This comprehensive study of the 19th-century German poet Heinrich
Heine is the first to be published in English for many years.
Anthony Phelan examines the complete range of Heine's work, from
the early poetry and 'Pictures of Travel' to the last poems,
including personal polemic and journalism. Phelan provides original
and detailed readings of Heine's major poetry and throws new light
on his virtuoso political performances that have too often been
neglected by critics. Through his critical relationship with
Romanticism, Heine confronted the problem of modernity in
startlingly original ways that still speak to the concerns of
post-modern readers. Phelan highlights the importance of Heine for
the critical understanding of modern literature, and in particular
the responses to Heine's work by Adorno, Kraus and Benjamin. Heine
emerges as a figure of immense European significance, whose
writings now need to be seen as a major contribution to the
articulation of modernity.
