First sentence: IN THE FIRST VOLUME of her memoirs, Denkwurdigkeiten aus meinem Leben (Reminiscences of My Life), and the second volume of her Zerstreute Blatter (Scattered Album Leaves), the Viennese writer Carolina Pichler briefly invokes a friend of her youth, "one of the most interesting women in Vienna": the poet Gabriele von Baumberg (1766-1839).
