News / GERMANS WANT TO GERMANIZE KOPERNIK (COPERNICUS)! OUTRAGE! [1016]

Bratwurst Boy - you keep attributing the writing in the Copernicus Manuscript (Nicolai Copernick Canonici Varmiensis, in Borussia Germaniae mathematici) to Copernicus himself but that is completely false. The Copernicus Manuscript is just one copy of De Rev. that made it through the centuries and is now housed in the Jagiellonian. The original owner of this copy of De Rev. was Jakob Christmann (a German) and he is the one that wrote this in this one single copy of the manuscript long after Compernicus himself died. NO other versions of De Rev. have this text. Also, back to a point on the Lizard Union - it was initially founded in 1397 by Prussian nobles but by the time Copernicus' father joined, in the mid 1400's, it included Poles who worked directly with the King of Poland to incorporate Prussia into the Polish Kingdom. Not sure how much more proof one would need to call Compernicus' father a Pole by nationality and allegiance (and ethnicity as Silesia was 80%+ Polish).
