Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "Ambition" is a sweeping historical novel set against the turbulent backdrop of 17th-century Europe, specifically during the rise of the Great Elector, Frederick William of Brandenburg. Written by the historian Bernhard Guttmann and translated into English by Ludwig Lewisohn, the work delves into the complex political landscape of a Germany recovering from the devastation of the Thirty Years' War. It explores the interplay between personal desires and the cold requirements of statecraft as the Elector seeks to forge a powerful, unified nation from a collection of fragmented territories.Through vivid characterizations and a deep understanding of the era's diplomatic nuances, "Ambition" captures the transition from the old feudal order to the modern centralized state. The narrative focuses on the psychological toll of leadership and the ruthlessness required to navigate the treacherous waters of European court politics. By blending historical fact with literary insight, the book provides a compelling portrait of one of history's most pivotal figures and the birth of Prussian influence.
