The fruitful collaboration between poet and Germanist that brought about the remarkable translation of Sonnets to Orpheus is repeated in this powerful new rendering of the Duino Elegies, perhaps Rilke's greatest - and most profound - poetic achievement. Rainer Maria Rilke's great cycle of ten elegies named after a castle on the Adriatic had its inception, according to Rilke's host at Castle Duino, Maria von Thurn und Taxis-Hohenlohe, on the morning of January 21, 1912. Interrupted by the First World War, the cycle of ten elegies was completed only a decade later.The two great complementary poem cycles, Duino Elegies and Sonnets to Orpheus, are not only the result of an extraordinary kind of contact with the unseen world; they are an attempt to understand that world, and to understand it in its holistic relationship to the visible, tangible, world.
