description: "Friedrich August Schulze was a German novelist, who wrote under the pen name Friedrich Laun. Schulze was born in Dresden. His first novel, Der Mann, auf Freiersfüssen (1801), was favorably received. He wrote many volumes, and with August Apel edited a ghost story anthology, Gespensterbuch. Thomas De Quincey, who translated several of Laun's stories into English, noted his \"great popularity\" and opined, \"the unelaborate narratives of Laun are mines of what is called Fun\"."
