Author
Karoline von Günderrode is documented in Fuller’s letters and manuscripts (1841). One work is named, most often in The Letters of Margaret Fuller, Vol. II: 1839-1841, and the most intensive engagement recorded is “excerpted”.
Reprints, Memoirs passages, and repeat notes within a single manuscript are shown but never counted twice. Evidence for this author is selective, not exhaustive. Methodology →
Passages where the evidence goes beyond allusion to indicate that Fuller had Karoline von Günderrode’s work in hand — an explicit statement of reading, sustained excerpting or translation, or a specific reading episode recorded by those who knew her.
“I meant to have translated the best passages of 'Die Gunderode,' — which I prefer to Bettine's correspondence with Goethe.”

Inferred Fuller refers to “the exquisite little poem by Gunderode” without giving its title; the passage identifies the author but not the poem.
