August Gottlieb Meißner war nicht nur Jurist oder Begründer der deutschen Kriminalerzählung im 18.Jahrhundert, sondern er war auch Professor für antike Literatur und Verfasser dicker historischer Bücher über England. Die hier vertonten 10 Justizgeschichten stammen aus der Feder von Henry Fielding, dem Autor des "Tom Jones" und sehr viel berühmteren Pendant zu unserem Meißner.
