In Munich, Heine began publishing a newspaper, but failed to set up in the central city of Bavaria and headed for Italy, where he finished the last travel notes he added to the collection "Road Paintings". He tries to find a job in Berlin, but he does not succeed and is forced to return to Hamburg - "the cradle of my misfortunes," the city that he has decided not to live long because he is warmly welcomed by his intellectuals and difficult to bear for its family, which inhabits it. When he learns that Parisians are preparing for a new revolution, the tireless wanderer Heine goes to France. As a zealous patriot and convinced liberal, he feels uncomfortable in his native country, where he feels a victim of the revanchist spirit of the influential Yunker class. He left for Paris with great hopes as he was inspired by the romantic idea of ​​this city as the European capital of culture, literature and the arts, a favorite port for all shipwrecked patriots who come here from the enslaved countries of Central and Southern Europe. Heine arrived in the French capital in early May 1830 and remained there for the rest of his life.

  In Paris, he lives a full life, devotes himself entirely to his creative projects and actively participates in his lively political life. In the Parisian saloons, in the artistic cafes and in the editions of the authoritative Parisian newspapers, he admirably accepted his talent and wit. In the intellectual capital of the French capital, he has become famous as "the most witty man in modern Europe". Heine is befriended by the prominent French poet Theophil Gautier, a zealot of dandy fashion, and by the distinctive intellectual Gerard de Nerval, who is committed to translating into French the poetry of the late German "stormy genius," with which he associates him with a deeply matched kinship. Gauthier describes Heine "more beautiful than Beauty Young", whose charm blends Apollo's charm with the magnetic attraction of Mephistophele. Another frivolous young Parisian (Filaret Scarf) jokingly presents it jokingly: "When his blue German eyes are laughing in harmony with his mouth, a man discovers how gay he is in the bitter irony." Heine's French friends soon get to know his inner contradictions, his laughter , lacking jubilance, his pretentious tears, which are perhaps true, his rare angry outbursts that he quickly mastered, his sophisticated sensitivity and his easily vulnerable suspicion.

As a continuation of the work of Madame de Stal / "About Germany" / Heine wrote to help the French to get to know the philosophy, religion and literature of his native country, the study "Religion and Philosophy in Germany" and the study "Romantic School" , in which he follows the development of German literary romance. In the panorama of German philosophy he highlights Hegel's contribution and predicts the influence of his original ideas on European thought.  At the same time, Heine became a regular Corridor from Paris to the German Augsburger Allgemeine Zeitung, where in a series of articles, essays and reviews he traces and describes the cultural life of the French capital, introduces for many years his compatriots with secular and political life, mores, exhibitions and theatrical productions, with the everyday life of their neighbors beyond the Rhine. Later, his publications as a Parisian correspondent were collected in separate volumes entitled "French Artists", "For France" and "Lutezia" .At the beginning of her stay in Paris, Heine writes mostly satires and volunteer poems in which she hangs up with the little girls who run around the streets around Palais Royal. Later, after entering the political capital of the capital of France, the German poet created a cycle of civilly engaged poems to respond to the current conflicts and conflicts in the intellectual circles of Paris. Meanwhile, he linked his life with a young Norman, Mathild Mira, with whom she met in a Parisian shop.
