Printemps enchanté
La dizaine de récits et nouvelles que comprend ce recueil sont des textes de jeunesse, écrits de 1895 à 1898, alors que Rilke n'avait que 20 ans. Il n'a encore publié qu'un seul recueil de poèmes ("Vie et chansons" en 1894), mais c'est une période cruciale, car c'est celle de sa rencontre avec Lou Andreas-Salomé. C'est aussi le moment où il quitte Prague pour se lancer dans de nombreux voyages à travers l'Europe. On trouve dans ces nouvelles une relation intime, presque panthéiste à la nature, une évocation de l'amour qui, au-delà de la rencontre entre deux êtres, touche déjà à l'universel.

About the author
Rainer Maria Rilke
1,846 books7,023 followersA mystic lyricism and precise imagery often marked verse of German poet Rainer Maria Rilke, whose collections profoundly influenced 20th-century German literature and include
The Book of Hours
(1905) and
The Duino Elegies
(1923).
People consider him of the greatest 20th century users of the language.
His haunting images tend to focus on the difficulty of communion with the ineffable in an age of disbelief, solitude, and profound anxiety — themes that tend to position him as a transitional figure between the traditional and the modernist poets.
His two most famous sequences include the Sonnets to Orpheus , and his most famous prose works include the Letters to a Young Poet and the semi-autobiographical The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge .
He also wrote more than four hundred poems in French, dedicated to the canton of Valais in Switzerland, his homeland of choice.

J'ai toujours aimé la subtilité de Rilke. Ca m'a fait un bien énorme de le relire, même si brièvement.
