Many many thanks for this. Just what I wanted -- and didn't want, because
I now have to figure out what the new material in it consists of.
It may contain material that has not been published anywhere else and
needs to be published in English, even if it has to be back-translated.
Figuring this out -- never mind carrying out such a project -- is not an
easy project for one as ignorant of German as I am , but it's an
invaluable lead.
