Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Rainer Maria Rilke's collection of 55 sonnets emerged during a profound creative surge in 1922, spurred by the death of a close friend's daughter. Infused with mythological and biblical references, these sonnets reflect Rilke's emotional turmoil following World War I and his earlier struggles with the "Duino Elegies." The intense spirituality and exploration of beauty and existential suffering in these works solidify Rilke's status as a preeminent figure in German poetry. This edition features premium acid-free paper.
