OverviewThis is the first edition of Conrad Celtis' (1459-1508) -Germania generalis- 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 -Germania generalis- itself.
