Considered the leading figure of the Young Germany movement, Heinrich Heine was a poet, journalist, essayist and literary critic. He is famous for his early lyric poetry, which was set to music in the form of 'Lieder' by Schumann and Schubert. Heine's later verse and prose are noted for their satirical wit and biting irony.
