There are ten letters written to a young man about to enter the German military.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rainer Maria Rilke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1645604306\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781645604303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Eagle Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.28d","brand":"Rainer Maria Rilke","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44311488594175,"sku":"9781645604303","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9f69673f-20e5-4e65-9b7c-339f8a8c9bf6.jpg?v=1695723045","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/letter-to-a-young-poet-rainer-maria-rilke-9781645604303","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
