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.

过去在学校写诗的时候,说你没有读过里尔克,都会不好意思,没读过里尔克还算是青年诗人吗?我那时写过一首诗,里面就有一句:“我仍没读过《断章》和里尔克。”其实并非没有读过,里尔克有几首很好的诗,比如人人都知道的《秋日》: 主啊!是时候了。夏日曾经很盛大。 把你的...
评分1902年的深秋,青年学生弗兰斯·克萨危尔·卡卜斯(Franz Xaver Kappus, 1883 – 1966)坐在特雷西亚军事学院古老的栗树下阅读一本书。这本书的作者是奥地利诗人莱内·马利亚·里尔克(Rainer Maria Rilke, 1875 – 1926),曾经的军校学生。 时年十九岁的卡卜斯开始走进那位青...
评分1 这是一本很小的书,拿在手里一点也不沉,重量几乎感觉不到,这本书的主体由十封信组成,每一封信如果用现在的通用信纸来写,也就是一页两页的篇幅,因而读起来一点也不累,非常轻松非常舒适。 这些信是很特殊的,之所以说它们特殊是说这些信虽然是私人信件,但是由于通信者...
评分I.No bravery in your eyes anymore, only sadness 听说《No Bravery》是布朗特服兵役时拿着吉他坐在坦克上写出来的。这使我想起在某个人遥远的梦境里,在一望无垠的原野上,维特根斯坦骑在炮管上,嘴里哼着不知名的曲调,不知那时他心里是否满满都是绝望。里尔...

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.
2019已读22 较《傅雷家书》而更温婉,里尔克之语好似对面谈心,是温情、深沉而又永恒地。舍不得看完。
