ルートヴィヒ・ティーク
In 1799 Bernhardi married Sophie Tieck, the younger sister of Ludwig Tieck, however, the marriage broke down in 1805. This relationship brought him into Romantic circles, associated with people such as Friedrich and August Wilhelm Schlegel, Ludwig Tieck and others. This prompted him to write and publish works on linguistics, as well as satirical writings about Berlin society and literary life. Bernhardi also contributed to literary journals and almanacs (such as "Athenäum" and "Europa"), and wrote some stories and poems in the romantic style, the most well-known of which is "Der Löwe in Florenz" (The Lion in Florence).
