Rilke’s French Poems in German—A New, Previously Unpublished Translation
One hundred years after they were written, German-speaking readers finally have full access to Rainer Maria Rilke’s work. As early as 1921, Rilke developed a passion for the French language and translated Paul Valéry. The following year, he took the plunge and began writing poems in French. Until now, only a few poems had been translated into German, his primary writing language. Christoph König’s new translation allows German-speaking audiences to discover a whole new, previously unknown aspect of Rilke’s work.Program:Book presentation by Christoph König. Professor Emeritus at the University of Osnabrück, translator. Reading of a selection of poems in the original French and German translation by Christoph König and Fanny Audeoud. Joint discussion on the challenges of translating a French poem by Rilke, led by the Rilke Foundation’s management team. Reception Event duration: 1 hour. Event language: German, with readings in French. The event will be bilingual (French/German).
