For a few years Adolphe Thiers wrote for the newspaper under the pseudonym “The French Correspondent” Heinrich Heine also worked as a Paris correspondent for the newspaper from 1832, and Richard Wagner published a number of articles and obituaries there. Ferdinand Gregorovius reported for the “Allgemeine” in the 1850s, initially from Corsica in a few articles about the history and culture of the island, later from his adopted home Rome also about political events of the Risorgimento .
