Klein published in 1817 Vertraute Briefe i. Christenthum u. Protestantismus, and in 1817 began with Schroter the publication of the theological journal Fiir Christenthulm und Gottesgelahrtheit. Of his other publications the following deserve our notice: Beredsamnkeit des Geistlichen (1818, 8vo): — Grundlinien des Religiosismnus (1819, small 8vo): — Dogmatik d. evamgel. protest. Kirche (1822, 8vo). See Doring, Gelehrte Theologen Deutschlands, ii, 108 sq. (J. H. W.)
