Adam of BodensteinAdam von Bodenstein — As the "von" in this case connects to a quasi-noble German family name, it should be retained rather than translated into English. "Von Bodenstein" is more common in English-language scholarship, as a quick survey of google books will show. Gamonetus (talk) 03:03, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support, "of" is not a good or normal translation of "von" in this context.--Kotniski (talk) 08:52, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
