Analysis of the NHSX Contact Tracing App ‘Isle of Wight’ Data Protection Impact Assessment
Authors: Veale Michael
Published: May 2020

This note examines the published data protection impact assessment (DPIA) released by NHSX in relation to their contact tracing/proximity tracing app. It highlights a range of significant issues which leave the app falling short of data protection legislation. It does this in order so that these issues can be remedied before the next DPIA is published. The main issues this note focuses on are the following:Personal data- The DPIA must not claim this data is anonymous, or that the app preserves anonymity, as under UK law, it does not.- The document (and associated public messaging) must be changed throughout to reflect the fact that it is not the case that personal data about a user is only uploaded with a user’s permission, as other people upload data revealing a user's social interactions.User rights- The lawful basis for a blanket refusal of the right to erasure is unspecified by NHSX in this DPIA.- The NHSX App unlawfully designs out the right to access when there is a legal obligation to design it in.- If the controller plans to, as with the right to erasure and the right to access, refuse all attempts at the right to object, this needs a justification in the DPIA.Monitoring and automated decision making- The DPIA must acknowledge the NHSX App systematically monitors publicly accessible spaces.- The DPIA does not set out a valid lawful basis for the solely automated, significant decision-making it correctly identifies as occurring.- The information contained in the document embedded in the DPIA describing the logic of automated decisions must be provided under GDPR, article 13.Prior consultation and e-Privacy- The Information Commissioner must be consulted prior to processing within the meaning of GDPR, art 36, not just briefed.- The DPIA should explain how the The Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations are complied with, both in relation to Bluetooth usage and in relation to embedded trackers.The note does not consider alternative architectures or less intrusive means to achieve the purposes of the NHSX app, although these are critical issues that this DPIA could be argued as failing to assess. This note is unable to assess the risks of the app as provided by the DPIA as all the risks have been redacted.

Research has demonstrated that situational factors such as perceived threats to the social order activate latent authoritarianism. The deadly COVID-19 pandemic presents a rare opportunity to test whether existential threat stemming from an indiscriminate virus moderates the relationship between authoritarianism and political attitudes toward the nation and outgroups. Using data from two large nationally representative samples of adults in the United Kingdom (N = 2,025) and Republic of Ireland (N = 1,041) collected during the initial phases of strict lockdown measures in both countries, we find that the associations between right-wing authoritarianism and 1) nationalism and 2) anti- immigrant attitudes are conditional on levels of perceived threat. As anxiety about the COVID-19 pandemic increases, so too does the effect of right-wing authoritarianism on those political outcomes. Thus, it appears that existential threats to humanity from the COVID-19 pandemic moderate expressions of authoritarianism in society.
Modern Thoughtography: Mind Interaction at a distance with digital camera sensors: a pilot study
Authors: Pederzoli Luciano , Bilucaglia Marco , Prati Elena , Matteoli Marzio , Tressoldi Patrizio
Published: May 2020

The aim of this pilot study was to determine the possibility of mentally producing, from a geographical distance, predefined images on modern digital sensors of professional commercial photographic cameras, and to do it sufficiently well for the images to be recognized by a special software. Three participants experienced in distant mind-matter interaction techniques took part in a total of 49 trials. In 6 out of 49 trials (12.2%) the value of the Structural Similarity Index of the target image chosen by the participant for the distant mental influence trial on the camera’s sensor was greater than that obtained when the target was different.Although still preliminary, these results suggest that it may be possible to use modern professional cameras to study the effects of distant mind-matter interactions.
Learned Value and Predictiveness affect Gaze but not Figure Assignment

Published: May 2020

Many factors affect figure-ground segregation, but the contributions of attention and reward history to this process is uncertain. We conducted two experiments to investigate whether reward learning influences figure assignment, and whether this relationship was mediated by attention. Participants learned to associate certain shapes with a reward contingency: during a learning phase, they chose between two shapes on each trial, with subsets of shapes associated with high-probability win, low-probability win, high-probability loss, and low-probability loss. In a test phase, participants were given a figure ground task, in which they indicated which of two regions that shared a contour they perceived as the figure (high probability-win and low-probability win shapes were pitted against each other, as were high probability-loss and low probability-loss shapes). The results revealed that participants had learned the reward contingencies and that, following learning, attention was reliably drawn to the optimal stimulus. Despite this, neither reward history nor the resulting attentional allocation influenced figure-ground organization.
Crime and coronavirus: Social distancing, lockdown and the mobility elasticity of crime

Published: May 2020

Governments around the world restricted movement of people, using social distancing and lockdowns, to help stem the global coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. We examine crime effects for one UK police force area in comparison to 5-year averages. There is variation in the onset of change by crime type, some declining from the WHO ‘global pandemic’ announcement of 11 March, others later. By one week after the 23 March lockdown, all recorded crime had declined 41%, with variation: shoplifting (-62%), theft (-52%), domestic abuse (-45%), theft from vehicle (-43%), assault (-36%), burglary dwelling (-25%) and burglary non-dwelling (-25%). We use Google Covid-19 Consumer Mobility Reports to calculate the mobility elasticity of crime for four crime types, finding shoplifting and other theft inelastic but responsive to reduced retail sector mobility (MEC = 0.84, 0.71 respectively), burglary dwelling elastic to increases in residential area mobility (-1), with assault inelastic but responsive to reduced workplace mobility (0.56). We theorise that crime rate changes were primarily caused by those in mobility, suggesting a mobility theory of crime change in the pandemic. We identify implications for crime theory, policy and future research.
Creating Versus Negating Togetherness: Perceptual and Emotional Differences in Parent-Teenager Reported Time
Authors: Milkie Melissa , Wray Dana , Boeckmann Irene
Published: May 2020

Time together is central to family life, and the question of how much time parents spend with children is vital to scholars. Although parents’ reports of time with children are taken as standard and reliable, assessing different family actors’ perspectives on time together may challenge this notion. Using the American Time Use Survey (2003-2018), we provide a unique window into parent-adolescent time, via a novel examination of precise questions about co-presence and emotions during daily activities. Comparing parents’ and teenagers’ reports of the amount and emotional valence of time spent together, we reveal considerable perceptual gaps – reflecting “ambiguous” rather than “objective” togetherness. Mothers report 24 hours per week of co-presence (“in the room with”) compared to adolescents’ 15 hours – a gap greater than an entire school day; father-teenager discrepancies are comparable. Discrepancies vary by parents’ employment status, with larger discrepancies between stay-at-home parent and adolescent reports. Though the perceptual gap is sizeable, the emotional one is not: both generations experience reported time together as more meaningful, happier and less stressful than time apart, partly due to the nature of activities and presence of other people. Employed parents and the more educated receive more of a well-being boost from adolescent co-presence compared to their counterparts. Ultimately, generational position and social statuses shape perceptions of co-presence, in the form of “creating” versus “negating” classifications of togetherness.
Regulating the European Data-Driven Economy. A Case Study on the General Data Protection Regulation
Authors: Laurer Moritz , Seidl Timo
Published: May 2020

In recent years, data have become part and parcel of contemporary capitalism. This created tensions between the growing demand for personal data and the fundamental right to data protection. Against this background, the EU’s adoption of the general data protection regulation (GDPR) poses a puzzle. Why did the EU adopt a regulation that strengthens data protection despite intensive lobbying by powerful business groups? We make two arguments to explain this outcome. First, we use process tracing to show how institutional legacies triggered and structured the policy-formulation process by strengthening the position of data protection advocates within the Commission. Second, we use discourse network analysis to show that the Snowden revelations fundamentally changed the discursive and coalitional dynamics during the decision-making stage, ‘saving’ the GDPR from being watered down. Our paper contributes to the literature on the political economy of data protection while also offering a comprehensive explanationof the GDPR.
What Is It Like to Be a Nazi? Racial Vision and Scientific Selves in German Portrait Photographic Practice
Authors: Skarpelis Anna Katharina Mosha
Published: May 2020

Default ways of reading others come with a host of problems, often caused by a lack of adequate tools for obtaining analytical and interpretive access to the phenomenon of interest; in the case of Nazis, this has led to a flattening of National Socialist racial thinking into a blunt racial essentialism that, as Ann Stoler put it, ignores nuance and conflicts in historical debates about race that are then juxtaposed to later, presumably more sophisticated, racial epistemologies (Stoler 2016). Horror at historical atrocities has led to a glossing over of significant variation in scientific and cultural practices that are consequential for our understanding of dictatorships and authoritarian regimes substantively, and for our ability as cultural and comparative historical sociologists to make claims about the past, methodologically and causally.What Is It Like to Be a Nazi employs Nagel’s paper as metaphorical point of departure to study not consciousness, but to more attentively interrogate the scientific practices of those whose ways of thinking and existing in the world seem so alien to us, as well as the practices of contemporary social science purporting to understanding National Socialist science. My contribution to this project consists in homing in on one historical form of racial knowledge production and visualization, that of portrait photographic practice. By choosing portrait photographers, the larger category of “Nazi” is narrowed down to a professional group who generated visual propaganda for the National Socialist regime and sustained the dictatorship by way of artistic production.How did National Socialist photographers generate “race” in images? Through an analysis of photographic instruction manuals, reflections of the image makers on their craft and the photographs themselves, I theorize three processes by which National Socialist-period photographers created race in images: contemplation, freezing, and sculpting. Photography, far from being a transcriptional art, brimmed with agency and was in constant disagreement about the nature of perception, and the best way of capturing phenomena occurring in the world through novel technologies. While local circumstances of photographic production under National Socialist rule at first glance appear excessively specific and perhaps exceptional, they raise more universal questions about perception, vision and interpretation that remain at issue today (Browne 2010; Morning 2011; Morning 2014; Nelson 2008).

Authors: Kanodia Piush , Shrestha Sudesh , Gautam Santosh , Chawla Sachin
Published: May 2020

Background: The enzymes CK-MB & LDH are used as potential predictors of timing and grade of HIE in newborns with perinatal asphyxia.

Objectives: To differentiate HIE neonates from non-HIE ones on the basis of significant rise of LDH & CK-MB.

Methodology: Prospective cross-sectional analytical study. Among 164 newborns, 82 comprising the cases and 82 neonates comprising the controls met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The umbilical cord blood samples for CK-MB and LDH was drawn and sent for analysis. A serum CK-MB value >92.6 U/L and LDH value >580 U/L was taken as the cut-off level. Descriptive statistical analyses were done to find the significance between two groups. ROC Curve analysis was performed to find the diagnostic performance of CK-MB and LDH.

Results: Out of total 164 neonates studied, 18.3% had moderate HIE & 11%had severe HIE while 56.1%had No HIE. Seventy-two newborns were found to have LDH levels >580 U/L out of which 71 were in case group and 1 was in control group. Among the 164 neonates studied, 7.9% from case group were found to have CK-MB levels >92.6 U/L. Both the results of LDH & CK-MB levels were very significant with P value <0.001. Area under ROC (Receiving operating Characteristic) value of LDH when compared to CK-MB is (0.978 vs. 0.731).

Conclusion: Estimation of CK-MB and LDH enzymes can help to distinguish asphyxiated from non-asphyxiated term neonates when correlating with their history and clinical features.

Authors: Mahat Arun Kumar , Gurung Gopal , Shrestha Merina , Chaudhary Bishwanath
Published: May 2020

Introduction: Maxillofacial trauma is the most common problem seen by maxillofacial surgeons in Nepal. The causes of facial fractures are road traffic accidents (RTA), assaults, falls, gunshot wounds, domestic violence, sports and work injuries. Maxillofacial injury varies from soft tissue injury to facial bone fractures. This study was conducted to assess the burden of maxillofacial trauma in mid-western and far-western regions of Nepal.

Material and Method: Patients with maxillofacial fractures admitted in dental ward of NGMCTH, Kohalpur, from April 2017 to April 2019 were included in the study. Patients having soft tissue injury without facial bone fractures and OPD cases were excluded from the study. Patient demographics, mechanism of injury, associated soft tissue injury, accompanying injuries to other parts of body and facial bone fractures were recorded. Patient were treated by open reduction internal fixation or lateral compression splint with circum-mandibular wiring or managed conservatively as necessary.

Result: A total of 87 patients were included in the study. The age of patient ranged from 2 years to 67 years with a mean of 26.87 years. Most of the injuries occurred between the age group of 20-29 years with male: female ratio 5.2:1. The most frequent cause of facial bone fracture was RTA (51.7%) and the most frequently fractured facial bone was mandible. Contusion 54(49.5%) was the most common associated soft tissue injury. Head injury 20(52.6%) was the most common accompanying injury to other parts of body. The mean duration of hospital stay was 6.29.

Conclusion: Male patient in their third decade mostly had mandible fracture due to road traffic accident. Head injury was the most common accompanying injury. Contusion was the most common type of associated soft tissue injury.

Objectives: The Aim of this study to assess and analyze the echocardiographic changes in chronic kidney disease patients on maintenance hemodialysis.

Material and methods: We Performed Prospective study of echocardiographic changes in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis at our institute. We performed M-mode echocardiography in 80 CKD patients without obvious clinical evidence of coronary artery disease, Valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease. Data was collected from November 2018 to Nov 2019.

Results: 80 Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis were included in our study, out of them Echocardiography finding shown LV dilation and diastolic dysfunction in 39 (48.75%), left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in 41 (51.25%), systolic dysfunction and pericardial effusion in 22 (27.5%) and 11 (13.75%) patients respectively. RWMA was present in 10% and Valvular calcification was seen in 5 patients. In sub-group of patients with Hb<10 gm%, LVH was present in 32 (78.05%) vs 9 (21.95%) in patient group with Hb ≥ 10 gm% (p <0.01). Other Sub Group of Patients with BP > 140/90mmhg, LVH Was Present in 34 (82.92%) vs 7 (17.08%) in patients group with BP< 140/90 mm hg (p=0.02).

Conclusion: LV diastolic dysfunction and hypertrophy were most common echocardiographic findings. There was statistically significant correlation between anemia and presence of LVH and positive correlation between presence of hypertension and LVH.
Comparative study between the use of St. Thomas' II cardioplegia and del Nido cardioplegia in patients who underwent open-heart surgery
Authors: Vaidya Satish , Adhikari Asit Baran , Karmacharya Robin , Rai Karan
Published: May 2020

Background and Aims: Cardioplegia is used to arrest the heart after the application of an aortic cross-clamp that interrupts the coronary circulation. Commonly used St. Thomas’II cardioplegic solution has to be repeated at short intervals, which may cause additional myocardial injury. So, this study is done to determine whether del Nido (DN) cardioplegia, which has a longer duration of arrest with a single dose, provides equivalent or better myocardial protection as compared to St. Thomas’ II Cardioplegia.

Methods: A prospective observational study was done among 100 patients who underwent open-heart surgery with myocardial protection, between September 2016 to August 2018 in Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Bangladesh. Patients were divided into two groups, group A (n=50) for del Nido cardioplegic and group B (n=50) for St. Thomas’ II cardioplegia. We compared the amount of cardioplegic solution, Aortic cross-clamp time, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time, ischemic time, arrhythmia, spontaneous sinus rhythm after declamping, intraoperative DC shock requirement, postoperative left ventricular ejection fraction, serum potassium level, low cardiac output, cardiac Troponin level I and CK-MB release after 12 hours and 24 hours, presence of myocardial infarction and death.

Results: The per-operative variable suggested spontaneous activity during a cardiac arrest was 2% in del Nido and 14% in St. Thomas’ II group (p=0.044). Similarly, during intraoperative phase spontaneous restoration of cardiac activity after the procedure in del Nido was 2.90 ± 1.16 minutes and in St. Thomas’ II was 1.8 ± 0.615 minutes (p=0.001). However total bypass time and ischemic time were not significant. During the postoperative period, Troponin I and CKMB were measured at 12 hours and 24 hours which were not statistically different in two groups. Postoperatively, low output syndrome was seen among 3 patients in del Nido Group and 4 patients in St. Thomas’ II group (p-value=0.341).

Conclusion: This study showed with the use of del Nido cardioplegia provides equivalent myocardial protection to St. Thomas’ II cardioplegia, with the use of only single-dose cardioplegia.

Published: May 2020

The world is experiencing a coronavirus pandemic called SARS-COV-2 which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19). This has led to a collapse in health systems, making the management of other diseases a challenge. Similarly, the presence of this disease generates many doubts for oncological groups regarding the provision of standard treatments, which should be carried out as soon as possible, in order to ensure better oncological outcomes.
We propose the creation of an index (COVID 19 Cancer Index) taking into account clinical and epidemiological variables and the availability of hospital resources, which are useful for decision making and determining the best treatment for a patient with confirmed or strongly suspected gynecological neoplasia.
Low Prognostic Nutritional Index Indicates Dismal Prognosis in Patients with Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma
Authors: Chen Baoan , Chen Baoan , Luan Chunyan , Zhang Jing , Wu Xue
Published: May 2020

Background: Prognostic nutritional index (PNI) is calculated based on serum albumin concentration and
absolute lymphocyte count, and its prognostic value has been established in various human malignancies.
However, whether PNI can be applied in predicting the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell
lymphoma (DLBCL) remains to be clarified. The aim of the present study is to explore the prognostic value
of baseline PNI in DLBCL.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 98 patients with DLBCL treated at the
Southeast University-affiliated Zhongda Hospital between January 2013 and November 2019. The optimal
cut-off value of PNI was determined using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the Youden
index. The relationship of high and low PNI with the clinical characteristics of the patients and prognosis
were analyzed.
Results: Patients with low PNI tended to have a worse event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS)
(EFS, P=0.029; OS, P<0.001). For patients treated with R-CHOP（Rituximab-cyclophosphamide,
doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone), PNI proved to be predictive for survival (EFS, P= 0.020; OS,
P<0.001), while no significant effect was found in DLBCL patients who received CHOP chemotherapy
(EFS, P=0.639; OS, P=0.114). Multivariate analysis showed that PNI was an independent risk factor for
OS and EFS of all 98 DLBCL patients after adjusting for model a (OS: adjust for age, gender, body mass
index, performance status, B symptoms, international prognostic index, hemoglobin；EFS：adjust for age,
gender, Ann Arbor stage, international prognostic index, lactate dehydrogenase, treatment, absolute
lymphocyte count, hemoglobin). PNI remained an independent risk factor for both OS and EFS in patients
after adjusting for model b (adjust for all items).
Conclusion: PNI is a simple and useful marker to predict survival outcome in DLBCL patients, and low
PNI is an independent predictor of a better outcome in terms of EFS and OS outcome in DLBCL, suggesting
that PNI is an effective prognostic factor in patients with DLBCL.
Reconstruction of Post-Electrical Burn Scalp Defect with Exposed Bone: A Case Report
Authors: Serras Rafaela Pais , Mendes Maria Manuel , Martins Pedro , Serras Rafaela Pais , Coelho Ruben
Published: May 2020

Introduction: Electrical burns are potentially devastating injuries and most often occur at the workplace.
Scalp defects following electrical burns are a rare occurrence and usually present as a reconstructive
challenge.
Case Presentation: Male, 31 years old, suffered a high voltage electrical burn at work that resulted in a
scalp defect with exposed bone and a third degree burn in the left leg and foot complicated by a compartment
syndrome, which needed an emergent fasciotomy and later an amputation below the knee. The scalp defect
was covered by a local transposition flap and a skin graft. At 3 months post-operatively flap survived
completely with no necrosis or other complications. A satisfactory cosmesis and preservation of scalp
contour were achieved.
Conclusion: Reconstructive ladder must be respected in reconstruction of these rare and complex defects.
Local transposition flaps, if available, are often an ideal choice for scalp reconstruction in that the adjacent
tissue is of similar quality to the original defect tissue with a long-term durability, contour preservation,
minimal donor site morbidity and an acceptable cosmesis.

Published: May 2020

The use of electric current will be related to heat input. Enough heat input is needed to form a good nugget structure so that it can produce maximum connection strength. The nugget structure is influenced by electrode pressure, holding time and the electric current used. By adjusting the parameters of the amount of electric current, the best connection quality will be produced. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of variations in electric current on the shear tensile strength of dissimilar welding Stainless steel (SS) and Aluminum (Al). The variation of electric current used is 60 A, 70 A and 80 A. The welding time used is 4 seconds. The test material uses stainless steel material with a thickness of 1.2 mm and aluminum with a thickness of 0.9 mm. This research was conducted at the Kotabaru Polytechnic Mechanical Laboratory and Malang State Polytechnic Material Test Laboratory. Tests carried out are shear tensile tests according to ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineering) standards. The results showed that an increase in electric current from 60 A to 70 A had an impact on the increase in shear tensile strength. While the increase in electric current from 70 A to 80 A shows a decrease in shear tensile strength. The results of shear tensile testing indicate that the best conditions occur at 70 A electric current which gives a shear tensile strength of 44.109 kN / mm2. The increase in the electric current at the dissimilar welding between Stainless Steel and Aluminum is not directly proportional to the increase in shear stress that occurs. This is because the melting point of each material is different. If the heat generated exceeds the melting point of the material used, the welding results will be damaged.

Abstract

Coffee is an important part of the national and international market commodity. Nationally, the types of local coffee vary according to the name of the producing region experiencing ups and downs in price. It needs technology planning to find out the price of coffee going forward. Forecasting or prediction in computer science is related to periodic estimates of production, supply and demand at certain times using accurate and tested measuring tools. Backpropagation method is used for price prediction. The backpropagation algorithm process includes inputting data, performing the normalization / transformation of data, iterating, training and determining network parameters, calculating errors, getting predictive results. The design of the ANN architecture determines the number of layers in the input layer, the hidden layer and the output layer. This research uses Matlab R2013a. Taking input, tracking errors and adjusting weights are useful for producing predictive value of coffee prices. Coffee prediction results from actual prices 74205 to the predicted price of 73668 with an accuracy of 99.9928, the actual price of 73892 to the predicted price of 73175 with an accuracy of 99.9903, the actual price of 77981 to the predicted result of 77481 with an accuracy of 99.9936.

Who Were the Doukhobors Discussed by Herzen in "My Past and Thoughts"?
Authors:   Institute of Russian Literature (the Pushkin House), Russian Academy of Sciences, Panchenko A. A. ,   European University at St. Petersburg
Published: May 2020

In the 4th part of "My Past and Thoughts", Herzen recalls his life in Novgorod in 1841–1842 and, inter alia, tells a story about a certain «Doukhobor leader», allegedly imprisoned by the Emperor Paul I. Even though the story looks rather far-fetched, it seems to stem from real historical events — the 1800 investigation into the religious dissenters from the Novgorod Gubernia and certain episodes from the life of Kondratiy Selivanov, the leader of the Scoptsy (Castrates) movement. The article deals with the social, historical, and religious contexts of the narrative told by Herzen.

Published: May 2020

In this article, K. M. Azadovsky analyses the reception of Fyodor Sologub’s early work (his short story The Shadows, and novel Bad Dreams) in the German-speaking world. Special attention is devoted to the Viennese translator Alexander Brauner (1871–1937), who in the 1890s was affi liated with the Young Austria group (A. Schnitzler, H. von Hofmansthal et al.). Relying on the archival data, the author traces Brauner’s personal connections with I. A. Vengerova and V. A. Vengerov, L. Ia. Gurevich and L. Andreas-Salomé. The author discusses Brauner’s articles in the journal Severnii Vestnik (The Northern Herald), his translations of Sologub’s work, and the reviews of these translations in the German press. 18 letters from A. Brauner to Sologub (1897–1912) are published as the Appendix.

Two Moorish Romances Translated by R. T. Gonorsky
Authors:   Moscow State University, Polilova V. S.
Published: May 2020

The article argues that R. T. Gonorsky made his translations of two Spanish Moorish romances (1816) from the Spanish originals reproduced in the fi fth volume of I. I. Eschenburg’s anthology Beispielsammlung zur Theorie und Literatur der schönen Wissenschaften (1788-94). This fact confirms K. S. Korkonosenko’s hypothesis that Gonorsky’s translations were the earliest translations of Spanish poetry into Russian made directly from the originals. It is important that, in his anthology, Eschenburg used the texts found in the book of ballads and popular songs The Reliques of Ancient English (1765) edited by Bishop Thomas Percy. Following Percy’s edition, the Spanish romance «Río verde, río verde...» was published (e. g. in Eschenburg’s anthology, 1790) and translated (e. g. in J. G. Herder’s Volkslieder, 1778) without the six lines that Percy considered superfluous. Gonorsky also used this abbreviated version of the romance.
