English The Story of the Haunted Ship
1905 Translated by Sybil Thesiger Thesiger modifies the sequence of stories contained within the Caravan frame story, and rearranges frame-story content between some stories, and at the end of the entire work, to match that rearrangement. No doubt the motive for rearrangement is to place this story last in the cycle. The meaning of the main part of the title (Orbasan the Robber) is unrelated to that of the German original (Haunted/ Spectral/ Spectre Ship) because it refers to the one who tells the story of the concluding chapter, rather than the content of the story in the concluding chapter. That frame-story content of the concluding chapter is assembled from framework of multiple days/nights of the original cycle.
