" We propose to consider first the single elements of our subject, then each branch or part, and, last of all, the whole, in all its relations therefore to advance from the simple to the complex. But it is necessary for us to commence with a glance at the nature of the whole, because it is particularly necessary that in the consideration of any of the parts their relation to the whole should be kept constantly in view. We shall not enter into any of the abstruse definitions of War used by publicists. We shall keep to the element of the thing itself, to a duel. War is nothing but a duel on an extensive scale. If we would conceive as a unit the countless number of duels which make up a War, we shall do so best by supposing to ourselves two wrestlers. Each strives by physical force to compel the other to submit to his will: each endeavours to throw his adversary, and thus render him incapable of further resistance."

" 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.

Dieses Buch ""Grundgedanken über Krieg und Kriegführung "" wurde in der gesamten Menschheitsgeschichte als wichtig angesehen, und damit dieses Werk niemals vergessen wird, haben wir uns bemüht, es zu bewahren, indem wir dieses Buch in einem modernen Format für gegenwärtige und zukünftige Generationen neu herausgeben. Dieses ganze Buch wurde neu formatiert, neu abgetippt und gestaltet. Diese Bücher bestehen nicht aus gescannten Kopien ihrer Originalarbeit und daher ist der Text klar und lesbar.
