Regarding the term "German" for the epoch in question: it looks like that it is well-established jargon even in academia. I am currently reading "White Magic, Black Magic in the European renaissance" by Paola Zambelli (most interesting book!), and she consistently uses words such as "German" and "Germany". She even calls Paracelsus a "German" author.
But I'd suggest the participants to this discussion to focus on the crossbowman. Any dispute arising out of, or in connection with, the "German theory", including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, shall be referred to and finally resolved by a separate thread.
