Title Friedrich Leopold Stolberg, [negative comparison of Genlis to other author]
Is same as work
Part of work Reisen in Deutschland, der Schweiz, Italien und Sizilien in den Jahren 1791 und 1792
Author
Reference
Place Germany
Date 1791
Quotation [writing about Wynne´s Les Morlaques] this work is not so much known as it deserves to be. We pant after the literary novelties of France. The Barber of Seville, and the Marriage of Figaro, have been performed incessantly on the German stage; and the petty sensations of the heartless Genlis are in the hands of every mother of a family: while the witty and feeling writings of Rosenberg [Giustiniana Wynne, Countess Rosenberg Orsini] are almost unknown.
