Source edition: Project Gutenberg #84. The Library's automated rights gate found all detected creative contributors in the official Project Gutenberg RDF to have died in 1955 or earlier, satisfying the ordinary German 70-year post-mortem term for calendar year 2026. Uncertain candidates are not published automatically. The EPUB is retained as a Project Gutenberg source edition, including its embedded notices and terms.
