| description | The essay aims at identifying in the combat experience of Raimondo Montecuccoli on the field of Breitenfeld the lessons subsequently absorbed by his military thought.

Special attention is also devoted to the previous interpretative proposals of Montecuccoli’s thought and their intellectual foundations. |
