Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author examines the development of the Prussian officers' corps and General Staff system during the Prussian Reform Movement of 1806-1819. Using this movement as a case study in defense reform, the author determines the basis of the Prussian tradition of excellence central to understanding the qualities of Prusso-German officership which generated the tactics and methods of command and control many now wish to emulate. The author determines the historical roots and the essence of Prussian officership. The major conclusion of this study is that the essence of Prussian officership is individual, not institutional, excellence informed by the spirit of Bildung, that is, an acceptance of the lifelong requirements of an educated, cultured officer corps. Keywords; Prussia; Defense Reform; Command and control; General staff; Military education; Officership. (EG).

Book excerpt: "Napoleon's defeat of the Prussian army at Jena and Auerstadt in October of 1806 ruptured the traditional Germanic hegemony that had long held sway over the balance of power among the German states and northern Europe. The reputation of the army and the strength of the Prussian nation, born out of the victories of Frederick the Great, completely collapsed in one short day of battle. Overcoming the devastation of defeat, the Prussian king and his newly appointed military reformers implemented a comprehensive restructuring of the army that transformed not just the leadership, but also the recruitment, organizational structure and tactics of the once-vaunted Frederician army. While individual reforms varied in effectiveness, in their totality, the efforts of Prussia would directly lead to victory in 1813 over the French and the eventual victories of the entire Allied coalition."--Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines Prussia's response to Napoleon and Napoleonic expansionism in the years before the crushing defeats of Auerstadt and Jena, a period of German history as untypical as it was dramatic. Between the years 1797 and 1806 the main fear of Prussian statesmen was French power, rather than revolution from below. This threat spawned a foreign-policy debate characterised by geopolitical thinking: the belief that Prussian policy was conditioned by her unique geographic situation at the heart of Europe. The book breaks new ground both methodologically and empirically. By combining high-political and geopolitical analysis, it is able to present a more comprehensive and nuanced picture than earlier interpretations. The book also draws on a very wide range of sources, official and unofficial, many previously unused.

This book was released on 2017-07-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stein and the Era of Reform in Prussia, 1807-1815 The literature of prussian-german history in Eng lish is very scanty and most of it relates to the last seventy-five years. The period covered by this brief biography has been treated by Seeley in his Life and Times of Stein. That diffuse work is nevertheless a very substantial composite of the German historical work available forty years ago. It does a little more for Stein biographically than can be found in Pertz's undigested collection of documents. The appearance of Lehmann's great biography and the controversial literature it aroused and of many special studies and new interpretations of men and of phases of the his tory of the years after Frederick the Great have made both Pertz and Seeley unsatisfactory. With this new material at hand it was clearly worth while to study anew the work of Stein. In doing this I have especially sought to give even in this brief compass a more ade quate account than has hitherto been available in Eng lish of the economic conditions preceding the edict of 1807 and to point out that its importance is as a pro gram rather than as a reorganization of the Prussia of that day.

Download or read book The Politics of the Prussian Nobility written by Robert M. Berdahl and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measured by its capacity to endure, the Prussian nobility was the most successful in the modern history of continental Europe. Throughout the long vicissitudes of its history, this class--the Junkers--displayed a remarkable ability to adapt to new circumstances and maintain its own political power. Robert Berdahl presents a comprehensive interpretation of the tenacity of the Prussian nobles from the late eighteenth century until the revolution of 1848. At one level, he provides a richly detailed economic, social, and political history: the story of how the landowning nobility coped with changes in rural social relations after the emancipation of the serfs in 1807 and of how it survived the agrarian depression of the 1820s by the development of capitalist agriculture. At another level, he shows how the Junkers developed an ideology of conservatism that justified their control of a society that was becoming increasingly bourgeois. The domination of society by members of the nobility was traditionally supported by their experience in governing landed estates and particularly by the imagery of paternalism. Capitalist agriculture undermined the old landlord-peasant relations, but the nobility continued to exploit paternalistic images of domination. Originally published in 1988.
