Insights into Schiller's everyday (working) life. The daily chronicle of the garden house period

The three summers in which Schiller lived in the garden house with his family are unfolded and recounted day by day based on a broad range of sources. The reader not only learns which works the poet was working on, what he was reading and who he was visiting, but also how the family's everyday life was organized. The topics covered here range from the children's birthdays to questions of interior design and the layout of the garden.
