Note 1 — HEINE'S PROSE WRITINGS.
Reading edition
There are three German biographies of Heine, those of Strodtmann, Karpeles, and Proelss; a new edition of his works in six volumes, with a biography and notes by Dr. Elster, has lately been announced. Mr. Matthew Arnold, by his well-known essay and poem, has done much to stimulate English interest in Heine. A careful critical estimate by Mr. Charles Grant (Contemporary, Sept. 1880) may be mentioned with praise.
