About the Author
Paul Johann Ludwig Heyse (1830–1914) was a German writer and translator, born in Berlin to a philologist father and of partial Jewish descent, who studied philology and became prominent in Munich literary circles. Renowned for novels, poetry, over 170 short stories, and dozens of dramas, he gained fame early with Italian-inspired works after travels there. He received the 1910 Nobel Prize in Literature for his idealistic artistry as a poet, dramatist, novelist, and especially short story writer.
