Karl Julius Schroer's own 1862 compilation of the three Oberufer plays, published in Vienna, is a primary field transcription rather than a secondary study. Its strength is that it is a named scholar's direct record of an oral performance tradition kept alive on a Danube island community, the actual source text later carried forward through Rudolf Steiner and the Waldorf school curriculum. Its limit is that even its own publication year is contested across bibliographic records, some giving 1857 or 1858 for an earlier printing; 1862 is what this record verifies against a digitised copy of the volume itself, and that uncertainty is named rather than smoothed over.

Reliability Tier2
Karl Julius Schroer's own 1862 compilation of the three Oberufer plays, published by W. Braumuller in Vienna, is a primary field transcription of an oral performance tradition rather than a secondary study, later carried forward through Rudolf Steiner and the Waldorf school curriculum, the middle tier reflecting that it is a named scholar's direct record of the tradition rather than an institution's own account, notwithstanding that even its own publication year is contested across bibliographic records, with some giving 1857 or 1858 for an earlier printing. NotesSchroer's own compilation of the three Oberufer plays, transcribed from the oral performance tradition of the Danube island community. Publication year is itself contested across bibliographic records, some giving 1857 or 1858 for an earlier printing; 1862 and the publisher W. Braumuller of Vienna are the facts directly verified here against a digitized copy of the volume. Tier 2 as a named scholar's primary field transcription rather than a secondary study.
