Heinrich Heine Books
Heinrich Heine stands as one of the 19th century's most significant German poets, celebrated initially for his lyric poetry that composers set to music. His later verse and prose are marked by sharp satirical wit and profound irony, often stemming from his radical political views which led to censorship. Beyond his poetry, Heine was a keen journalist, essayist, and literary critic. His enduring legacy lies in his masterful fusion of lyrical beauty, biting social commentary, and fearless expression.

- 368 pages
- 13 hours of reading
A poet whose verse inspired music by Schubert, Schumann, Mendelssohn and Brahms, Heinrich Heine (1797-1856) was in his lifetime equally admired for his elegant prose. This collection charts the development of that prose, beginning with three meditative works from the Travel Pictures, inspired by Heine's journeys as a young man to Lucca, Venice and the Harz Mountains. Exploring the development of spirituality, the later On the History of Religion and Philosophy in Germany spans the earliest religious beliefs of the Germanic people to the philosophy of Hegel, and warns with startling force of the dangers of yielding to 'primeval Germanic paganism'. Finally, the Memoirs consider Heine's Jewish heritage and describe his early childhood. As rich in humour, satire, lyricism and anger as his greatest poems, together the pieces offer a fascinating insight into a brilliant and prophetic mind.
