Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) worked for a time as Rodin's secretary. The sculptor's example lies behind the new bias of his poems of 1907-8. Neue Gedichte is his most accessible work.

About the book >.>.> So Wordsworth had written. But no one could say that Rilke's heart lived alone. He was indeed a Santa Claus, bringing to himself and to his readers the wonderfully and meticulously tentative feeling for things, the exploration of things, of which his poetry has the secret. And never more so than in the two parts of the Neue Gedichte, the poems in which Rilke's peculiar genius first unmistakably showed itself. His own kind of solitude was, indeed, the condition for the creation of Rilke's art. Out of that solitary condition he brings us a unique social and shared offering. In a very special sense he seems to live with us as sentient and sensitive human beings in his own kind of intimacy, as if 'the things' blessed us as well as him. The inwardness, the belonging togetherness of this (in German the Zusammengeh?rigkeitsgef?hl) has special quality which irritates some readers and perhaps particularly irritates other and different kinds of poet. 'Rilke was a jerk', wrote John Berryman in one of his Dream Songs. Seller Inventory # Batch-FM330-VG-8045
