_Im Paradiese_ (1875)--the one dealing with the religious and social problems of its time, the other with artist-life in Munich--_Der Roman der Stiftsdame_ (1888), and _Merlin_ (1892), a novel directed against the modern realistic movement of which Heyse had been the leading opponent in Germany. He has also been a prolific dramatist, but his plays are deficient in theatrical qualities and are rarely seen on the stage. Among the best of them are _Die Sabinerinnen_ (1859); _Hans Lange_ (1866), _Kolberg_ (1868), _Die Weisheit Salomos_ (1886), and _Maria von Magdala_ (1903). There are masterly translations by him of Leopardi, Giusti, and other Italian poets (_Italienische Dichter seit der Mitte des 18ten Jahrhundert_) (4 vols., 1889-1890). Heyse's _Gesammelte Werke_ appeared in 29 vols. (1897-1899); there is also a popular edition of his _Romane_ (8 vols., 1902-1904) and _Novellen_ (10 vols., 1904-1906). See his autobiography, _Jugenderinnerungen und Bekenntnisse_ (1901); also O. Kraus, _Paul Heyses Novellen und Romane_ (1888); E. Petzet, _Paul Heyse als Dramatiker_ (1904), and the essays by T. Ziegler (in _Studien und Studienkopfe_, 1877), and G. Brandes (in _Moderne Geister_, 1887). HEYSHAM, a seaport in the Lancaster parliamentary division of Lancashire, England, on the south shore of Morecambe Bay, served by the Midland railway. Pop. (1901) 3381. Under powers obtained from parliament in 1896, the Midland Railway Company constructed, and opened in 1904, a harbour, enclosed by breakwaters, for the development of traffic with Belfast and other Irish ports, a daily passenger-service of the first class being established to Belfast. The harbour has a depth at low tide of 17 ft., and extensive accommodation for live-stock and goods of all kinds is provided. Heysham is in some favour as a watering-place. The church of St Peter is mainly Norman, and has fragments of even earlier date. Ruins of a very ancient oratory stand near it. This was dedicated to St Patrick, and is traditionally said to have been erected as a place of prayer for those at sea.
