Hilbert became much interested in Cantor's set theory in the late 1890s, and he found some paradoxes of his own, which he presented at a lecture course in Göttingen in 1904-1905. The authors describe the context of this work, especially the relationship to Cantor's paradox of ``too large'' sets. They also transcribe the main passage from the lecture course, and give an English translation; sadly, the two texts are not placed en face.
