Both the unique IGR number in parentheses (e.g. 0141) and the abbreviated designation I use to identify each of the 23 publications Professor Goldberg consulted (e.g. RT-Galicia 1998) coincide with ballad ID numbers and with the abbreviated designation used to identify these publications throughout my online romancero project. Position the mouse over any asterisk (*) at the end of a line to see the standardized title, also used throughout this online Pan-Hispanic Ballad Project.
