Excerpt from Er Soll Dein Herr Sein Possibly no poet of modern times was more favored by fortune than was Paul Heyse. Richard M. Meyer characterizes him as the typical heir of Goethe, in that his intellectual wealth was not the result of labori ous acquirement, and that he was never compelled to hus band the resources of his literary genius. Outwardly, too, he was most favorably situated. His father was a philologist of high standing, who provided his son with all the advantages of cultured surroundings. Born in Berlin in 1830, the future poet and novelist was early introduced to the intellectual aristocracy of the Prussian capital; at the University of Bonn, where he acquired his doctorate at the early age of twenty-two, he became the close friend of men who soon made a name for themselves in various fields of scholarly activity; when he was still a young man, he removed from Berlin to. Munich, the metropolis of South Germany, where he received a warm welcome at the hands of a circle of poets and artists under the leadership of Emanuel Geibel. At present he is spending the declining years of his life at the Gardone Riviera in Italy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
