It opened on August 22 in New York with McKee Rankin as the main character. The anti-Mormon play which featured Danites hunting the daughter of one of the murderers of Joseph Smith became one of the most commercially successful in a series of anti-Mormon dramas at the time. The Spirit of the Times however attributed its success to curious audience members expecting a disastrous failure and instead discovering a good show: "The play proved to possess more than ordinary merit and if it is not a great work it is decidedly not a very bad one." The Danites was extended from a run of only a few days to one of seven straight weeks before moving to another theatre and ultimately was performed to such a degree that it rivaled the popularity of Uncle Tom's Cabin. It was published in book form later in 1877. Miller later admitted that he regretted the anti-Mormon tone. " from Wikipedia; 299p. pages; Pictured 1/21/23 . Roberts Brothers hardcover

The first edition was published in 1827 in Hamburg by Hoffmann and Campe .</p><p>The Book of Songs includes Heine's early work with poems from 1817 to 1826. It took almost twenty years until the second large volume of poetry Neue Gedichte was published in 1844 the third and last volume Romanzero followed in 1851. There is not much of the political satire that is typical of Heine's later works such as in Deutschland. Ein Wintermärchen in the Book of Songs . Instead 142 of the 237 poems deal with unhappy love . Heine's feelings for his cousin Amalie and later for her sister Therese 1807–1880 who was seven years younger than him both daughters of Salomon Heine are cited as an explanation for this. Heine commented on this interpretation in a letter to Karl Immermann dated 10 June 1823:</p><p>"Only one thing that can hurt me most painfully is when someone tries to explain the spirit of my poems from history you know what that word means from the history of the author. It hurt me deeply and bitterly when I saw yesterday in a letter from an acquaintance how he wanted to construct my entire poetic being from hastily put-together stories and made unpleasant statements about life impressions political position religion etc. If something similar had been said publicly I would have been quite outraged and I am heartily glad that it never happened. However easily the history of a poet could provide information about his poem however easily it could actually be proven that political position religion private hatred prejudice and considerations often influenced his poem one should never mention this especially not during the poet's lifetime. One deflowers the poem as it were one tears apart its mysterious veil if the influence of history which one demonstrates is actually present; one disfigures the poem if one has mistakenly put it in. And how little often does the external framework of our story fit with our real internal story! For me at least it never fits."</p><p>The Book of Songs also contains political poems. For example Donna Clara is a critique of contemporary anti-Semitism .The most famous poems include The Grenadiers The Loreley "I don't know what it should mean" In the beautiful month of May The old evil songs and Belsatzar .</p><p>Christian Johann Heinrich Heine German: born Harry Heine; 13 December 1797 – 17 February 1856 was a German poet writer and literary critic. He is best known outside Germany for his early lyric poetry which was set to music in the form of Lieder art songs by composers such as Robert Schumann and Franz Schubert. Heine's later verse and prose are distinguished by their satirical wit and irony. He is considered a member of the Young Germany movement. His radical political views led to many of his works being banned by German authorities—which however only added to his fame. He spent the last 25 years of his life as an expatriate in Paris.</p> Perlag von Carl Krabbe. hardcover

I was born as legitimate son of both the 1st of April 1795 in Schnabelewops. My great aunt the old lady von Pipitzka nursed me as a child and told me pretty tales and often sang me to sleep with a song of which I have forgotten both the words and tune; but I can never forget the strange mysterious way in which she nodded as she sang and how mournfully her only tooth the solitary hermit of her mouth peeped out.</p><p><em>THE RABBI OF BACHARACH:</em>On the Lower Rhine where its banks begin to lose their smiling aspect where hills and cliffs with romantic ruined castles rise more defiantly and a wild and sterner dignity prevails there lies like a strange and fearful tale of the olden time the gloomy and ancient town of Bacharach. But these walls with their toothless battlements and turrets in whose nooks and niches the winds blew and the sparrows rest were not always so decayed and fallen and in these poverty-stricken repulsive muddy lanes which one sees through the ruined tower there did not always reign that dreary silence which is only now and then broken by crying children scolding women and lowing cows. These walls were once proud and strong and these lanes were alive with a fresh free life power and pride joy and sorrow much love and much hate.</p><p><strong>Insurance & handling is included free.
