Der Tanzbär Atta Troll kann sich eines Tages losreißen. In einer Höhle schmiedet er Umsturzpläne gegen die Menschheit – doch seine Pläne enden grausam. Heine zeigt in diesem Versepos den freiheitsliebenden Tanzbären und andere skurrile Figuren als Karikaturen ihrer Zeit. Voll sprachlichem Witz enthält das Werk in typischer Manier zahlreiche sarkastische Anspielungen auf Dichterkollegen und Zeitgenossen.
