Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) is one of the greatest lyric German poets. Born in Prague, he published his first book of poems, Leben und Lieber, at age nineteen. He met Lou Salomé, the talented and spirited daughter of a Russian army officer, who influenced him deeply. In 1902 he became the friend, and for a time the secretary, of Rodin, and it was during his twelve-year Paris residence that Rilke enjoyed his greatest poetic activity. In 1919 he went to Switzerland where he spent the last years of his life. It was there that he wrote his last two works, Duino Elegies (1923) and The Sonnets to Orpheus (1923).
Stephen Mitchell was born in Brooklyn in 1943 and studied at Amherst, the University of Paris and Yale. Considered one of the preeminent translators of his generation he has translated many classic texts including Gilgamesh, The Bhagavad Gita, Tao Te Ching and the Book of Job.

评分“在你心灵深处挖掘一个答复,我要写吗?我一定要写吗?” 一个诗人,本质上是一个艺术家,在这本书中,我找到的是伟大而孤独的人格和敏感和沉思的巨大张力。 冯至先生的翻译也相当见功力。

Rilke's Letters to a Young Poet are arguably the most famous and beloved letters of the twentieth century. Written when the poet was himself still a young man, with most of his greatest work before him, they were addressed to a student who had sent Rilke some of his own writing, asking for advice on becoming a writer. The two never met, but over a period of several years Rilke wrote him these ten letters, which have been cherished by hundreds of thousands of readers for what Stephen Mitchell calls in his Foreword that "vibrant and deeply felt experience of life" that informs them. Eloquent and personal, Rilke's meditations on the creative process, the nature of love, the wisdom of children, and the importance of solitude offer a wealth of spiritual and practical guidance for anyone. At the same time, this collection, in Stephen Mitchell's definitive translation, reveals the thoughts and feelings of one of the greatest poets and most distinctive sensibilities of the twentieth century.
Written between 1903 and 1908 to a student who had sent Rilke his poems for evaluation, these ten letters--among the most famous and beloved of this century--reveal the deeply felt ideas about life and art that shaped the great poet's work. Two-color interior.
no better reading for tonight
评分I love this book. I would love to print the entire books page by page - and stick them against walls of my room. To me, reading this book is he experience of getting to know how much understanding I am entitled to expect - and it was such a joy. Not so much of a joy when I actually read poems of Rilke, tho.
评分给五星不是仅因为他是里尔克,而是他竟然那么认真地与陌生人分享了自己对人生的很多思考与经历.读着这些一句一句都切中我心中种种人生疑惑的文字,真心感激文字和书本能使里尔克隔着那么多的年代清晰耐心地解开或安抚我许多个心结.
