Manuscript letter from Rilke in Switzerland to Elfriede Nicolaus in Sweden. Rilke refuses an offer to write a preface to the volume of poems by Indian poet Sri Ananda Acharya that she is translating into German and publishing. Accompanied by typescript English translation.
The correspondence in file 5 (MSG 424-5) attests that this letter was written and sent by Rilke sometime between mid-August and the end of September 1922.
