Why this record matters

The linked authority identifier is Q91360. VIAF identifies the subject as 143046159. The Library of Congress control number is n78042435.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
