Hardly any other poet of the 19th century was more admired and more read as Heinrich Heine. The majority of his poems was written in four lined stanzas. Most of them are short songs, their stanzas number varies from 2 to 6. Heine has not created his verse forms from scratch. The most commonly used Germanic-German verse forms in his poetry are so called a half “Hildebrandsstrophe” as well as the “Vagantenpaar”. It is much to Heine’s credit for the development of poetry, that he varied the old existing German verse forms in a way, that they appeared popular. The means of his poetry are not new, but the combination of certain rhythm and content structures is what makes his style.
