Johann Peter Hebel (1760–1826) was a German writer fondly remembered for his Allemannische Gedichte (‘Alemannic poems’) and his Schatzkästlein des rheinischen Hausfreundes (‘Treasure Chest of the Rhenish House-Friend’). Philosophers and thinkers such as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Ludwig Wittgenstein and Martin Heidegger have given recognition to Hebel’s writings.
