  • Strategy and Tactics in the Thirty Years' War: the »Military Revolution«
    Aufsätze David A. Parrott Strategy and Tactics in the Thirty Years' War: The »Military Revolution« For iwenty years Professor Michael Roberts' work on the »Military Revolution« of the period 1560 — 1660 enjoyed undisputed pre-eminence as the accepted interpreta- tion of military developments in early modern Europe^. In 1976, an article by Geof- frey Parker made the first — and to my knowledge, only — general criticisms of Ro- berts' thesis that a series of tactical changes had a revolutionary impact upon Euro- pean warfare^. Professor Parker expressed reasoned doubts about whether these changes could be described as revolutionary, since serious inconsistencies emerge in any attempt to assess their practical impact. Why, in 1634, did the tactically conserva- tive Spanish army wipe out the »new model« Swedish at Nördlingen^? Why were the developments in tactics and strategy unable to bring the European conflict to any de- cisive conclusion? Parker's suggestion is that Roberts greatly over-emphasized inflexi- bility and traditionalism in the »conservative« armies, particularly the Spanish. He proposes that it is possible to trace a receptiveness to similar tactical developments back at least to the condottiere of the fifteenth Century, and that a willingness to ap- proach common military problems was not confined to the Dutch and the Swedes. In matters of developing firepower, the quality of cavalry, the deployment of small units and in effective training, the Spanish army was quite as progressive as its rivals Yet the effect of this is to confirm by implication the importance of the tactical changes commonly ascribed to the Nassau and to Gustavus Adolphus.
