Mentre i suoi vecchi mobili marciscono in magazzino, Malte Laurids Brigge vive in una stanza economica a Parigi, con poco più di una tessera di biblioteca a distinguerlo dagli intoccabili della città. Ogni persona che vede sembra portare con sé la propria morte, e pensa alle morti e ai fantasmi della sua famiglia aristocratica, di cui solo lui è rimasto. Unico romanzo di uno dei più grandi poeti tedeschi, i Quaderni semi-autobiografici sono un libro inquieto, avvincente e poetico che ha anticipato Sartre ed è pieno di passaggi di brillantezza lirica. La nuova traduzione di Michael Hulse trasmette perfettamente la bellezza inquietante dell'originale ed è accompagnata da un'introduzione sulla vita di Rilke e sulle influenze biografiche e letterarie sui Quaderni. Questa edizione include anche letture consigliate, una cronologia e note.

Rainer Maria Rilke was born in Prague in 1875 and died in Valmont, Montreux, in 1926. Throughout his life he travelled restlessly around Europe, meeting Tolstoy in Russia (1900), working as ‘secretary’ to Rodin in Paris (1905–6), enjoying some aristocratic hospitality (especially at Castle Duino, near Trieste, as guest of Marie von Thurn und Taxis, between 1910 and 1914), working as a clerk in Austria during the war, but finally settling at the Château de Muzot, Valais, after 1922.
The turning-points in his career are the Neue Gedichte ("New Poems") of 1907–8, together with the journal-novel of the same period, Die Aufzeichnungen des Malte Laurids Brigge (1910); and Duineser Elegeien and Die Soneete an Orpheus of 1922. His final interest was Paul Valéry whose poems, Charmes, he translated in 1925 and imitated in his own Poèmes français.
Michael Hulse was born in Stoke-on-Trent in 1955 and studied at the University of St Andrews. Since 1977 he has taught at the Universities of Erlangen, Eichstätt and Cologne in West Germany, and has spent periods working as a freelance writer. His most recent translations include Prison Journal by Luise Rinser (Penguin 1988) and Paris Diaries by Ernst Jünger. He has also published several collections of poems: Monochrome Blood, Dole Queue, Knowing and Forgetting, and Propaganda and has won numerous awards.

Paperback. Condizione: New. While his old furniture rots in storage, Malte Laurids Brigge lives in a cheap room in Paris, with little but a library reader's card to distinguish him from the city's untouchables. Every person he sees seems to carry their death with them, and he thinks of the deaths, and ghosts, of his aristocratic family, of which only he remains. The only novel by one of the greatest writers of poetry in German, the semi-autobiographical Notebooks is an uneasy, compelling and poetic book that anticipated Sartre and is full of passages of lyrical brilliance.Michael Hulse's new translation perfectly conveys the unsettling beauty of the original and is accompanied by an introduction on Rilke's life and the biographical and literary influences on the Notebooks. This edition also includes suggested further reading, a chronology and notes. Codice articolo LU-9780141182216
