Master and commander

Title

Master and commander

Description

A scholar of the Machiavelli’s Art of war hardly thinks of comparing it to Sunzi bingfa, due to the radical diversity between a text placed in a precise and well-known historical context (Machiavelli) and of strong thought, and another (Sunzi bingfa) which is a centuries-old stratification of fairly or ambiguous trivia, about which is said that the warlike emperor Kangxi (1662-1723) deemed it completely useless in war.
