In this Companion, leading scholars offer informative and thought-provoking essays on his life and social context, his correspondence, all his major collections of poetry including most famously the Duino Elegies and Sonnets to Orpheus, and his seminal novel of Modernist anxiety, The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge. Rilke's critical contexts are explored in detail: his relationship with philosophy and the visual arts, his place within modernism and his relationship to European literature, and his reception in Europe and beyond. With its invaluable guide to further reading and a chronology of Rilke's life and work, this Companion will provide an accessible, engaging account of this extraordinary poet whose legacy looms so Rilke, Rainer Maria, -- 1875-1926 -- Criticism and interpretation Criticism and interpretation Rilke, rainer maria, 1875-1926 German poetry, history and criticism 633266 633266 0 0 0 0 ACL ACL GEN 2026-09-27 0 831.912 LEE 239198 2026-09-27 16:19:51 2026-09-27 BK
