Thank you very much for reading bombing the people giulio douhet and the foundations of air power strategy 18841939. As you may know, people have look numerous times for their chosen novels like this bombing the people giulio douhet and the foundations of air power strategy 18841939, but end up in malicious downloads. Rather than reading a good book with a cup of tea in the afternoon, instead they cope with some harmful bugs inside their laptop.

In 1822, Goethe published an autobiographical account of the Campaign in France in 1792, which he had eye-witnessed from the camp of the coalition troops waging war against revolutionary France.1 Even if it was written 30 years after the events,2 Goethe’s narrative nevertheless gives an excellent insight into the construction of the volunteer of the French Revolution as a mythical figure.3 The French military was, in fact, the subject of many publications during the time of the revolutionary wars, and Goethe’s account can be said to correspond with general interpretative tendencies among those writers who were moderately favourable to the revolutionary achievements.4 The Prussian defeat in Valmy on 20 September was commented on by Goethe with the famous dictum “here and now a new era of world history has begun.” The success of the French had proven the inefficiency and the anachronism of both the military and the political system of the Ancien Regime. But how did Goethe and his contemporaries view the volunteers of the French Revolution? The vision was actually quite contradictory. The volunteers embodied indiscipline, and thus the brute animalistic force of the rabble, since soldiers were identified with disciplined behaviour.5 However, a heroic sense of honour was also recognized in their behaviour6 as the consequence of their “political enthusiasm”.7 It was exactly the ambiguous combination of these two characteristics — heroic enthusiasm and indiscipline — that was considered to constitute their particular power.
