Sonnets to Orpheus

Autor Rainer Maria Rilke Traducere de Mark S. Burrows
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 iun 2024
The fifty-five Sonnets to Orpheus were written by Rilke in February 1922, in less than two weeks. Their central themes are Orpheus and his song of praise; what is sung is "Dasein", "being- here", the presence in the world. Rilke considered as a betrayal of his poetry any translation that would not reproduce, together with his thinking, his internal movement, his rhythm, his rhymes, his music. The goal of the translator has been to make that orchestration "heard" as much as possible, to try and reproduce the structure, rhyme and rhythm, of Rilke's Sonnets, in order for these translations to sound as echoes of the originals.

Notă biografică

After a decade of university teaching in Germany, and four decades as scholar and teacher in the US and Europe, the focus of Mark S. Burrows’ work explores the intersection of spirituality and the arts, mysticism and poetics. He travels widely throughout the US, Europe, and the UK, lecturing and offering retreats and workshops.
As a poet, he writes with what Jay Parini recently described as “a profound awareness of nature and its spiritual resonances.” His recent collection, The Chance of Home: Poems, appeared in 2018. A winner of the Wytter Bynner Prize in Poetry and numerous nominations for a Pushcart Prize, his poems have appeared in more than 30 journals in the US, Europe, Australia, and India. He also edits poetry for the academic journal Spiritus and for the professional journal ARTS.
As a translator of German writings into English, his long interest in Rainer Maria Rilke led to the publication, in 2012, of the first version of Book of Hours, a collection Rilke first named simply Die Gebete, or The Prayers; Burrows published this collection, which includes many of Rilke’s best-known poems, in its first English translation as Prayers of a Young Poet (2013).
Burrows’ coauthored books of Meister Eckhart poems with Jon M. Sweeney have sold well since first appearing in 2017. The most recent of these is Meister Eckhart’s Book of Darkness and Light (March 2023).
