Julius von Voss

Julius von Voss (24 August 1768, Brandenburg an der Havel, Prussia – 1 November 1832 Berlin) was a German author.

## Works[edit]

His rapidity of literary production was almost without a parallel. His best story is The Schildbürger (The Fooltownite: 1823). He wrote a great many comedies, farces, and satirical parodies. In The Strahlau Haul of Fish (1822, a popular piece with songs, in the Berlin patois) he gives the first example of the Berlinese farce. Ini. Ein Roman aus dem ein und zwanzigsten Jahrhundert (Ini. A novel from the 21st century, 1810) is regarded as the first German science fiction novel.
