Eduard Brunberg (17 February 1862 [O.S. 5 February 1862] – 17 November 1923), known by the pen nameEduard Bornhöhe,[needs Estonian and German IPA] was an Estonian writer.
Bornhöhe is generally considered a pioneer of the genre of the Estonian historical novel, as the majority of his creations consist of romanticism-influenced historical adventure stories.
Another historical story set during the time of the St. George's Night Uprising. More realistic and less naïve than Tasuja, with more sophisticated characters.
This historical story, best known through the movie adaptation Viimne reliikvia (Estonian for The last relic), is set during a peasant uprising in the era of the Livonian War. Due to Czarist censorship, this remained Bornhöhe's last historical story.
1899 Usurändajate radadel (Estonian for On the trail of faith travellers)
In 1893, the Russian Empire's censor prohibited publication of historical stories. This led to the eventual withdrawal of Bornhöhe from writing. Notably, he didn't publish any books during the last twenty years of his life.
