Praising, thats it! he declares; nature,<br />art, love, time, childhood, technology, poverty, justice -<br />all are encompassed in poems that spark with insight<br />and invention, among the most joyful and light-footed<br />that Rilke ever wrote.</p><p>All poetry resists translation, and one poem may have many different versions in another language; what I look for first is clarity, and this version supplies that generously. With the presence of the German text and Crucefixs helpful notes, the English-speaking reader with little or no German will find in this version a welcoming entrance to the path which leads eventually to a full understanding - if a full understanding of this mysterious poetry is ever possible. Crucefixs translation will have, and keep, a place on my shelves where all the poetry lives.<br />Philip Pullman</p>...3901015Sonnets to Orpheus193193https://www.gandhi.com.mx/sonnets-to-orpheus-9781907587368/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2532622/294660dc-acbd-4289-866a-7a380d8a26cc.jpg?v=638384104422400000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20139781907587368_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9781907587368_<p>Translated by Martyn Crucefix</p><p>In 55 sonnets Rainer Maria Rilke plays an astonishing<br />set of philosophical and sensual variations on the<br />Orpheus myth.
