Professor Prawer's new book documents Heinrich Heine's lifelong involvement with England and the English. It shows him to have been a witty and intelligent observer of English men and women, institutions and politics; and to have extended his observation backwards into English history and literature of the past in a way that constantly welds the past to the present.
