Conrad Celtes

Conrad Celtes (; ; 1 February 1459 – 4 February 1508) was a German Renaissance humanist scholar and poet of the German Renaissance born in Franconia (nowadays part of Bavaria). He led the theatrical performances at the Viennese court and reformed the syllabi.

Celtis is considered by many to be the greatest of German humanists and thus dubbed "the Archhumanist" (''Erzhumanist''). He is also praised as "the greatest lyric genius and certainly the greatest organizer and popularizer of German Humanism". Provided by Wikipedia
