Sébastien de Vauban and the “Veritable Method of Fortification”: Regarding the Attribution of the Treatise
The paper is dedicated to the issue of identifying the author of the treatise “Veritable Method of Fortification”, published in Russia in 1724. Russian historians traditionally believe that its author was the military engineer and marshal of France Sébastien de Vauban. However, recent research shows that he did not write the work, but it was chevalier de Cambrai, who brought forth the ideas of the great engineer. Thus, however famous the treatise may be, its authorship remains a question.
Keywords
