Author of "Theodora Kantakuzenos" in Taschenbuch zum geselligen Vergnügen. By "Adolf vom Berge", Adolf IX of Berg (c. 1280–1348) may have been meant, but he had died before the final events mentioned in the story (the retirement of John VI Kantakouzenos in 1354). Adolf, Duke of Jülich-Berg (c. 1370–1437) is also possible. Even assuming this to be a genuine 14th century story, no writer was credited with translating/modernising it into contemporary German. Johann Friedrich Kind was the editor of Taschenbuch zum geselligen Vergnügen at the time (from 1815–1832) and may have been involved
