This is the first edition of Conrad Celtis' (1459-1508) AGermania
generalisA to appear with translation and a critical commentary.
The text is important for the major import it had on the discourse
about the German nation and the attempt to define that concept in
historical and geographic terms. The first part reviews the forms
in which the text has been handed down and studies the history and
transmission of the extant versions, thus preparing the way for the
presentation of the present edition proper. The second part is
largely made up of studies on Celtis' conception of Germany,
exploring the sources of this central topic in Celtis' oeuvre and
highlighting its crucial aspects with a detailed interpretation of
AGermania generalisA itself.
