Riemann's lecture courses on complex function theory (Q1272413)

The article under review sketches and compares the contents of various notes of Riemann's lecture courses on complex function theory taken by his students in the years 1855-1862. In the text three original drawings of Riemann surfaces and periodicity modules of integrals are reproduced. The bibliography quotes the most valuable preprint \textit{E. Neuenschwander} (Darmstadt 1987). In the meantime this preprint (enlarged and revised) is published as book under the title ``Riemanns Einführung in die Funktionentheorie. Eine quellenkritische Edition seiner Vorlesungen mit einer Bibliographie zur Wirkungsgeschichte der Riemannschen Funktionentheorie'', Göttingen: Vandenhoeck \& Ruprecht (1996; Zbl 0844.01020).
