A German poet; born at Lichtenau, Bavaria, June 28, 1823; died July 7, 1891. He gained wide reputation by his first work, "Amaranth" (1849), an epic poem written in praise of Roman-Catholicism; and his later works did not fall short of his early promise. They include: "Tales of the Forest Brook and the Pine"; "Hermann Stark", a novel (1868); the remarkable "Lay of the New German Empire" (1871); "Odilo" (1878); "The Wartenberg House" (1884); and "Hymen" (1887).
