wife of printer and wood-engraver Johann Friedrich Unger. She was
born at Berlin in 1751, and was distinguished for her talents and
accomplishments. She published several popular novels, one of
which, entitled "Julia Grünthal, the History of a Boarding-School
Girl," ("Julchen Grünthal, eine Pensioinsgeschichte,"

Beautiful Soul" ("Bekentnisse einer schönen Seele," 1806)
