Bernhardi, Friedrich von (frē`drĭkh fən bĕrnhär`dē), 1849–1930, German general and military writer. His book Germany and the Next War (1912, tr. 1912) was widely publicized by the Allies as an example of Pan-Germanism and German ambition.
Bernhardi, Friedrich von(born 1849, Estonia, Russian Empire—died 1930) German soldier and military writer. He fought in the Franco-Prussian War and became commander of the Seventh Army corps in 1909. In 1911 he published Germany and the Next War, arguing that Germany had a right and responsibility to wage war to gain the power it deserved. The Allies later considered his book a contributing cause of World War I, in which Bernhardi served as a corps commander. Want to thank TFD for its existence?
