Translated by Edward Snow Winner of the Harold Morton Landon Translation Award. Rilke"s move to Paris in 1902 and his close association with Rodin led him in a new direction in his poetry. Between 1906 and 1908 he produced a torrent of brilliant work that he published in two volumes under the title Neue Gedichte: "New Poems." As translator Edward Snow writes, these books "together constitute one of the great instances of the lyric quest for objective experience."
