n nWho, if I cried out, would hear me among the angelic norders? and even if one of them pressed me nsuddenly to his heart: Id be consumed nin that overwhelming existence. For beauty is nothing nbut the beginning of terror, which we can just barely endure, nand we stand in awe of it as it coolly disdains nto destroy us. Every angel is terrifying. n-from The First Elegyn nOver the last fifteen years, in his two volumes of New Poems as well as in The Book of Images and Uncollected Poems, Edward Snow has emerged as one of Rainer Maria Rilkes most able English-language interpreters. In his translations, Snow adheres faithfully to the intent of Rilkes German while constructing nuanced, colloquial poems in English. n nWritten in a period of spiritual crisis between 1912 and 1922, the poems that compose the Duino Elegies are the ones most frequently identified with the Rilkean sensibility. With their symbolic landscapes, prophetic proclamations, and unsettling intensity, these complex and haunting poems rank among the outstanding visionary works of the century.n
