Sinopsis

'Letters To A Young Poet' by Rainer Maria Rilke is a prosaic work, but it refers directly to poetry. There are ten letters written to a young man about to enter the German military.In the very beginning of the 1903, Rilke received a letter from a twenty-year old lieutenant of Austro-Hungarian army Franz Kappus. Verses were enclosed to the letter: the lieutenant turned out to be a poet. Rilke answered. Rilke wrote Franz Kappus ten letters, the last of them is dated by December 1908. After Rilke?s death, the letters were published in a separate book entitled 'Letters To A Young Poet'. Of all Rilke?s extensive correspondence, these letters won the greatest popularity. It is explained by their content: there is nothing personal or private in them, Rilke wrote about the poetry, nature of poetic works, irony, loneliness, love etc. His philosophy-aesthetic views of that time are well reflected in these letters.
