摘　　要：塔西佗等西方古典作家笔下的"Germani",在中文著述中通常译为"日耳曼人",有的甚至误将其视为一个民族共同体。从塔西佗《日耳曼尼亚志》等古典著作的记载中发现,"Germani"起源于"日耳曼尼亚"这一地理概念,是生活在日耳曼尼亚这一地域范围内所有居民的通称。如果将"Germani"译为"日耳曼尼亚人",似乎更能够突出其因地而名的起源和笼统指代日耳曼尼亚地区所有居民的涵义。“Germani”written by Tacitus and other western classical writers is often translated to“日耳曼人”in Chinese writings,which is often misunderstood as a nation.In Germania of Tacitus and other classical works,it was found that the“Germani”originated from the geographical concept of“Germania”,and it was the general name of all the inhabitants who lived in the“Germania”.If“Germani”is translated to“日耳曼尼亚人”in Chinese writings,it is more likely to highlight the origin of the name“Germani”and the general meaning that it represented all the inhabitants in the“Germania”.

关 键 词：日耳曼人 日耳曼尼亚 塔西佗 《日耳曼尼亚志》
