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.
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.
1931年的冯至在读了里尔克给一个青年的十封信后,写下了这样的感悟: “人们爱把青年比作春,这比喻是正确的。可是彼此的相似点与其说是青年人的晴朗有如春阳的明丽,倒不如从另出方面看,青年人的愁苦、青年人的生长,更像那在阴云暗淡的风里、雨里、寒里演变着的春。因为后...
评分奧地利詩人里爾克在三十歲左右的時候,跟一位二十出頭的年輕詩人卡卜斯通信,這些一百年前的書信,談及有志成為作家的年輕人,如何透過深沉的自省,以及思考自身與世界的關係,堅立在作家孤獨的路途上。我多麼折服於里爾克的深沉和善意,對一個素未謀面的人,發出這些源自內心...
评分 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...
评分里尔克说你应当面对孤独,而不是逃避,不是找些哄闹的寄托,不是找些不相干的人来陪伴。把自己浸没在热闹里并不能摆脱孤独,反而会使自己错过了孤独给予的好处。 确实,仅靠自己,很多事都完不成。但是同样,没有孤独也完不成很多事。 有朋友和我说,人是...
干了这碗鸡汤…
评分已购。P6:Confess to yourself whether you would have to die if you were forbidden to write .This most of all:ask yourself in the most silent hour of your night:MUST I write?Dig into yourself for a deep answer. P94:Don't observe yourself too closely.Don't be too quick to draw conclusions from what happens to you;simply let it happen.
评分德语和英语更相近,译出来也流畅多了,文字真挚优美,德语进步后一定要看原文。顺便看了冯至的中文译本,实在有些惨不忍睹
