It's not an entirely egregious bit of hyperbole to say that, since the publication of Vom Kriege in 1832, all writings on the way of war have been nothing more than commentaries on Clausewitz. But it is astonishing that a single soldier's writings — a model of both clear Kantian logic but also convoluted Kantian prose — should remain so influential for so long.
