Rilke und Rosen

Inleiding
Introduction, Reading, and Discussion with Philosopher Brigitte Hilmer
Rilke’s gravestone bears an enigmatic verse about roses, similar to a Japanese haiku (short poem). Roses are a recurring symbol, theme, and medium in Rilke’s poetry—a lifelong theme, not only in his literary work. In the end, he tended and enjoyed over a hundred rosebushes in his garden in Muzot. He took the symbolism we know to the extreme: love, women, mysticism… but in his hands, the rose became so much more: it unfolds and conceals the infinite layers of our existence and, like a book, reveals what a poem is capable of, all while exuding its fragrance.We reflect on the epitaph and listen to and contemplate together some of Rilke’s rose poems
