Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the contributions of renowned humanists Konrad Peutinger and Wilibald Pirckheimer to the burgeoning field of geography during the Renaissance. In an era marked by the rediscovery of classical learning, Peutinger and Pirckheimer played pivotal roles in advancing geographic knowledge through their meticulous research and innovative ideas. The author delves into Peutinger's renowned work, "Sermones Convivales," where he passionately defended German territorial claims against French encroachment, drawing evidence from ancient sources to bolster his arguments. Pirckheimer's significant contributions are also examined, including his groundbreaking edition of Ptolemy's "Geographia," which featured his own translation and annotations. Additionally, the author analyzes Pirckheimer's "Germania Explicatio," a pioneering attempt to identify ancient Germanic settlements and geographical features. Through their dedication to historical accuracy, linguistic expertise, and innovative approaches, Peutinger and Pirckheimer laid the foundation for modern geographic study. This book provides valuable insights into the intellectual climate of the Renaissance and the significant impact of these two scholars on the evolution of geography.
