Paul Heyse was born on March 15, 1830 in Berlin, Germany.
Heyse studied classical and Romance languages and traveled for a year in Italy, supported by a research grant.
After completing his studies he became an independent scholar and was called to Munich by Maximilian II of Bavaria. His subsequent career as a leader of the Munich Poets' Circle was marked by professional and popular success.
Heyse's half dozen novels avoid the political and sociological and tend to emphasize ethical views and goals. Kinder der Welt (1873) attests to his advocacy of "nature" and individual "freedom" as criteria in opposition to religious dogmatism. Im Paradiese (1875) is anti-Philistine in its ethical orientation. The element of classical balance and restraint and his opposition to the tenets and tactics of naturalism emerge in the novel Merlin (1892).
In his 120 novellas Heyse's imaginative and formalistic gifts are most fully realized. Here, too, his emphasis upon freedom, individuality, and instinct comes to the fore, although instinct is not presented as incompatible with spirituality or a sense of duty. Even the humblest or most unfortunate characters are endowed with dignity and nobility, which can provide a redemptive force if the individual remains "true to himself. " L'Arrabbiata (1852) is perhaps his most famous novella.
As coeditor, Heyse published two extensive collections of 19th-century novellas: Deutscher Novellenschatz (24 vols. , from 1871) and Neuer deutscher Novellenschatz (24 vols. , 1884-1888). In his introduction to the former work he describes his "falcon theory" of the novella, advocating the utmost simplicity and clarity of content and form and urging the necessity for an inward conflict culminating in an abrupt turning point or change, which should be represented by a concrete symbol (as the falcon in a Boccaccio story).
Heyse's 60 carefully constructed dramas and many lyrics lack force, but his translations from the Italian poets are admired. In 1910 Paul Heyse received the Nobel Prize for literature. He died in Munich on April 2, 1914.
