The great force in Heine’s early life was his mother. So, too, is Martin Luther, that most German of Germans, “at once a dreamy mystic and a practical man of action” whose “thoughts had not merely wings but also hands; he spoke and acted.” Add another Moses, this one with the surname Mendelssohn, to the pantheon, who “overthrew the authority of Talmudism and founded pure Mosaism.” Then there was Goethe, who, as an artist, “holds the mirror up to nature, or, better, he is the mirror.”, These choices of heroes are dictated by Heine’s larger view of mankind. J. P. Stern describes that prose as “a unique compound of the eternal raconteur’s fun and the precise intellectual wit of the guest at the ideal High Table.” Stern wrote that his “lightness of touch, the effortless responsiveness of the medium, the quickness of the insights and the melodramatic sharp edges of Heine’s expressiveness…all these are quite unprecedented in the annals of German prose.” Stern was particularly struck by “that ambiguity, that ironical illumination of the truth, which are his most successful stylistic device.” Karl Kraus, the 20th-century Viennese journalist and wit, attacked Heine’s prose for its newfound informality, writing that “he loosened the bodice of the German language to the point where any clerk can today fondle her breasts.” Ernst Pawel, author of The Dying Poet, a brilliant little book on Heine’s last years, wrote, correctly, that for Heine, “the poetry brought fame, the prose notoriety.”, escribing in his Memoirs a youthful kiss with the daughter of a professional executioner, Heine notes that “at that moment there flared up in me the first flames of two passions to which my subsequent life was to be devoted: the love of beautiful women and the love of the French Revolution.” For Heine, women were objects both of longing and contempt, and he by turns elevated and debased them, sometimes both at once.

In May 1848, Heine took to his bed in his Paris apartment, the bed he subsequently called his “mattress grave,” from which he never arose. For all their backwardness, he found more to admire in the shtetl Jews of Poland than in the sadly assimilated but self-divided Jews of Germany, wearing the fashions of the day and quoting second-class writers, neither fully German nor fully Jewish.

Later, after he came to appreciate the irony, his love for the Don was undiminished and he came to view himself as a Don Quixote of his own day—but acting, as he put it, “from diametrically opposed points of view.” Heine writes: My colleague mistook windmills for giants; I, on the contrary, see in our giants of today only windmills; he mistook leather wineskins for mighty wizards; I see in our modern wizards only leather wineskins; he mistook every beggar’s inn for a castle—every donkey driver for a knight, every stable wench for a lady of the court—I, on the other hand, look upon our castles as disreputable inns, on our cavaliers as donkey drivers, on our court-ladies as common stable wenches. he problem with Heine,” wrote Ernst Pawel, “is that no statement of his can ever be taken at face value.” Nor is anything about him straightforward, uncomplicated, simple.

What Heine admired about the Polish Jews, and admired about Judaism generally, was that, unlike Greeks and Romans who clung to their soil and other peoples whose fealty was to their princes, the Jews “always clung to the Law, to the abstract idea…[to] the law as the highest principle,” the Bible their “portable fatherland.” Yet, whatever his sympathies for his people, he could not give himself over entirely to Judaism: “It would be distasteful and mean if, as people say of me, I had ever been ashamed of being a Jew, but it would be equally ridiculous if I ever claimed to be one.”, As the enemy of all positive, of all organized, religions, Heine felt he could “never champion that religion which first introduced fault-finding with human beings that now causes us such pain; and if I nevertheless do it after a fashion, there are special reasons: tender emotions, obstinacy, and care to maintain an antidote.” In his Confessions, he wrote that for years he failed to show his fellow Jews sufficient respect, blinded as he was by his partiality to Hellenic aestheticism: “I see now that the Greeks were only beautiful youths, but the Jews were always men, powerful, uncompromising men, not just in the days of old but right up to the present, despite 18 centuries of persecution and misery.”, In Heine’s search for the true religion, he rejected Christianity because, in its organized form, it “killed more joyous gods” and was “too sublime, too pure, too good for this earth.” Besides, as he said, “no Jew can believe in the divinity of another Jew.” He believed that religions are “magnificent and admirable only when they have to compete with one another, and are persecuted rather than persecuting,” and that “a system of religion is as harmful to religion as to trade; [religions] remain alive only through free competition, and they will only return to their original splendor when political equality of worship is introduced—free trade in gods, as it were.”, Yet, as he wrote, “from my earliest years I saw how religion and doubt can live side by side without giving rise to hypocrisy.” Heine never claimed to be an atheist and referred, mockingly, to “the monks of atheism,” by which he meant those for whom atheism was a fanatical religion of its own.

As soon as I’d sung the first bar: Heine called Quixotism generally “the most precious thing in life.” A world filled only with Sanchos Panza, after all, would be one of unrelieved drabness, philistine, sensible but ultimately dull and dreary—whereas, in Heine’s words, “Quixotism lends wings to the whole world and to all in it who philosophize, make music, plough, and yawn.” They do not come along all that often, but when they do, authentic Quixotes reveal life’s larger possibilities and thereby enliven its quality and enlarge its scope.
