The Ghost-Seer; or the Apparitionist; and Sport of Destiny by Friedrich Schiller

"The Ghost-Seer; or the Apparitionist; and Sport of Destiny" by Friedrich Schiller is a novel published between 1787 and 1789. A German prince visits Venice during carnival and becomes entangled in a web of supernatural events and secret conspiracies. As a Jesuit society plots to convert him to Catholicism and claim political power, the prince struggles between passion and duty, reason and mystery. Blending Gothic elements with Enlightenment philosophy, this unfinished work became Schiller's most popular during his lifetime. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
