Two-bar long slur in AI, A (→GE) & FE

Two slurs in EE

..

The broken slur of EE may result from misunderstanding of the manuscript, perhaps inaccurate. In A, bar 11 closes the line; this layout, conducive to ambiguities in the slurs' notation, was probably repeated in the manuscripts which served as base texts for FE and EE.

No marks in GC (→GE)

Long accents in FE

Short accents in EE

..

No accents in GC (→GE) is almost certainly an oversight of the copyist, who overlooked all signs between the staves in bars 7-13. The short accents in EE are certainly a result of the standard interpretation of the notation of FE.

Slur from demisemiquaver in A (→GEFE1FE2)

Slur from semiquaver in EE & FESB

..

In the main text we keep the notation of A (→GEFE1FE2), in which the slur starts from the tied d4 demisemiquaver. Chopin would often apply such a type of notation of slurs throughout his entire life. The equivalent notation of EE and FESB probably reflects the individual preferences of the engravers of those editions.

No sign in FE (→GE)

..

No  sign in FE (→EE) is certainly an oversight of the engraver – there is a respective sign in analogous bar 200, but both bars were printed on the basis of the one and only notation of [A].
