A reissue of Schiller's DER GEISTERSEHER THE GHOST SEER an unfinished epistolary novel published in book form in Germany in 1789 that adds Ewers' own conclusion to the story and his fourteen-page afterword presumably explaining of his method and motivations. At least two continuations or conclusions to Schiller's tale in English have been published but Ewers' conclusion appears to be the only one composed in German. It was not well received by critics.
