Without Mephisto! - Heinrich Heine and Mathilde is the - autonomous and independently readable - fourth part of the, essentially fictive, biography of one of the greatest and most enigmatic love poets of Germany. It describes his voluntary exile in Paris with the cholera epidemic of 1832, his visits to Vinot de la Trétoire and vacation trips. His beloved Chloé Maurel, known as Morelle, and his later wife Crescence Eugénie Mirat from Vinot, known as Mathilde, appear, her mother Crescentia and Mathilde's companion Pauline, his contemporaries and friends Etienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, Alexandre Weill, Gérard de Nerval, George Sand, the Principessa Cristina Belgiojoso, etc. Above all, his secret loved ones and love affairs. No less but also the forms of his erotic imagination: Ovid's Corinne, Dido from Carthage, the beautiful Helena, Glykera, Baudelaire's celle qui est trop gaie, Pandore, Luise, Candida, Manon, Jenny, Asunción ... Eros is still the antagonist of love.
