Workshop: The Fondation Rilke, in collaboration with the Gianadda Foundation, is offering a bilingual seminar (German/French) led by Prof. Dr. Christoph König. During this one-day event, we will collectively explore how Rilke’s poetry can serve as a tool for understanding Rodin’s works. Prof. König will guide us through our readings of Rilke’s essay on Rodin (1903) and the Ninth Duino Elegy.
