Bücher von Carl Von Clausewitz

" Le combat est l¿instrument de la stratégie pour arriver au but de la guerre. À proprement parler, c¿est là l¿unique usage que la stratégie ait à faire du combat. Or comme ce sont les forces armées qui livrent le com- bat et que celui-ci réagit, à son tour, sur les forces armées, la théorie de la stratégie doit nécessairement prendre en considération les forces armées dans leurs principales relations. Elle doit pareillement tenir compte des facultés intellectuelles et morales qui distinguent les forces années, car ce sont là les plus importants facteurs du combat. En procédant ainsi, la théorie enseigne l¿unique moyen de calculer les résultats possibles du combat."

Das Buch Vom Kriege, das Buch aller Bücher über den Krieg, dem die nachfolgenden Sätze in der Hauptsache entnommen sind, ist im Jahre 1832 erschienen, also erst nach dem ¿ am 16. November 1831 erfolgten ¿ Tode des Verfassers, des preußischen Generalmajors Karl von Clausewitz. Wie so viele Werke großer Geister ist auch dieses, das Hauptwerk des größten Theoretikers der Kriegskunst, ein Fragment. Eine Sammlung von Werkstücken, Hauptlineamente hat der Verfasser selbst sie genannt. Zur letzten Durcharbeitung, Sichtung und Zusammenfassung ist er nicht gekommen. Ursprünglich hatte Clausewitz auch gar nicht die Absicht, ein vollständiges, einheitliches Buch über den Lieblingsgegenstand der Gedankenarbeit seines ganzen Lebens zu schreiben. Er wollte zunächst nichts, als ihn »in ganz kurzen, präzisen, gedrungenen Sentenzen, nach der Art Montesquieus« behandeln. Diese Körner ¿ wie er sie einmal bezeichnet ¿ sollten »schon mit der Sache bekannte geistvolle Menschen anziehen, ebensosehr durch das, was weiter aus ihnen entwickelt werden könnte, als durch das, was sie feststellen«. Ein System ist erst allmählich, sozusagen gegen den Willen des Schreibenden, in seine »Materialien« gekommen.

On War (1832) is a treatise on the philosophical aspects of warfare by Prussian general, scholar, and strategist Carl von Clausewitz. Published posthumously by the author's wife-who edited his manuscript and wrote the book's introduction-On War is one of history's most important works on warfare and military strategy, and continues to be studied to this day.With a background in art, culture, and history, and with extensive experience as a combat veteran, Clausewitz sought to understand the military success of such figures as Napoleon and Frederick the Great. What interested Clausewitz the most was how these leaders effectively mobilized entire nations to launch military campaigns larger and more violent than any in European history. Although he initially began with the theory that war was one aspect of a population's struggle for survival, he eventually came to believe that war was a method of imposing the will of one state on another. By privileging politics and philosophy in his study of warfare, Clausewitz changed the way military figures, politicians, and scholars thought of and perpetrated the process of war. Most crucially, Clausewitz suggests that war serves no purpose in and of itself, but rather acts as an instrument of a political party or group. In addition, Clausewitz believed that strong moral and political motivations-especially in the case of defense-greatly increased the chance of victory. On War was read and interpreted by Vladimir Lenin, Mao Zedong, and Dwight Eisenhower, and has, for over a century and a half, continued to shape the concept and conduct of war.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Carl von Clausewitz's On War is a classic of history, philosophy, and military theory reimagined for modern readers.
