Abstract
Prior to the 19th century war was seen as inevitable, a part of life. By the end of the 19th century, those who still proposed war as a positive, enriching experience, believed any war that would be fought would be characterized by the achievement of brevity: two or three month long wars at the max would be all that would be required to achieve its aims.
