Oct 30, 2020 at 20:16 comment added Gottfried Helms @Lucian - thanks; I seem to have googled for the german notation (not expecting, that I would easily understand a complicated concept in english) A german equivalent (perhaps) to the Mirriam-Webster (and familiar to me) is the "Brockhaus", but it didn't show up any entry. Google gave a handful of german texts for me, but where the word was in contexts (again in Graetz but also elsewhere) but not in explanation. So thanks again for your hints! For me the thing can be closed now.
Oct 30, 2020 at 18:14 comment added user18041 Never heard this word before; Google, Wikipedia are of not much help here: what does it mean? - By clicking the very first result of a simple Google search, providing a link to Merriam-Webster, the word's meaning was soon revealed to mean scribal. Wikipedia also provides meaningful results.
