Is "On War" Just Quantum Physics in Disguise?
Alright, let's talk Clausewitz. My friend recently said that trying to understand Clausewitz is like trying to understand quantum physics: nobody reallygets it. And honestly, after wrestling with "On War," I'm starting to think they're right. First off, the dude writes like he's trying to win a Nobel Prize for complicated sentences. Seriously, is it just a bad translation from 1830s German, or was Carl naturally convoluted? I even wondered if, after getting his "von" and becoming nobility, he was trying to sound more important than he was. Maybe that accounts for some of the language.
