Abstract

Rilke’s dialogue with Italian art is still a chapter to be written within the history of his poetry. Since his verses do not explicitly refer to the masterpieces of Italian art with that frequency and visionary depth characterizing their attention to French and German and Spanish art, very few critical attempts have been devoted to the secret presence of Italian art in Rilke’s poetry, most of them merely focusing on the early poetic experience of Das Florenzer Tagebuch.
