Meyer is celebrated for his historical novels and poetry that delve into profound moral and philosophical themes. "Huttens Letzte Tage" is a poetic exploration of the final days of Ulrich von Hutten, a significant figure in the Reformation. "Engelberg," like much of Meyer's work, reflects on themes of history, nature, and the human condition. This collection offers readers a valuable glimpse into Meyer's poetic oeuvre, showcasing his mastery of language and his engagement with pivotal moments in European history and culture.
