My assumption was, that the text published by Paternoster Library was the actual original, while the German version was a poor translation from that. This translation was extended a little bit, hence had more content than the origional one. It also didn't have the style and liguistic quality of it and was therefore hard to read. From that German version three different English translations were made. So, overall four English versions were written, while one was the origional, from which the German version was derived. Why the British had published the origional is actually beyond me. I can only explain it by hybris. ... TH
