The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge

The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge
A masterly new translation of one of the first great modernist novels In the only novel by one of the German language’s greatest poets, a young man named Malte Laurids Brigge lives in a cheap room in Paris while his belongings rot in storage. Every person he sees seems to carry their death with them, and with little but a library card to distinguish him from the city’s untouchables, he thinks of the deaths, and ghosts, of his aristocratic family, of which he is the sole living descendant. Suffused with passages of lyrical brilliance, Rilke’s semi-autobiographical novel is a moving and powerful coming-of-age story.

Auguste Rodin (Lives of the Artists series)


Near the end of his life, the master sculptor Auguste Rodin (1840Â?1917) hired the poet Rainer Maria Rilke to serve as his secretary. Intensely sensitive to art and able to express this awareness in prose of great lyricism and clarity, in 1903 Rilke published a profound meditation on the unique power of Rodinâ??s sculpture. Written around a chronology of Rodinâ??s work, it is also an introduction to some of the greatest sculpture of the 19th century. A translation was soon produced by the American poet and artist Jessie Lemont. Unavailable for many years, this translation is reprinted here together with Rilkeâ??s original illustrations.

Rainer Maria Rilke (Spanish Edition)


Este libro es una biografia elegiaca del poeta, en el que Rilke habla a traves de sus cartas, enlazadas artesanalmente por la autora. Se trata de un poeta que parte en busca de su propia voz, su si mismo, en una enconada lucha con su propia naturaleza. Lou Andreas-Salome muestra el reves de la trama de la creacion, el riesgo vital que supone encontrar al poeta en cada uno de nosotros y, a la vez, el poder salvador que entrana. En un mundo que enfrenta el peligro ya vaticinado por Nietzsche de que los sentimientos se vean aplastados por la razon, Rilke se revela aqui como el poeta que acepto ese desafio, que el mismo vivio en una dramatica lucha cuerpo-alma. Lou Andreas-Salome (San Petersburgo 1861-Gotinga 1937) se inicio como novelista pero, tras su decisivo encuentro con Nietzsche, y mas tarde con Freud, se volco al ensayo filosofico y al psicoanalisis. Entre sus obras se destacan Federico Nietzsche en su obra (1894) y su autobiografia Mirada retrospectiva (1951, postuma) que apoya su perfil de espiritu libre. Se caso con el filologo Karl Andreas, y mantuvo una larga relacion sentimental y de amistad con Rainer Maria Rilke, hasta la muerte del poeta.
