a connection between
Rilke's letters to Rodin and de Daumier-Smith. There is the
student-teacher relationship, the feeling of isolation when
abroad, and most striking of all, the insistent worries about
Rodin's wife who seems to be under an undescribable pain,
like Mrs. Yoshoto.

I know Rilke was a secretary to Rodin in Paris around 1905 for a little
under a year, so there is the student-teacher relationship, but this time
it's reversed with the writer being the student. So we have Paris,
isolation, student-teacher thing although reversed, and the pain of rodin's
wife. Sounds like you are on to something. Unfortunately I haven't read the
letters so it is difficult to comment further.
Do you know if these letters are online somewhere?
