Autorenporträt
Born in Prague, Rainer Maria Rilke, the renowned German language poet (1875-1926), was fluent in several languages and wrote 400 poems originally in French. The Roses are a late-life series manifesting Rilke's contemplation of mortality. One of these French poems (VII of this translation) is clearly resonant in the German phrase used on the poet's tombstone.
