Description
Described both as a practical rule-book containing timeless precepts for the diplomat and as a handbook of evil, this work of great originality–based on first-hand experience–provides a remarkably uncompromising picture of the true nature of power. Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli was an Italian political philosopher, musician, poet, and playwright. He is a figure of the Italian Renaissance and a central figure of its political component, most widely known for his treatises on realist political theory (The Prince) on the one hand and republicanism (Discourses on Livy) on the other.
