Friedrich von Schiller wurde 1759 in Marbach geboren. Auf Befehl des Herzogs Karl Eugen musste der junge Schiller 1773 in die 'Militär-Pflanzschule' eintreten, wo er ab 1775 Medizin studierte; später wurde er Regimentsmedicus in Stuttgart, das er 1782 nach Arrest und Schreibverbot wegen seines Stückes 'Die Räuber' jedoch fluchtartig verließ. 1789 wurde er zum Professor der Geschichte und Philosophie in Jena ernannt, 1799 ließ er sich endgültig in Weimar nieder. Schiller starb am 9.5.1805 in Weimar.

Pressezitat
"Schiller's narrative is every bit as beautiful and haunting as its cover suggests... a darkly dramatic, beautifully composed illustration of the questions of freedom and will Schiller returns to again and again in his dramas and theses." - Tobia Hill, The Times"Handsome reissue of what Schiller's one and only novel is an immensely welcome curiosity... a wonderfully weird little work." - Stuart Kelly, The Scotsman
