Historical fictionalisations are popular with a wide readership
today. The better examples avoid expediency with historical fact,
but bring dramatic life to otherwise dry chronology. It is
therefore surprising to find sober German historical erudition
utilising a fictional narrative to impart a copious amount of
detail. However, this style found a readership far wider than just
the scholarly. By combining historical learning with dramatisation,
Gallus, published in 1838, became a best-seller in Germany and was
quickly translated for the English market. Perhaps not to the taste
of the English, however, was the somewhat burdensome apparatus of
the notes which broke the narrative after each section. These were
distilled and placed as footnotes, so that the narrative flowed
freely. The depth of learning which abounds throughout the book is
an attribute of this significant work which should not be
overlooked when engaging with the novelty of its approach.
