Philipp Andreas Oldenburger
| Alternative Name(s) | Constantinus Germanicus |
|---|---|
| Date | 1620 - 1678 |
| Biographical Notes | DOB uncertain. Controversial German lawyer and political historian. A student of Conring who later distanced himself from him. Many sources quote a story that he was sentenced to a whipping, and then to eat one of his writings that offended the authorities - it is unclear whether this was his "Constantini Germanici ad Justum Sincerum Epistola politica de Peregrationibus" which was in fact confiscated in several German states. Constantinus Germanicus was only one of a set of pseudonyms he used. See Stagl, Apodemiken. |
| Work(s) | Author of Ad Iustum Sincerum Epistola Politica de Peregrinationibus Germanorum recte & rite iuxta inferiorem civilem prudentiam instituendis (c. 1669) |
