More about the book
A reassessment of Heinrich Heine's literary significance argues for his rightful place in the Canon of World Literature. The text explores the irony and complexity of his prose, addressing themes of exile, belonging, and censorship. It draws parallels between Heine and other modern writers like Pablo Neruda and Walter Benjamin, highlighting their shared experiences of persecution and the use of art as a form of resistance. In an era that values transnational literature, Heine's work is presented as both ahead of its time and enduringly relevant.
