Letters to Benvenuta is a correspondence between Rainer Maria Rilke and Magda von Hattingberg, a young Viennese pianist. Rilke received a letter from Magda in 1914, thanking him for the comfort that his poetry had given her after her marital failure. From there, began an intense and passionate correspondence that Rilke defined as a 'testament of my entire existence, past and future'.

René Karl Wilhelm Johann Josef Maria Rilke, known as Rainer Maria Rilke, was an Austrian poet. Acclaimed as an idiosyncratic and expressive poet, he is widely recognized as a significant writer in the German language. His work is viewed by critics and scholars as possessing undertones of mysticism, exploring themes of subjective experience and disbelief. His writings include one novel, several collections of poetry, several volumes of correspondence and a few early novellas.
