Book excerpt: 'Nowhere, beloved, can world be but within us' Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) is one of the leading poets of European Modernism, and one of the greatest twentieth-century lyric poets in German. From The Book of Hours in 1905 to the Sonnets of Orpheus written in 1922, his poetry explores themes of death, love, and loss. He strives constantly to interrogate the relationship between his art and the world around him, moving from the neo-romantic and the mystic towards the precise craft of expressing the everyday in poetry. This bilingual edition fully reflects Rilke's poetic development. It contains the full text of the Duino Elegies and the Sonnets to Orpheus, selected poems from The Book of Images, New Poems, and earlier volumes, and from the uncollected poetry 1906-26. The translations are accurate, sensitive, and nuanced, and are accompanied by an introduction and notes that elucidate Rilke's poetic practice and his central role in modern poetry.

Book Synopsis Duino Elegies by : Rainer Maria Rilke
Download or read book Duino Elegies written by Rainer Maria Rilke and published by Daimon. This book was released on 2012-04-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Duino Elegies are one of the twentieth century's great works of art. In the space of ten elegies, presented here in a bilingual edition, an impassioned monologue struggles to find an individual answer to what it means to be human in a world torn by modern consciousness. In his introduction, David Oswald writes, "Rilke's poetry shows an unusual sensitivity to inner experience and to the symbolic processes of the psyche, two things that are important to me in my work as a Jungian analyst. His carefully crafted language conveys the movements of this otherwise 'unsayable' realm and addresses the issues of finding the proper relationship to it. My goal has been to create a translation that preserves this sensitivity and precision... What are we? The Elegies seek a measure of humanness that is positive in form, one that goes beyond the painful recognition that we are neither totally natural in the way that animals are, nor totally transcendent as angels are. The emphasis on 'are' comes from the despair over the split of consciousness that hangs us 'between current and stone,' between the flow of our inner experience and the rigidity of our interpreted world, thus making it impossible for us to be 'something one' or something that remains constant. To be an 'I' means to be constantly caught between the polarities of the night and the day world, of animal and angel, of man and woman, of sexuality and spirituality, of hero and lover, of inner and outer world, of life and death, and never to be at one with any of it. The Duino Elegies do not overcome or eliminate this lament, but the cycle tries to give meaning to the split by giving consciousness a direction towards 'the open.'" David Oswald (b. 1953) is finishing his training in analytical psychology at the C.G. Jung Institute in Zürich, Switzerland, where he has been living for the past eight years. Raised in Owatonna, Minnesota, he has degrees in German from the University of Kansas and Mathematics from the University of Minnesota. "Among the English translations of Rilke's Duineser Elegien that I am familiar with, the one by David Oswald seems to me to be the best. Not only does it faithfully reproduce the content of the original poems - something which earlier translations have managed to do - but also, through its closely matching rhythm and its use of an often bold imagery rooted in the spirit of the English language, it conveys their poetic substance as well." - Prof. Jacob Steiner, President of the International Rilke Society
Book Synopsis Duino Elegies, Bilingual Edition by : Rainer Maria Rilke
Download or read book Duino Elegies, Bilingual Edition written by Rainer Maria Rilke and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1961 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rilke considered the Elegies his greatest achievement. Begun in 1912 at the castle of Duino near Trieste, these ten Elegies were finally completed after a decade of sporadic and protracted creation, in the winter of 1922. They are part of the same creative vein from which erupted, spontaneously and in far briefer time, the Sonnets to Orpheus. As MacIntyre suggests, these elegies "indubitably . . . will take their place among the great and unforgettable poetry of the world." They have already been singled out critically as "the most impresive sequence of great poetry in modern European literature." In this compact volume, the German original text is printed face to face with the translations.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge History of German Literature by : Helen Watanabe-O'Kelly
Download or read book The Cambridge History of German Literature written by Helen Watanabe-O'Kelly and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-06-12 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to describe German literary history up to the unification of Germany in 1990. It takes a fresh look at the main authors and movements, and also asks what Germans in a given period were actually reading and writing, what they would have seen at the local theatre or found in the local lending library; it includes, for example, discussions of literature in Latin as well as in German, eighteenth-century letters and popular novels, Nazi literature and radio plays, and modern Swiss and Austrian literature. A new prominence is given to writing by women. Contributors, all leading scholars in their field, have re-examined standard judgements in writing a history for our own times. The book is designed for the general reader as well as the advanced student: titles and quotations are translated, and there is a comprehensive bibliography.

Book Synopsis Duineser Elegien by : Rainer Maria Rilke
Download or read book Duineser Elegien written by Rainer Maria Rilke and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zehn lange Jahre hat Rilke gebraucht, um seine 'Duineser Elegien' abzuschließen , die, wie er selber behauptete, kein Werk waren, das allein vom Autor erschaffen wird, sondern als Frucht höherer Eingebung entstanden, auf die der Autor lange warten mußte. In 853 Zeilen schreibt Rilke eine Weltanschauung nieder, in der der Mensch sein gegenwärtiges Leben sinnvoll zu leben bemüht ist, und bewußt der Freude wie dem Leid entgegengeht - mit dem Willen nach seelischer Integrität. Die 10 Elegien sprechen in Bildern, sei es durch den Gebrauch einer visionären Sprache, die auch aus der Auseinandersetzung Rilkes mit dem Frühexpressionismus her rührt - sei es durch das Auftauchen von Idealfiguren - der Engel, das Kind, der Held, die Liebenden, die Heiligen, die früh Verstorbenen.

Book Synopsis The Spiritual Dimension by : John Cottingham
Download or read book The Spiritual Dimension written by John Cottingham and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-09-15 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spiritual Dimension offers a new model for the philosophy of religion, bringing together emotional and intellectual aspects of our human experience, and embracing practical as well as theoretical concerns. It shows how a religious worldview is best understood not as an isolated set of doctrines, but as intimately related to spiritual praxis and to the search for self-understanding and moral growth. It argues that the religious quest requires a certain emotional openness, but can be pursued without sacrificing our philosophical integrity. Touching on many important debates in contemporary philosophy and theology, but accessible to general readers, The Spiritual Dimension covers a range of central topics in the philosophy of religion, including scientific cosmology and the problem of evil; ethical theory and the objectivity of goodness; psychoanalytic thought, self-discovery and virtue; the multi-layered nature of religious discourse; and the relation between faith and evidence.
