His criticism o f the exclusion o f optics led another participant i n the discussion to argue that it should be linked to a film archive (ibid. , 235-36). See Meumann I9I2, I30. . .

ies, see Seeliger 1985. The major identification problem between 1826 and 1916 and in 1959 appears to have been Schiller's rather than Goethe's skull. Whether or not the corpse in the royal tomb will prove that Goethe used arsenic to poison Schiller, whether it belongs to the poet or to a young woman, whether Goethe used a file to distort its teeth-all that is still unresolved. Reason enough for Pro- fessor Pschorr to reenact the 1912 opening of tomb and coffin in 1916.
