Astonishing in its candor The Prince even today remains a disturbingly realistic and prophetic work on what it takes to be a prince . . . a king . . . a president. When in 1512 Machiavelli was removed from his post in his beloved Florence he resolved to set down a treatise on leadership that was practical not idealistic. The Prince he envisioned would be unencumbered by ordinary ethical and moral values; his prince would be man and beast fox and lion. Today this small sixteenth-century masterpiece has become essential reading for every student of government and is the ultimate book on power politics.</p> Alter Yayinlari paperback

New/New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> Niccolò Machiavelli</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> Stanford Inversiones Spa</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Hardcover</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9781684112876</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 2017</p><p><strong>Number Of Pages:</strong> 82</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> As a young Florentine envoy to the courts of France and the Italian principalities Niccolò Machiavelli was able to observe firsthand the lives of people strongly united under one powerful ruler. His fascination with that political rarity and his intense desire to see the Medici family assume a similar role in Italy provided the foundation for his "primer for princes." In this classic guide to acquiring and maintaining political power Machiavelli used a rational approach to advise prospective rulers developing logical arguments and alternatives for a number of potential problems among them governing hereditary monarchies dealing with colonies and the treatment of conquered peoples. Refreshing in its directness yet often disturbing in its cold practicality The Prince sets down a frighteningly pragmatic formula for political fortune. Starkly relevant to the political upheavals of the 20th century this calculating prescription for power remains today nearly 500 years after it was written a timely and startling lesson in the practice of autocratic rule that continues to be much read and studied by students scholars and general readers as well.</p> Stanford Inversiones Spa hardcover

Fortunate is the kingdom ruled by a virtuous prince virtue here defined as being able to pursue his own interests without conflict. In Machiavelli's view virtue is that which increases power; vice is that which decreases it. Far shorter than most classic works and more accessible to current readers because of their familiarity with politics this work yields benefits and insights to all who read digest and critically examine the precepts it explains.

But while his treatise The Prince made his name synonymous with autocratic ruthlessness and cynical manipulation The Discourses c.1517 shows a radically different outlook on the world of politics. In this carefully argued commentary on Livy's history of republican Rome Machiavelli proposed a system of government that would uphold civic freedom and security by instilling the virtues of active citizenship and that would also encourage citizens to put the needs of the state above selfish personal interests. Ambitious in scope but also clear-eyed and pragmatic The Discourses creates a modern theory of republic politics.For more than seventy years Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1700 titles Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.</p> Penguin Classics paperback

New/New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> Niccolò Machiavelli</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Hardcover</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9781530290963</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 2016</p><p><strong>Number Of Pages:</strong> 96</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> "The Prince" Italian: "Il Principe" is a 16th-century political treatise by the Italian diplomat and political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli. From correspondence a version appears to have been distributed in 1513 using a Latin title "De Principatibus" "About Principalities". However the printed version was not published until 1532 five years after Machiavelli's death. This was done with the permission of the Medici pope Clement VII but "long before then in fact since the first appearance of the 'Prince' in manuscript controversy had swirled about his writings".Although it was written as if it were a traditional work in the "mirrors for princes" style it is generally agreed that it was especially innovative. This is only partly because it was written in the vernacular Italian rather than Latin a practice which had become increasingly popular since the publication of Dante's "Divine Comedy" and other works of Renaissance literature."The Prince" is sometimes claimed to be one of the first works of modern philosophy especially modern political philosophy in which the effective truth is taken to be more important than any abstract ideal. It was also in direct conflict with the dominant Catholic and scholastic doctrines of the time concerning how to consider politics and ethics.Although it is relatively short the treatise is the most remembered of Machiavelli's works and the one most responsible for bringing the word "Machiavellian" into usage as a pejorative. It also helped make "Old Nick" an English term for the devil and even contributed to the modern negative connotations of the words "politics" and "politician" in western countries. In terms of subject matter it overlaps with the much longer "Discourses on Livy" which was written a few years later. In its use of near-contemporary Italians as examples of people who perpetrated criminal deeds for politics another lesser-known work by Machiavelli which "The Prince" has been compared to is the "Life of Castruccio Castracani".</p> CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform hardcover

Refreshingly accessible these superb new translations are faithful to Machiavelli’s original beautifully crafted writings.The volume features essays that appear in English for the first time such as “A Caution to the Medici†and “The Persecution of Africa.†Also included are complete versions of the political treatise The Prince the comic satire The Mandrake The Life of Castruccio Castracani and the classic story “Belfagor†along with selections from The Discourses The Art of War and Florentine Histories. Augmented with useful features–vital and concise annotations and cross-references–this unique compendium is certain to become the standard one-volume reference to this influential versatile and ever timely writer.“Machiavelli's stress on political necessity rather than moral perfection helped inspire the Renaissance by renewing links with Thucydides and other classical thinkers. This new collection provides deeper insight into Machiavelli’s personality as a writer thus broadening our understanding of him.â€â€“Robert D. Kaplan author of Warrior Politics: Why Leadership Demands a Pagan Ethos “Constantine’s selection is not only intelligent; his translations are astonishingly good. Thoughtfully introduced by Albert Russell Ascoli this edition belongs in everyone’s library.â€â€“John Jeffries Martin professor and chair department of history Trinity University“If one were to assign a single edition of Machiavelli's works this most certainly would be it.â€â€“John P.
