Addresses to the German Nation
The Addresses to the German Nation (German: Reden an die deutsche Nation, 1808) is a political literature book by German philosopher Johann Gottlieb Fichte that advocates German nationalism in reaction to the occupation and subjugation of German territories by Napoleon's French Empire.[1][2] Fichte evoked a sense of German distinctiveness in language, tradition, and literature that composed a common identity.[1]
