Rilke’s Duino Elegies is rarely studied as one work. There are studies of some individual Elegies, especially the First and the Second, which are undoubtedly extraordinarily powerful poems. But the power of the whole is not dependent on these alone or on the few others which are also discussed. What is attempted in this paper is a study of the set as one work of art. Close reading of the poems hereis guided by the question, what is the loss or the wrack of which the poem as a whole or in its individual parts is the response; and itreveals a character with an anguished state of consciousness regarding his place in the world. The analysis of the Speaker’s condition is based on concepts derived from Heidegger’s Being and Time, mainly Angst and Sorge. But there is need first of all to pin down this Speaker and to characterize him. A grammatical analysis is undertaken in this paper for that purpose. Key concepts:Angst, consciousness, disclosedness, dramatic monologue, hero, soliloquy, Sorge, transference.
