Heinrich Heine (1797–1856), famous poet, journalist, and political exile, studied with Hegel and was personally acquainted with the leading figures of the most important generation of German writers and philosophers. In his groundbreaking History he discusses the history of religion, philosophy, and literature in Germany up to his time, seen through his own highly opinionated, politically aware, philosophically astute, and always ironic perspective. This work, and other writings focussing especially on Heine's rethinking of Hegel's philosophy, are presented here in a new translation by Howard Pollack-Milgate. The volume also includes an introduction by Terry Pinkard which examines Heine both in relation to Hegel and Nietzsche and as a thinker in his own right.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 226mmItem Length: 150mmItem Width: 15mmItem Weight: 390gTranslator: Howard Pollack-MilgateContributor: Terry Pinkard (Edited by), Howard Pollack-Milgate (Translated by)Genre: Philosophy & SpiritualityBook Series: Cambridge Texts in the History of PhilosophyAuthor: Terry PinkardRelease Year: 2007
