Special noteNot to be confused with Ludolf, von Sachsen, approximately 1300-1377 or 1378; in 1989 the two authors were conflated in an update to n 84175313 (adding a 400 for this author: Ludolph, von Suchem, approximately 1300-1377 or 1378); as of July 2016 many bibliographic records in the WorldCat reflect this confusion.
