the same time, Mitchell’s work has authority and power as poetry in its own right.

At the start of the twentieth century, Rainer Maria Rilke wrote a series of letters to a young officer cadet, advising him on writing, love, sex, suffering and the nature of advice itself; these profound and lyrical letters have since become hugely influential for writers and artists of all kinds. This book also contains the ''Letter from a Young Worker'', a striking polemic against Christianity written in letter-form, near the end of Rilke''s life. In Lewis Hyde''s introduction, he explores the context in which these letters were written and how the author embraced his isolation as a creative force. Charlie Louth''s afterword discusses the similarities and contrasts of the two works, and Rilke''s religious and sexual wordplay.

From one of the most famous poets in history comes a new selection of writings to bereaved friends and acquaintances, providing comfort in a time of grief and words to soothe the soul.''A treasure. The solace Rilke offers is uncommon, uplifting and necessary'' OBSERVERThroughout his life, the poet Rainer Maria Rilke addressed letters to individuals who were close to him, who had contacted him after reading his works, or who he had met briefly – anyone with whom he felt an inner connection. Within his vast correspondence, there are about two dozen letters of condolence. In these direct, personal and practical letters, Rilke writes about loss and mortality, assuming the role of a sensitive, serious and uplifting guide through life’s difficulties. He consoles a friend on the loss of her nephew, which she experienced like the loss of her own child; a mentor on the death of her dog; and an acquaintance struggling to cope with the end of a friendship. The result is a profound vision of mourning and a meditation on the role of pain in our lives, as well as a soothing guide for how to get through it.Where things become truly difficult and unbearable, we find ...

2025 Indie Book Awards Finalist | Poetry “Rilke''s voice from the last tumultuous young century reaches tenderly into ours. But his lush German is a language of its own. Mark Burrows has a rare gift to coax it faithfully into English. I am delighted, and so very grateful for this book.” —Krista Tippett, host of “On Being” On the centennial of the first appearance (1923) of Rilke’s Sonnets to Orpheus, award-winning translator Mark Burrows reveals their depth and meaning with a brilliant new introduction and translation. This new translation captures the lyric beauty of Rilke''s poems, honoring their syntactic peculiarities and grammatical complexities as few translators have dared to do. Burrows’ versions maintain the essential strangeness of language and abruptness of metaphor by which the sonnets attain their distinctive character in German. Burrows'' approach replicates what one reviewer describes as the poems’ “dazzling obscurity,” refusing to resolve the deliberate difficulties Rilke’s formulations present. The effect invites readers to linger with these sonnets, allowing themselves to be shaped in their encounter with them.

Rilkův "Kornet" je v německém prostředí cosi jako Máchův "Máj" u nás: báseň o mladé lásce a nesmyslné smrti, čerpající z co nejvíce možností zvukomalebnosti jazyka. Rilke (1875 Praha - 1926 sanatorium Valmont ve Švýcarsku) napsal první verzi Korneta, když mu bylo 23 let, sedm let nato ji ovšem (naštěstí) zásadně přepsal. Absolutním bestsellerem (do konce 50. let milión výtisků) se stala, když ji nakladatelství Insel vydalo v roce 1912 jako svou první publikaci. O prózu se jedná jen zdánlivě. Některé pasáže jsou komponované v pravidelných metrech, které Rilke zatřel tím, že je nerozčlenil do veršů. Skoro každá kapitola je rytmizována jinak, překvapuje jiným poetickým nápadem podporujícím pocity a děj. Překladatel Ondřej Cikán napodobuje formální aspekty originálu co nejvěrněji. Nehraje si na virtuozitu tam, kde v originále panuje strohost. Ve virtuózních pasážích respektuje rytmus a dodržuje původní kompozici. Báseň s německým názvem Weise von Liebe und Tod des Cornets Christoph Rilke vychází v zrcadlovém překladu.

Zápisky Malta Lauridse Brigga lze označit za "dějiny duše". Jediný román velikého básníka patří k nejvlivnějším a nejtrvalejším světovým beletristickým dílům. Vystavěn je na estetice smyslů - události a okamžiky jsou prožívány jako vizuální, akustické, hmatové a čichové vjemy, které probouzejí hluboko uložené zážitky a dávají vzniknout novým myšlenkám. Román se vyznačuje zvláštní směsicí poetiky a prozaičnosti, je to tichá, snovým dojmem působící próza s nezapomenutelnými scénami, které jsou podávány v přesných, analytických popisech, jindy v intenzivních lyrických líčeních. Je to próza, která zasahuje čtenáře podobně náhlými odhaleními a vědomím existence nadpřirozeného jako Rilkova poezie. Rilkův jazyk je v pravém smyslu krásný. Překlad dokonale zprostředkovává znepokojivou krásu originálu, tlumočí do češtiny nejenom význam, ale i perleťový odlesk určitých pasáží, soumračné vyzařování Rilkových slov, a především melodii: teskný valčíkový rytmus vět, jenž se někdy ozývá z hloubky, jindy pulzuje zřetelně při samém povrchu. Maltova křehká, vlastně zhýčkaná duše často myslí na smrt a na duchy své aristokratické rodiny, jejímž je Malte jediným žijícím potomkem. Pomyšlení na vlastní útrapy mu však pomáhá zahánět soucit se zavrženými a trpícími, jimž aktivně pomáhá, a tak se váha smrti a života postupně přechyluje ve prospěch života.

While his old furniture rots in storage, Malte Laurids Brigge lives in a cheap room in Paris, with little but a library reader's card to distinguish him from the city's untouchables. Every person he sees seems to carry their death with them, and he thinks of the deaths, and ghosts, of his aristocratic family, of which only he remains. The only novel by one of the greatest writers of poetry in German, the semi-autobiographical Notebooks is an uneasy, compelling and poetic book that anticipated Sartre and is full of passages of lyrical brilliance.Michael Hulse's new translation perfectly conveys the unsettling beauty of the original and is accompanied by an introduction on Rilke's life and the biographical and literary influences on the Notebooks.

Although Emily Dickinson wrote nearly 2,000 poems, only a handful were ever published in her lifetime, and those anonymously. Today, she is recognized as one of the most important American poets of the nineteenth century, one whose unconventional use of language and rhyme anticipated the break with tradition of much modern poetry written after it. The Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson collects more than 150 of Dickinson's brief but memorable poems. Bursting with insights about life, love, nature, death, and immortality, these poems are among the best loved and most reprinted in English literature.

W.B. Yeats's Selected Poems is edited with an introduction and notes by Timothy Webb in Penguin Modern Classics.Few have lived their ideas so passionately and nobly as W.B. Yeats in his love affairs, politics and poetry. From his youth in the 1880s, a fertile dreamer rediscovering and remaking the Irish tradition, he grew into a great and innovative poet of the twentieth century. This selection of Yeats's work includes the final book from the unjustly neglected narrative poem The Wanderings of Oisin and a number of lyrics from Yeats's work as poetic dramatist. This edition breaks new ground by allowing the reader to engage with a dozen poems in alternative versions; in many other cases it provides significant variants, so that Yeats's struggle to revise his poetry can be experienced with unusual immediacy. It also includes explanatory and textual notes for each poem.W B Yeats (1865-1939) was one of the great and innovative poets of the twentieth century. Much of his most vigorous verse on love, sex, Irish and international politics, the complexities of the occult and the 'sedentary toil' of poetry was produced in the years between his fiftieth birthday in 1915 and his death in 1939.If you enjoyed ...

Lou Andreas-Salomé, dcera francouzského generála ruské armády, která dětství prožila v Petrohradu, autorka několika knih a mnoha článků a recenzí, se v květnu 1897 s Rilkem seznámila jako zralá šestatřicetiletá žena, velmi inteligentní a přitažlivá. Z jejich setkání se zrodilo intelektuální přátelství spisovatelky a dvaadvacetiletého básníka, jež zakrátko přerostlo v milenecký vztah. Zamilovaný estét myje u své milé nádobí a štípe dříví do kamen. Tak blaženou lásku prožívá poprvé - zároveň naposledy. Velký básník lásky, jehož matčina výchova i roky strávené na vojenském gymnáziu přesvědčily o vlastní fyzické podprůměrnosti, se v milostné sféře stává podstatně sebevědomější než v jiných mezilidských vztazích, které mu často jsou přítěží.

The renowned and controversial author of many books of poems, plays, and translations, Lowell was one of the United States’ most honoured poets, winning the Pulitzer Prize in Poetry in 1947 and 1974, the National Book Award, and the National Book Critics Circle Award. His ongoing interrogation of his family legacy, his personal struggle with manic depression, and his mastery of the tradition of poetry in English formed the groundbreaking autobiographical foundation of Life Studies (1959) and the books that followed it, including For the Union Dead (1964), Near the Ocean (1967), History (1973), and Day by Day (1977).Katie Peterson’s incisive selection of Lowell’s poems draws attention to ‘the perishability of life, its twinned quality of fragility and repetition, as framed by the structured evanescence of daily consciousness.’ Lowell’s own intense dramas and struggles are the substrate he drew on in his restless search to make sense of, and fix, shape-shifting experience – not his, but ours. As Peterson says, Lowell was ‘constitutionally immune ... Unknown localization key: "more"

"Do you cherish your humble and silky life?" She makes us see the extraordinary in our everyday lives, how something as common as light can be "an invitation / to happiness, / and that happiness, / when it''s done right, / is a kind of holiness, / palpable and redemptive."

SHORTLISTED FOR THE WALCOTT PRIZEThis Selected Poems offers the perfect introduction to a distinguished body of work that has established Lavinia Greenlaw as one of the most perceptive and original poets of her generation. From her arresting debut, Night Photograph (1993), through five further collections, the poems reflect a lifelong preoccupation with perception: how we describe what we see or envisage what we can’t see, and how we locate ourselves in place and time and in relation to one another. The selection also documents a poet moving through life from young love and early parenthood to the years of uncertainty, endurance, reflection and loss. The book comes to rest on The Built Moment (2019) with its heart-breaking sequence about her father’s dementia and what it means to disappear into the present tense. Yet even here we are shown that among the broken and the fragmented, the provisional and the changeable, there is always something left from which to build.

An essential selection from the range and bulk of Robert Graves''s poetry, edited by Ulster poet Michael Longley. This edition restores Graves to view as a major twentieth century poet, and demonstrates his manifold achievement as war poet, as love poet, and as - in the round - a secular visionary whose poems are ''inimitable, eccentric marvels - some of which are extraordinary, many are masterly, all are like nothing else ever written'' (Randall Jarrell).This edition of Robert Graves''s poems is scrupulously selected from across the full range of his lifetime''s verse. It opens with an illuminating introduction in which Longley makes a persuasive case for the importance of this remarkable poet.

The Selected Poems of Bermudian poet Nancy Anne Miller traces the decades she has been writing about her homeland, with the use of image metaphor as her primary tool for revealing Bermuda’s complexities. Her choice of this technique is to consciously break apart linear intentional thinking or the masculine sentence as Woolf referenced.For Miller, the use of image metaphor allows a poem’s meaning to radiate across the entire poem as one thing is reflected through another in a circular movement, hence preventing one final climatic interpretation. She states: “The island’s history cannot be written down in a straight line” – and sees this as a female-voiced way of being a poet, one that is inclusive, layered, and exploratory.*“These taut, image-dense poems provide (among other things) a kind of time-lapse record of Bermuda’s history, showing how ‘an entire empire hangs in the chintz curtain.’ Everyday life in Bermuda (and beyond) is evoked by a set of tensions – between the culture of taste, class, and propriety and the history of race, caste, and violence; between the sense of prized uniqueness and dulling isolation; between a sense of remoteness from the world and the exemplariness of the island-as-world.

Z jejich setkání se zrodilo intelektuální přátelství spisovatelky a dvaadvacetiletého básníka, jež zakrátko přerostlo v milenecký vztah. Zamilovaný estét myje u své milé nádobí a štípe dříví do kamen. Tak blaženou lásku prožívá poprvé – zároveň naposledy. Velký básník lásky, jehož matčina výchova i roky strávené na vojenském gymnáziu přesvědčily o vlastní fyzické podprůměrnosti, se v milostné sféře stává podstatně sebevědomější než v jiných mezilidských vztazích, které mu často jsou přítěží. Dříve trávil čas po kavárnách, redakcích a na premiérách, nyní ale dokáže žít měsíce o samotě. Velkým zážitkem se pro něj stává příroda. Pod...

From early, rhyming works in Love Poems and Others (1913) to the ground-breaking exploration of free verse in Birds, Beasts and Flowers (1923) the poems of D. H. Lawrence challenged convention and inspired later poets.This volume includes extensive selections from these and other editions, and contains some his most famous poems, such as ''Piano'', a nostalgic reflection on lost youth and love for his mother; ''Snake'', exploring human fear of the natural world; the short, cutting comment on sexual politics of ''Can''t Be Borne''; and the quiet philosophical resignation of ''Basta!''. Using the revised poems, but in the order in which they appeared in their original collections, this selection offers a fresh perspective that reveals an innovative poet who gave voice to his most intense emotions.

Five of his paintings are today in the Tate. His daughter is the painter Rosa Branson.The Selected Poems of Clive Branson brings together, for the first time, the best of his surviving poetry. Passionate and committed, it’s a first-hand account of the most violent years of the twentieth-century – Britain in the Slump, Spain during the civil-war, Fascist prisons, the London Blitz, the cultural shock of India and its poverty, the war against Japan – recorded with a painterly eye and a communist faith in the power of the people.

Explore the essence of life, love, nature, and time in exquisite verse with this elegantly designed edition of Emily Dickinson’s finest poems. Born in 1830 in Amherst, Massachusetts, to a prominent New England family and educated at Amherst Academy and Mt. Holyoke Female Seminary, Emily Elizabeth Dickinson lived most of her life in seclusion, devoted to writing. She scarcely left home, nor did she have many visitors. Only ten of her poems were published in her lifetime, submitted without her permission by friends. It was only after her death in 1886 that the scope of her work as a poet came to light—over 1,700 poems were discovered in a dresser drawer by her sister, Lavinia. Emily Dickinson’s poems reflect her loneliness, as well as her love of nature, the influence of the Metaphysical poets of seventeenth century England, and her strong Puritan religious beliefs. Yet, it is her use of language, form, and the deceptive simplicity of her verse that categorize her as an important force in nineteenth century American letters and, along with Walt Whitman, a founder of a distinctly American voice in modern poetry.
