A Fine tight copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. After nearly a lifetime of reading Rilke in English, William Gass undertook the task of translating Rilke s writing in order to see if he could, in that way, get closer to the work he so deeply admired. With Gass s own background in philosophy, it seemed natural to begin with the Duino Elegies, the poems in which Rilke s ideas are most fully expressed and which as a group are important not only as one of the supreme poetic achievements of the West but also because of the way in which they came to be written in a storm of inspiration. Gass examines the genesis of the ideas that inform the Elegies and discusses previous translations.
