In 1931, Virginia and Leonard Woolf's Hogarth Press published a
small run of a beautiful edition of Rainer Maria Rilke's Duino
Elegies, in English translation by the writers Vita and Edward
Sackville-West. This marked the English debut of Rilke's
masterpiece, which would eventually be rendered in English over 20
times, influencing countless poets, musicians and artists across
the English-speaking world. Published for the first time in 90
years, the Sackville-Wests' translation is both a fascinating
historical document and a magnificent blank-verse rendering of
Rilke's poetry cycle. Featuring a new introduction from critic
Lesley Chamberlain, this reissue casts one of European literature's
great masterpieces in fresh light.
