New Poems: A Bilingual Edition

Rainer Maria Rilke

3.5/5 ( ratings)

New Poems represented a departure for Rilke from the traditional German lyric poetry of which he was then considered a master. Apparent in the poems is the influence of Rodin--for whom Rilke had worked?as well as other visual artists, including Hokusai, Cezanne, Van Gogh, and Picasso. Rilke forced language to extremes of subtlety and refinement that only now, in Stephen Cohn's translations, is being captured properly in English.

Language: English

Pages: 296

Format: Paperback
