About this book

A dancing bear breaks loose in the Pyrenees in Heinrich Heine's comic verse epic, which pokes fun at the political poets of his day. This edition, with headings and tail-pieces to each canto by Horace Taylor, adds Heine's own preface and an introduction by Dr. Oscar Levy, whose notes close the volume. Levy begins with the Empress Elizabeth of Austria's statue of Heine on Corfu and what became of it, then describes Heine as a foe of Prussia and a critic of the Hohenzollern house.

Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine was a German poet and prose writer whose lyric clarity, political criticism, and irony made him a figure of nineteenth-century literature. Born in Düsseldorf and educated in law, he settled in Paris in 1831, writing about French and German culture for readers on both sides of the border.
