Summary
This document appears to be page 27 of a scientific or academic paper attached to a House Oversight investigation (likely related to Epstein due to the prompt context, though not explicitly stated in the text). The text details the methodology for cleaning and verifying historical datasets of banned authors during the Nazi era (1925-1945), specifically referencing the 'Hermann lists' and the 'Berlin list.' It discusses technical decisions regarding data entry, including the handling of pseudonyms and the anomaly of Adolf Hitler appearing on a banned book list due to a French commentary edition of Mein Kampf.

Quote #1
"It is worth pointing out that Adolf Hitler appears as an author of one of the banned books from 1938. This is due to a French version of Mein Kampf, together with commentary, which was banned by the Nazi authorities."Source
