From the Dust Jacket: "In 1908, Rainer Maria Rilke wrote his REQUIEM FOR A FRIEND in memory of Paula Modersohn-Becker, the German painter who had a profound effect on him, both personally and artistically, and who had died a year earlier. Modersohn-Becker, despite being one of the great modern painters, is today remembered primarily as she is portrayed in that poem. In DEAR FRIEND, Eric Torgersen looks at the relationship of these two great artists whose vexed seven-year friendship was extraordinarily productive for both, and offers an introduction to the life and work of Modersohn-Becker… Torgersen's portrait begins by retracing the path that leads the two young people to the artists' colony at Worpswede in 1900, where Rilke meets and becomes fascinated with Paula Becker. He recounts Rilke's disarray upon learning Becker is already engaged to the painter Otto Modersohn; Rilke's sudden marriage to Modersohn-Becker's dearest friend, the sculptor Clara Westhoff; and Modersohn-Becker's pain and anger at the effect this marriage has on her friend and on their friendship. The book then follows Rilke and Modersohn-Becker through their years of estrangement and conflict over the competing claims of art and life… Included in the book are sixteen illustrations as new translations by Torgersen of REQUIEM FOR A FRIEND and of the love poems Rilke wrote for Becker shortly after they met. Torgersen discusses Modersohn-Becker's major paintings, including her unfinished portrait of Rilke. He quotes extensively from the letters and journals of both figures, translating many of Rilke's into English for the first time. Finally, Torgersen addresses the unanswered question of whether the two were ever lovers, and offers new insights into Rilke's writing of REQUIEM FOR A FRIEND.". First Printing of the First Edition.
