It may be of some interest that in my undergraduate days (~1944) Knopp's
Funktionentheorie I (in German) was the textbook for the one semester
course in complex variable theory at City College in New York.. As it
was in war time, the copyright was seized by a government agency, and an
English translation by Dover soon appeared. By the time I was taking
this course, the English translation had supplanted the German original.
