Today's poem is Refusing Rilke's "You must change your life" by Remica Bingham-Risher.The Slowdown is currently taking a break. We'll be back soon with new episodes from a new host. This week, we're revisiting some favorites from Major Jackson's time as host. Today's episode was originally released on July 24, 2024. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “I live with Rilke's famous line, “You must change your life,” in my ear on repeat, an earworm, as if something is less than stellar about who I am today. I move instinctively towards myself as though I were a massive project, believing I will someday, again in Rilke's words, “burst like a star.” That this is how to be seen, to be loved, to be cherished. This quest has distorted my sense of what is important, sown constant dissatisfaction, and emotional states of being that pose health risks. Pursuing perfection has, at times, alienated me from those I hold dear. Not that I don't love them or they me — but that I get tunnel vision in seeking some heroic terminus.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

She may be able to quit cartooning (for a while), but Keiler Roberts can't quit The Virtual Memories Show! With her wonderful new book, PREPARING TO BITE (Drawn & Quarterly), Keiler returns to comics with a collection of (mostly) hilarious vignettes about domestic life, middle-age, the impact of multiple sclerosis, and having too many pets. We talk about why she walked away from comics and how she came back, how she avoids memoir in favor of memory (and humor), how she still has anxiety over drawing but is way too tired to have social anxiety anymore, and why she branched into kitschy craft-modes that no one would mistake for art. We get into why she wants her kid to read her journals when she's gone, how MS taught her how to be bored, how men have no idea what perimenopause is like, what it means to be the best appointment of her doctors' day, and the reward of teaching comics to her friends and her mom. We also discuss how Karl Stevens helped her back into comics with this book (& encourages her in every other artistic idea she has), how weird it is to see two of Karl's super-detailed pages beside her sparse drawings in Preparing To Bite, and why she loved collaborating with her brother on the grownup fairytale Creepy. Plus, she teaches me the difference between living more and doing more, and I read you guys a Rilke poem in the intro.

A poem from Rilke converses with the Hindu aesthetic system of rasa.A good book about rasa.Rilke's full poem:The Man WatchingBy Rainer Maria RilkeI can tell by the way the trees beat, afterso many dull days, on my worried windowpanesthat a storm is coming,and I hear the far-off fields say thingsI can't bear without a friend,I can't love without a sister.The storm, the shifter of shapes, drives onacross the woods and across time,and the world looks as if it had no age:the landscape, like a line in the psalm book,is seriousness and weight and eternity.What we choose to fight is so tiny!What fights with us is so great.If only we would let ourselves be dominatedas things do by some immense storm,we would become strong too, and not need names.When we win it's with small things,and the triumph itself makes us small.What is extraordinary and eternaldoes not want to be bent by us.I mean the Angel who appearedto the wrestlers of the Old Testament:when the wrestlers' sinewsgrew long like metal strings,he felt them under his fingerslike chords of deep music.Whoever was beaten by this Angel(who often simply declined the fight)went away proud and strengthenedand great from that harsh hand,that kneaded him as if to change his shape.Winning does not tempt that man.This is how he grows: by being defeated, decisively,by constantly greater beings.–Translated by Robert BlyFree Story & Media ConsultationComment and Subscribe here This is a public episode.

What happens when we trace the unexpected influences between seemingly unrelated poetic traditions? In this exploration of German poetry's impact on American counterculture, we discover the fascinating connections between renowned German-language poets Rainer Maria Rilke and Paul Salon with Cleveland's underground literary icon DA Levy.Levy, a Cleveland poet and publisher active in the 1960s who faced obscenity trials and ultimately committed suicide, created work that resonates with Rilke's mystical poetics in surprising ways. Both poets use angels not as mere symbols but as modes of address to readers – inviting us into a space where beauty and terror coexist, where mortality is acknowledged as the very thing that gives life its meaning.As we examine Rilke's "Requiem for a Friend" alongside his more famous Duino Elegies, we see how his approach to mythology established patterns that would later emerge in Levy's work, despite their vastly different cultural contexts. The conversation expands to include translation theory, with insights from contemporary translators Pierre Joris and Johannes Göransson who understand translation not as equivalence but as transformation – every act of writing being itself a translation of experience into language.We also examine how Levy's Buddhist influences connect him more meaningfully to Gary Snyder than to the Beat poets with whom he's often categorized, revealing the complexity of his literary lineage. From Federico García Lorca's concept of duende to the rich ethnic diversity of Cleveland's literary scene, this discussion illuminates how poetry transcends borders while remaining deeply rooted in specific geographies and experiences.Have you discovered DA Levy yet? His work, much of it being republished through Between the Highway Press, offers a portal into a uniquely American poetic vision that draws from international traditions while speaking directly to readers with urgent, transformative power.Links mentioned in the video: https://periodicityjournal.blogspot.com/2025/01/alexander-hammond-benedict-from.html?m=1https://rilkepoetry.com/duino-elegies/first-duino-elegy/http://homestar.org/bryannan/duino.htmlhttps://herhalfofhistory.com/2023/07/13/requiem-for-paula-modersohn-becker-by-rainer-maria-rilke/https://abovegroundpress.blogspot.com/2024/10/new-from-aboveground-press-fragments-of.htmlhttps://betweenthehighway.org/Send us a text Musis by Bitterlake, Used with Permission, all rights to BitterlakeSupport the showCrew:Host: C.

What if the key to growth isn't finding better answers, but asking better questions? In this episode, Elizabeth Weingarten shares insights from her book How to Fall in Love with Questions, exploring how embracing uncertainty can lead to greater self-awareness, resilience, and connection. Blending personal stories, behavioral science, and wisdom from poet Rilke, she introduces the idea of a “questions practice” — a mindset shift that helps us navigate life's toughest moments with curiosity and clarity.  ©2025 Behavioral Grooves Topics [0:00] Intro and Speed Round with Elizabeth Weingarten [11:04] The Power of Loving Questions [15:50] The Biological Need for Certainty [21:48] The Role of Patience in Asking Questions [39:18] Questions and the Role of Behavioral Science [47:57] Desert Island Music [50:38] Grooving Session: The Value of Sitting With Questions ©2025 Behavioral Grooves Links More About Elizabeth Better Life Lab How to Fall in Love with Questions Torch Leadership Join the Behavioral Grooves community Music Links Steely Dan - Do It Again Chapell Roan - Pink Pony Club

Engelstexte voller Überraschungen hält die aktuelle Folgedes Lyrikpodcast Seelenfutter bereit. Rilkes „Ich ließ meinen Engel lange nicht los“ verkehrt die traditionellen Zuschreibungen von Dominanz und Verfügbarkeit: Der Engel muss erst freigelassen werden, ehe er das Schweben lernen und frei werden kann. Ein gegenseitiger Prozess von Mensch und Engel. Dazu stellen Susanne Garsoffky und Friedemann Magaard „fliegen“ von Doris Runge, ein Gedicht aus der Perspektive eines Wesens, das nicht mehr fliegen kann, aus Gründen. Von Freiheit und Bindung. Dazu gibt es Psalmworte.

Spoštovani, namesto voščila 'dobrega jutra' vas že zdaj vabim, da naredite načrt za sprehod današnjega dne. In ne pojdite že zdaj, na vse zgodaj, ko so ulice še prazne, ko ni še nikjer nikogar in ko je še vse zaprto. Malo počakajte, da se ceste napolnijo. Takrat pojdite po uhojenih poteh, ki ste jih vajeni. »Le kaj mi bo tak sprehod prinesel, poznam vsak vogal in vsako stvar, ki jo srečam na poti. Tujci, ki gredo mimo, me pa ne zanimajo,« mi boste odvrnili. Res je, nič ne bo bistveno novega na vašem sprehodu. Hiše, drevesa, lokali, morda celo ljudje bodo isti kot včeraj, isti, kot so bili pred tednom ali mesecem. Nič novega na tem mojem malem svetu, bi lahko še dodali. K temu bi lahko kot dokaz za to pripisali še željo mnogih, da potujejo v najbolj tuje kraje, da bi se naužili vsega novega, drugačnega, posebnega. Saj ne rečem, da ni zanimivo poslušati o teh tujih krajih, da nas ne vleče v neznano, toda danes vas vabim na poseben sprehod. Ta nas ne bo stal veliko, le nekaj časa si moramo vzeti. Predvsem pa moramo hoditi bolj kot le z odprtimi očmi z odprto mislijo. Ko grem mimo še tako preproste stavbe, na kateri res ne morem najti ne vem kakšne znamenitosti, malo pomislim, kaj vse sem že na poti do nje ali od nje doživel v svojem življenju. Bolj kot, kakšno je drevo, ki raste ob tej stavbi, naj me prevzamejo moji notranji občutki, spomini, sanje, pričakovanja ob tem drevesu. Ne gre, da bi sanjal ob vedno enako mrkem sosedu, ki ga spet srečam na svoji uhojeni poti, da bo pa zdaj postal vir moje sreče. Ne, lahko pa v sebi prebudim hrepenenje, ki ga ta mrkost soseda prebuja. Gotovo se bo moj korak upočasnil, nič več mi to ne bo le stara in uhojena pot. Iz starih spominov se bodo rojevali nove misli, pogledi, pričakovanja, ki nas bodo veliko bolj napolnili kot potovanja v tako ali drugačno Indijo Koromandijo. Kot je zapisal pesnik Rilke, da je treba živeti v sebi in iz sebe ter ob tem imeti pred očmi vse, kar smo doživeli, in vse možnosti, ki so nam dane, da naše življenje ne bo teklo v prazno. Ni treba kupiti letalske karte niti ni treba zapraviti centa, dovolj je spet iti na kratek sprehod s pozornostjo in odprtostjo duha. Spomini, ki se bodo na tej poti prebujali, naj nam odpirajo bogastvo možnosti, ki jih še vedno imamo v življenju. Zato vam za danes želim tisto znano, uhojeno pot, s katere boste prišli polni novih možnosti za življenje.

In der Lesung auf radio3 können Sie zurzeit die "Aufzeichnungen des Malte Laurids Brigge" hören, dem einzigen Roman von Rainer Maria Rilke. Rilke selbst hat nie von einem Roman gesprochen, denn die Aufzeichnungen sind ein fingiertes Tagebuch. Weil die Zeitebenen hin und her springen, ist es mitunter schwer, den Überblick zu behalten. Daher sprechen wir von Zeit zu Zeit mit der Literaturwissenschaftlerin Sandra Richter, die eine echte Rilke-Expertin ist. Heute geht es um den Titelhelden Malte Laurens Brigge.

Paolo Bolpagni"Hammershøi e i pittori del silenzio tra il nord Europa e l'Italia"Palazzo Roverella, Rovigowww.palazzoroverella.comFino al 29 giugno 2025 a Rovigo a Palazzo Roverella si terrà, promossa dalla Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Padova e Rovigo, e curata da Paolo Bolpagni, la prima mostra italiana dedicata a Vilhelm Hammershøi (Copenaghen, 1864-1916), che fu il più grande pittore danese della propria epoca, uno dei geni dell'arte europea tra fine Ottocento e inizio Novecento.Da pochi anni è in atto la sua riscoperta, e da personaggio quasi dimenticato Hammershøi è diventato uno dei più richiesti al mondo: nel mercato le quotazioni hanno raggiunto livelli strabilianti, con aumenti esponenziali osservabili addirittura di mese in mese; e i musei di tutto il globo si stanno contendendo le sue opere per organizzare retrospettive. Nel 2025 quella di Palazzo Roverella sarà non soltanto la prima mostra italiana dedicata al pittore danese, ma l'unica a livello internazionale. Ciò rende davvero eccezionale l'impresa rodigina, che si pone anche l'obiettivo di porre a confronto i capolavori di Hammershøi con opere di importanti artisti a lui contemporanei, con un occhio di riguardo – in tali accostamenti – all'Italia, ai Paesi scandinavi, alla Francia e al Belgio. In effetti ci sono elementi che accomunano gli appartenenti a questa poetica del silenzio, della solitudine, delle vedute cittadine deserte, dei “paesaggi dell'anima”. Però i visitatori scopriranno che in Hammershøi c'è qualcosa di più, di sottilmente inquietante, di angoscioso e forse addirittura di torbido: le sue donne sono ritratte quasi sempre di spalle; gli ambienti domestici, in apparenza ordinati e tranquilli, lasciano in realtà presagire o sospettare drammi segreti, o l'attesa di tragedie incombenti, con un senso claustrofobico.La biografia stessa dell'artista, che viaggiò di frequente (in special modo in Italia, in Inghilterra e nei Paesi Bassi), ma in verità fu un uomo solitario, induce a riflettere su alcuni aspetti enigmatici: pur sposatosi, Hammershøi mantenne un rapporto strettissimo, quasi simbiotico, con la madre, tornando spesso a dormire da lei; la moglie e modella prediletta, Ida Ilsted, fu colpita da una grave malattia mentale; la sua pittura, che ispirerà il grande regista cinematografico Carl Theodor Dreyer, fu definita “nevrastenica”. Ce n'è abbastanza per attendere come un autentico e irripetibile evento la mostra di Palazzo Roverella."Hammershøi e i pittori del silenzio tra il nord Europa e l'Italia"Dario Cimorelli Editorewww.dariocimorellieditore.itIl volume accompagna la prima mostra italiana dedicata a Vilhelm Hammershøi (Copenaghen, 1864-1916), il più grande pittore danese della propria epoca. Protagonista dell'arte europea tra fine Ottocento e inizio Novecento, la sua opera viene messa a confronto con le creazioni degli artisti a lui contemporanei, tra il Nord Europa e l'Italia.Più di 100 opere presentano una pittura raramente indagata quanto misteriosa ed affascinante. Una pittura che racconta il silenzio e l'introspezione, dove gli ambienti domestici così come le vedute cittadine descrivono i paesaggi dell'anima.Ma in Hammershøi c'è qualcosa di più, le sue donne, ritratte quasi sempre di spalle, in ambienti ordinati e tranquilli, lasciano presagire tanto la serenità quanto drammi segreti o piuttosto l'attesa di nuovi accadimenti.Il catalogo è arricchito dai testi critici di Paolo Bolpagni, curatore del volume, Annette Rosenvold Hvidt, Claudia Cieri Via, Luca Esposito e Francesco Parisi.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

In diesem Jahr feiern wir den 150. Geburtstag des Schriftstellers Rainer Maria Rilke. Populär wurde er vor allem als Lyriker, er hat aber auch einen einzigen Roman geschrieben und der läuft derzeit bei uns auf radio3 in der Lesung. In "Die Aufzeichnungen des Malte Laurids Brigge" zeichnet Rilke ein vielschichtiges Bild der beginnenden Moderne. Wir sprechen darüber mit einer absoluten Rilke-Expertin: der Literaturwissenschaftlerin Sandra Richter.

Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.Simone de Beauvoir var livrädd för döden, och försökte livet igenom hålla den på avstånd, så pass att en amerikansk Beauvoirspecialist ägnar en hel bok åt denna systematiska förnekelse. Samtidigt var det bara i dödens absoluta närhet som den skrämmande rationella författaren förvandlades till poet. I romanen De oskiljaktiga beskriver Beauvoir hur hon i sin tidiga ungdom förvirrad står inför en likkista täckt av vita blommor och får för sig att hennes väninna avlidit för att hon kvävts av all denna vithet: ”Innan jag tog tåget”, säger hon, ”lade jag ner tre röda rosor på dessa obefläckade buketter.”Beauvoir avskyr och förnekar döden, hon tror inte på någon högre makt eller liv efter detta och hennes livsåskådning ger henne inga verktyg att behärska rädslan för åldrandet, smärtan och slutet. Konfrontationen dröjer tills hon är femtiofem och hennes mamma drabbas av en svårartad form av cancer med lika hastigt som plågsamt förlopp. Trots motviljan tvingar hon sig att registrera sjukdomsförloppet, och inser snart att det bara finns en enda sak som kan lindra fasan, en enda möjlig befrielse för mamman. Hennes kapitulation inför denna befriande kraft sitter så långt inne och görs så motvilligt att den övertygar just därför: ”I denna kapplöpning mellan smärta och död hoppades vi innerligt att döden skulle hinna först.”Nu kommer Simone de Beauvoirs andra ögonblick av ofrivillig poesi, när hon uttröttad vid mammans dödsbädd plötsligt får se de medeltida dödsdansernas grinande lieman stå vid huvudgärden, grimaserande och hånfull, främmande, omänsklig: ”den hade mammas ansikte då hon blottade sin käke i ett brett, ovetande leende.” Så utrycker hon sig aldrig annars, det finns ingen plats för dubbelexponeringar och tvetydigheter i hennes stränga universum. Den självbiografiska boken Avled stilla från 1964 visar upp en författare som drabbats av ett faktum som inte går att resonera bort.Karakteristiskt nog var hon några år tidigare faktiskt inne på tanken, men bara för att förkasta den: enligt henne var det en reaktionär högertanke att se döden som den enda giltiga sanningen, och som orsak till främlingskap mellan människor eftersom var och en är ensam med sin död: ”Meditation över döden är den yttersta visdomen hos dem som redan är döda”. Det hon formulerar är samurajens och vikingens sinnestillstånd inför stundande strid: sättet att göra sig osårbar var att i förväg betrakta sig som redan död. Döden är enda boten för döden.Och så upptäcker hon motvilligt vid sin mammas dödsbädd att det är alldeles sant.Just mammans dödsbädd blir ett avgörande ögonblick även för den lungsjuke gruvarbetarsonen D.H. Lawrence. Han levde från sexton års ålder med en dödsdom hängande över sig och hade lättare än Beauvoir att göra samurajens ideal till sitt.Bygg ditt dödsskepp, uppmanar han som rena vikingahövdingen: han talar också om modet att rida dödsväga som något vår civilisation borde lära av äldre och våldsammare tider. Människans enda uppgift är att utmana sig själv, att alltid göra det som är svårast: sätta det välkända egna jaget på spel och ge sig ut i det okända. Och något mer okänt än döden går inte att hitta. Genom hela författarskapet återkommer den som utmaning och lockelse av närmast vällustigt slag.Vändpunkten kommer i den självbiografiska romanen Söner och älskare, i skildringen av mammans utdragna dödskamp. Precis som Beauvoir och hennes syster finner syskonen mammans plåga outhärdlig, de står inte ut med att se hennes fåfänga väntan på befrielse. Men till skillnad från systrarna Beauvoir skrider syskonen i Söner och älskare till handling. Efter flera dygns vaka fattar de beslutet – det sker ordlöst, genom ett utbyte av blickar – att skynda på processen, och i ett tillstånd av febrig upphetsning mosar de skrattande hela förrådet av smärtstillande morfinpiller och rör ut i mammans kvällsmugg med varm mjölk. Döden som kärlekshandling: samma kärlekshandling som Beauvoir och hennes syster pratar om att visa modern men till sist inte vågar utföra.Den avgörande skillnaden kanske beror på Lawrences upplevelse av det första samlaget, skildrad tidigare i samma roman: ”För honom tycktes livet nu som en skugga, dagen som en vit skugga, natten och döden och stillheten och orörligheten, detta tycktes som VARAT. Att leva, att vara envis och framhärdande – det var ICKE-VARA. Det högsta av allt var att smälta bort i mörkret och vaja där, identifierad med det stora Varat.”Den gängse bilden av vitalisten och sexprofeten som dansar naken i regnet med blommor i sitt hår är alltså otillräcklig: att sexualiteten är så viktig för Lawrence, beror på att den är ett intimt förbund som den enskilda varelsen ingår med döden, inte med livet. Matadoren smeker och förför tjuren, det han lockar med är döden och det som gör honom oemotståndlig för kvinnor är inte hans seger över döden utan tvärtom att han innebär ett löfte om döden. Döden annonseras som ett glädjebesked, en frestelse, en njutning: ”Det måste vara ljuvligt att vara död.”Söner och älskare utkom redan 1913, innan det första världskriget föste bort alla andra ämnen än döden från den litterära dagordningen. Skyttegravarnas anonyma massdöd väckte Lawrences synnerliga avsky. Som pacifist var han tämligen originell, grälsjuk, våldsförhärligande och dödsfixerad: han motsatte sig kriget eftersom det berövade människan att göra döden till något unikt och personligt, existensens absoluta höjdpunkt.Poeten Rainer Maria Rilke fördömde kriget av samma skäl: det berövade människan hennes rätt till en individuell död. Genom författarskapet stryker Rilke trånsjukt kring döden, som för honom är människolivets själva fullbordan, en sluss till något större snarare än ett slut. Ingen läsare kan glömma de avlidnas trevande händer under matsalsbordet i Malte Laurids Brigge, och i Duinoelegierna formuleras tron på det hinsides som rena rymdäventyret: ”O att en gång vara död och oändligt omfatta dem, / alla stjärnorna”.Det är ett misstag att betona skillnaden mellan liv och död, säger Rilke: möjligen är döden lite rymligare. Lawrence uttrycker samma erfarenhet vid mammans dödsbädd. Tiden försvinner, bara rummet är kvar. Vem kan säga att hans mor inte längre lever? ”Hon hade varit på en plats och befann sig nu på en annan, det var allt.” Så långt kommer aldrig Beauvoir, hennes föreställningsvärld har inte utrymme för någon annan plats. Hon skyr dödens ensamhet lika mycket som Lawrence och Rilke vill omfamna den. Men till slut är det ändå bara den hon hoppas på.Kristoffer Leandoerförfattare, översättare och kritiker

Rilke, seine 150 Jahre und ich – Nach fünfzig Jahren sehen sie sich wieder. Corinna Diestelkamp erzählt Lebensgeschichten, die Mut machen, nimmt mit Rainer Maria Rilke wachsende Lebensringe wahr.

“Art is a form of prayer … a way to enter into relationship.”Artist and theologian Bruce Herman reflects on the sacred vocation of making, resisting consumerism, and the divine invitation to become co-creators. From Mark Rothko to Rainer Maria Rilke, to Andres Serrano's “Piss Christ” and T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets, he comments on the holy risk of artmaking and the sacred fire of creative origination.Together with Evan Rosa, Bruce Herman explores the divine vocation of art making as resistance to consumer culture and passive living. In this deeply poetic and wide-ranging conversation—and drawing from his book *Makers by Nature—*he invites us into a vision of art not as individual genius or commodity, but as service, dialogue, and co-creation rooted in love, not fear. They touch on ancient questions of human identity and desire, the creative implications of being made in the image of God, Buber's I and Thou, the scandal of the cross, Eliot's divine fire, Rothko's melancholy ecstasy, and how even making a loaf of bread can be a form of holy protest. A profound reflection on what it means to be human, and how we might change our lives—through beauty, vulnerability, and relational making.Episode Highlights“We are made by a Maker to be makers.”“ I think hope is being stolen from us Surreptitiously moment by moment hour by hour day by day.”“There is no them. There is only us.”“The work itself has a life of its own.”“Art that serves a community.”“You must change your life.” —Rilke, recited by Bruce Herman in reflection on the transformative power of art.“When we're not making something, we're not whole. We're not healthy.”“Making art is a form of prayer. It's a form of entering into relationship.”“Art is not for the artist—any more than it's for anyone else. The work stands apart. It has its own voice.”“We're not merely consumers—we're made by a Maker to be makers.”“The ultimate act of art is hospitality.”Topics and ThemesHuman beings are born to create and make meaningArt as theological dialogue and spiritual resistanceCreative practice as a form of love and worshipChristian art and culture in dialogue with contemporary issuesPassive consumption vs. active creationHow to engage with provocative art faithfullyThe role of beauty, mystery, and risk in the creative processArt that changes you spiritually, emotionally, and intellectuallyThe sacred vocation of the artist in a consumerist worldHow poetry and painting open up divine encounter, particularly in Rainer Maria Rilke's “Archaic Torso of Apollo”Four Quartets and spiritual longing in modern poetryHospitality, submission, and service as aesthetic posturesModern culture's sickness and art as medicineEncountering the cross through contemporary artistic imagination“Archaic Torso of Apollo”Rainer Maria Rilke 1875 –1926We cannot know his legendary head with eyes like ripening fruit. And yet his torso is still suffused with brilliance from inside, like a lamp, in which his gaze, now turned to low, gleams in all its power. Otherwise the curved breast could not dazzle you so, nor could a smile run through the placid hips and thighs to that dark center where procreation flared. Otherwise this stone would seem defaced beneath the translucent cascade of the shoulders and would not glisten like a wild beast's fur: would not, from all the borders of itself, burst like a star: for here there is no place that does not see you. You must change your life.About Bruce HermanBruce Herman is a painter, writer, educator, and speaker. His art has been shown in more than 150 exhibitions—nationally in many US cities, including New York, Boston, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Houston—and internationally in England, Japan, Hong Kong, Italy, Canada, and Israel. His artwork is featured in many public and private art collections including the Vatican Museum of Modern Religious Art in Rome; The Cincinnati Museum of Fine Arts print collection; The Grunewald Print Collection of the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; DeCordova Museum in Boston; the Cape Ann Museum; and in many colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada.Herman taught at Gordon College for nearly four decades, and is the founding chair of the Art Department there. He held the Lothlórien Distinguished Chair in Fine Arts for more than fifteen years, and continues to curate exhibitions and manage the College art collection there. Herman completed both BFA and MFA degrees at Boston University College of Fine Arts under American artists Philip Guston, James Weeks, David Aronson, Reed Kay, and Arthur Polonsky. He was named Boston University College of Fine Arts Distinguished Alumnus of the Year 2006.Herman's art may be found in dozens of journals, popular magazines, newspapers, and online art features. He and co-author Walter Hansen wrote the book Through Your Eyes, 2013, Grand Rapids, Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, a thirty-year retrospective of Herman's art as seen through the eyes of his most dedicated collector.To learn more, explore A Video Portrait of the Artist and My Process – An Essay by Bruce Herman.Books by Bruce Herman*Makers by Nature: Letters from a Master Painter on Faith, Hope, and Art* (2025) *Ordinary Saints (*2018) *Through Your Eyes: The Art of Bruce Herman (2013) *QU4RTETS with Makoto Fujimura, Bruce Herman, Christopher Theofanidis, Jeremy Begbie (2012) A Broken Beauty (2006)Show NotesBruce Herman on Human Identity as MakersWe are created in the image of God—the ultimate “I Am”—and thus made to create.“We are made by a Maker to be makers.”To deny our creative impulse is to risk a deep form of spiritual unhealth.Making is not just for the “artist”—everyone is born with the capacity to make.Theological Themes and Philosophical FrameworksInfluences include Martin Buber's “I and Thou,” René Girard's scapegoating theory, and the image of God in Genesis.“We don't really exist for ourselves. We exist in the space between us.”The divine invitation is relational, not autonomous.Desire, imitation, and submission form the core of our relational anthropology.Art as Resistance to Consumerism“We begin to enter into illness when we become mere consumers.”Art Versus PropagandaCulture is sickened by passive consumption, entertainment addiction, and aesthetic commodification.Making a loaf of bread, carving wood, or crafting a cocktail are acts of cultural resistance.Desire“Anything is resistance… Anything is a protest against passive consumption.”Art as Dialogue and Submission“Making art is a form of prayer. It's a form of entering into relationship.”Submission—though culturally maligned—is a necessary posture in love and art.Engaging with art requires openness to transformation.“If you want to really receive what a poem is communicating, you have to submit to it.”The Transformative Power of Encountering ArtQuoting Rilke's Archaic Torso of Apollo: “You must change your life.”True art sees the viewer and invites them to become something more.Herman's own transformative moment came unexpectedly in front of a Rothko painting.“The best part of my work is outside of my control.”Scandal, Offense, and the Cross in ArtAnalyzing Andres Serrano's Piss Christ as a sincere meditation on the commercialization of the cross.“Does the crucifixion still carry sacred weight—or has it been reduced to jewelry?”Art should provoke—but out of love, not self-aggrandizement or malice.“The cross is an offense. Paul says so. But it's the power of God for those being saved.”Beauty, Suffering, and Holy RiskEncounter with art can arise from personal or collective suffering.Bruce references Christian Wiman and Walker Percy as artists opened by pain.“Sometimes it takes catastrophe to open us up again.”Great art offers not escape, but transformation through vulnerability.The Fire and the Rose: T. S. Eliot's InfluenceFour Quartets shaped Herman's artistic and theological imagination.Eliot's poetry is contemplative, musical, liturgical, and steeped in paradox.“To be redeemed from fire by fire… when the fire and the rose are one.”The collaborative Quartets project with Makoto Fujimura and Chris Theofanidis honors Eliot's poetic vision.Living and Creating from Love, Not Fear“Make from love, not fear.”Fear-driven art (or politics) leads to manipulation and despair.Acts of love include cooking, serving, sharing, and creating for others.“The ultimate act of art is hospitality.”Media & Intellectual ReferencesMakers by Nature by Bruce HermanFour Quartets by T.

What do you do when faced with a big, important question that keeps you up at night? Many people seek quick answers dispensed by “experts,” influencers, and gurus. But these one-size-fits-all solutions often fail to satisfy, and can even cause more pain.  In How to Fall in Love With Questions, Elizabeth Weingarten finds inspiration in a few famous lines from Rainer Maria Rilke's Letters to a Young Poet, and then takes this insight – to love the questions themselves – to modern science to offer a fresh approach for dealing with the uncertainty in our lives. What if our questions—the ones we ask about relationships, work, meaning, identity, and purpose—are not our tormentors, but our teachers? Weingarten offers a fresh approach for dealing with seemingly unsolvable questions, not as a quick fix but to deepen our sense of being fully alive. Weingarten shares her own journey and the stories of others, including a part of my own story after the events of 9/11 in New York City when I first turned to Rilke's letters, to chart a different, and better, relationship with uncertainty. Designed to inspire anyone who feels stuck, powerless, and drained, How to Fall in Love with Questions challenges us to unlock our minds and embark on the kind of self-discovery that's only possible when we feel most alive—that is, when we don't know what will happen next.

I've already done a Lententide episode devoted to contraltos singing the music of Bach, but it seemed to me that in the upheaval of today's vengeful and war-hungry world, we could use another contemplative episode to provide us with meditative (and even tuneful!) music to calm our spirits. The tunefulness comes especially from recordings of favorite religious music by Gounod, Franck, and other 19th-century French composers sung by Camille Maurane, Marcel Journet, Richard Verreau, and Françoise Pollet. Also included are a live excerpt from Parsifal with Jon Vickers and Hans Knappertsbusch; the miraculous yet voiceless Hugues Cuénod performing an excerpt from the first of Couperin's Leçons de Ténèbres; the unsung German-British soprano Ilse Wolf in a live performance of the Bach Johannes-Passion conducted by Pablo Casals; Gundula Janowitz in a searing but brief aria from Mendelssohn's Paulus; excerpts from settings of the Stabat Maters of Haydn and Dvorák, sung by Alfreda Hodgson, Sena Jurinac, and Heinz Hoppe; the original version of Hendrik Andriessen's exquisite Miroir de Peine cycle for voice and organ featuring our beloved Elly Ameling; and Jennie Tourel in an excerpt from her ultra-rare recording of Hindemith's Das Marienleben preceded by Lotte Lehmanns's recitation of the same Rilke poem. The episode begins and ends with realizations by Benjamin Britten and Michael Tippett of Baroque masters Henry Purcell and Pelham Humfrey sung, respectively, by Peter Pears and John Shirley-Quirk. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

// Heute kommt sie endlich, die fünfte Ausgabe der Tryday-Reihe im FREI RAUS Podcast. Ich war letzte Woche schon leicht angeschlagen, als ich dieses Tages-Experiment gestartet habe, deshalb ist es auch keine körperliche Herausforderung, sondern eine kreative geworden: Ich habe ein Gedicht geschrieben. Eins ist sicher: Das hätte ich sonst in den nächsten zehn Jahren sicher nicht getan! Dieses Gedicht hier im Podcast vorzulesen, ist dabei definitiv noch Teil des Trydays, denn mir ist schon bewusst, dass ich nicht Rilke bin. Und obwohl ich ja durchaus schon Geschriebenes in die Öffentlichkeit getragen habe – ein Gedicht war noch nicht dabei ... // Mehr zum FREI RAUS Podcast, unter anderem auch die Möglichkeit, dich zum wöchentlich erscheinenden Newsletter anzumelden, findest du unter https://www.christofoerster.com/freiraus // Coverphoto by Blackforest Collective

Host, Lisa Colon DeLay and Mark S. Burrows discuss his new books and translation projects of poet Rainer Maria Rilke in a fascinating conversation.

Today's subject matter is so slippery and mysterious that even my guest, Dr Maya Ward, finds it hard to describe, though she's swimming in it. It concerns the aliveness of rivers and the rivers inside us; the nature of reality and realms invisible yet objectively real. It's about catching the whispers and shouts of the world with pen and paper. It's shamanic, ecstatic and emphatically esoteric. It's bloody wild – and I suggest bringing your passport because the places this convo will take you are far out. But also, deep within. If you love all things complex, paradoxical and perspective-shifting, I dedicate this episode to you

Wes & Erin continue their discussion of Rainer Maria Rilke's “You Who Never Arrived" and “Be Ahead of All Parting” (II.13 from his “Sonnets to Orpheus”), and whether—as Rilke suggests—death can be put in service of life, and suffering sourced as the principal wellspring of a joyful existence.

Porombka, Wiebke www.deutschlandfunk.de, Büchermarkt

In his poem “You Who Never Arrived,” Rainer Maria Rilke suggests that we can mourn love as an unrealized possibility, and see this loss signified everywhere in the ordinary objects of the external world. In “Be Ahead of All Parting” (II.13 from his “Sonnets to Orpheus”), he seems to claim that poetry has the capacity to redeem such losses—and retrieve them, so to speak, from their underworld. Wes & Erin discuss these two classics, and whether—as Rilke suggests—death can be put in service of life, and suffering sourced as the principal wellspring of a joyful existence.

To live in the unresolved questions, tensions and contradictions of life is to be alive. To try to turn away from them, as if our lives could be question and confusion free is simply to drive the tensions inside us - to divide ourselves internally and to divide ourselves from life. We could see, as Lizzie says in this conversation, that "the tensions are life itself". So what does it take to live in the midst of life's complexity rather than turn away - to live life rather than pretend to live? That's the question we take up in this episode.

Here's our source for this week: “Be patient towards all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves….Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.” Rainer Maria Rilke Parker Palmer writes in reflection: But my deeper hope comes with Rilke's words “and the point is to live everything.” Of course that is the point! If I do not fully live the tensions that come my way, those tensions do not disappear: they go underground and multiply. I may not know how to solve them, but by wrapping my life around them and trying to live out their resolution, I open myself to new possibilities and keep the tensions from tearing me apart. There is only one alternative: an unlived life, a life lived in denial of the tensions that life brings. Here I play a masked role, pretending outwardly that I have no tensions at all while inwardly all those tensions I pretend not to have are ripping the fabric of my life. Pretending is another name for dividedness, a state that keeps us from cultivating the capacity for connectedness on which teaching depends. When we pretend we fall out of community with the common centre that is both the root and the fruit of teaching at its best. But when we understand that ‘the point is to live everything' we will recover all that is lost. From the Courage to Teach, Parker Palmer Photo by Jacky Nelson on Unsplash

"The way to unity is not through uniformity, it is through understanding and loving the other." - Lore Ferguson Wilbert." Whether it's your spouse, family member, or your neighbor, it's not always easy loving someone with differences. Yet chemistry is not sameness, and today we are grateful to have Christianity Today book award author Lore Ferguson, 9 (9w8 and 6w5 pairing), Wilbert on the pod today to encourage us in a Christ-like loving of the other - whatever that means - in our lives. We also enjoy talking about Lore's beautiful book, The Understory as she helps us to see the parallels of Christian faith in the resilience and rootedness found in the minutiae and cycles of the natural world. May we truly find the courage to step into the community and love those who believe differently as we learn from Lore here on today's show.
