This study investigates Rilke's rose lyrics within the context of traditional rose poetry originating in the Scriptures, Greek, Latin, medieval and romantic poetry. Because roses in literature are invariably relegated to the realm of symbols, the work begins with an analysis of symbols and metaphors in their fundamental relationship. Whereas the symbolic rose is reduced to a plucked object of possession, the metaphoric rose transcends this negation, as is evident in Rilke's last rose poem, the epitaph.

European Heritage of Rose Symbolism and Rose Metaphors in View of Rilke's Epitaph Rose
While this short (80 pages) "Reader's Guide" to Henryk's Sienkiewicz' Trilogy, With Fire and Sword, The Deluge and Fire in the Steppe is by no means essential to understanding or wading your way through the combined 3500 pages of Sienkiewicz's paean to Poland and her people, it is useful for understanding the general challenges of good translation and the author's own struggles with his original American translator. My only complaint is that I suspect each of the little sections could really have been expanded into much more deeply revealing essays. As it is, with the exception of The Art of Translation, they read as mere epilogues or perhaps prologues.
