Complementary reading: "A Most Dangerous Book. Tacitus's Germania from the Roman Empire to the Third Reich" by Christopher B. Krebs (W.W. Norton & Company, NY, 2011)
(German translation: "Ein gefährliches Buch. Die 'Germania' des Tacitus und die Erfindung der Deutschen"; DVA, München 2012)
Especially interesting for pointing out a rather ambiguous role of early humanism (as related to the reception of the Germania) in German history.
