Summary: "Die Tänzerin Barberina: Roman aus der Zeit Friedrich des Grossen" by Adolf Paul is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set against the backdrop of the 18th century during the reign of Frederick the Great and follows the journey of a young dancer named Barberina.
