Works attributed to Miltitz

[edit]
  • "Guido and Fiammetta" in Christmas Tales (1825) (external scan)
  • The Twelve Nights (1831) (transcription project)
    • Attributed to "Baron Karl von Miltie" in Samuel Halkett's Dictionary of the Anonymous and Pseudonymous Literature volume 4 (1888) (external scan)
    • The book's preface says that most chapters are based on stories from French periodicals; of the twelve chapters, eight have been identified as translations from several authors, none of which are Miltitz
    • The attribution to Miltitz is probably the result of a confusion of this book's title with Miltitz' short story "Die zwölf Nächte" ('The Twelve Nights')
