Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Heinrich Heine´s Life Told in His Own Words I once tried, my dear lady, to set forth as truly and honestly as possible the noteworthy events of my time, in so far as I was myself an observer or victim of them. Of these notes, to which I had complacently given the title of "Memoirs," I was obliged to destroy nearly half - partly for painful family reasons, and partly through religious scruples. I have since tried to fill up in some measure the blanks in the story; though I fear that future considerations of propriety or a certain self-distrust may lead me to make a new auto-da-fè of my memoirs before I die; and even what escapes the flames may very likely never see the light of day. From all this you will easily see, my dear lady, that I cannot gratify your desire to read my memoirs and letters. Still, being, as I have always been, a worshiper of your grace, I cannot absolutely disregard any wish of yours; and will do my best to gratify in some measure the kind curiosity due to your sympathy with all that has befallen me. With that view I have written the following pages; and such biographical notes as would be of interest to you are herein fully set down. I have honestly written all that is important or characteristic; and the mutual influence of outward events and inward feelings will furnish you with a true picture of my whole self. It is all straight from my heart, and thou mayest view it in its native beauty. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
