BiographyHistory

Therese Heyne was the daughter of a distinguished Göttingen professor of classical philology. She married Georg Forster and, after his death, a journalist and man of letters, Ludwig Huber. She began writing fiction around 1793, but published her early work under her first husband's name. Huber wrote several volumes of stories and some novellas and novels. Her book Abentheuer auf einer Reise nach Neuholland/Adventures on a Journey to New Holland has been described as possibly the first novel in world literature to employ an Australian penal settlement as its backdrop.
