Bøger af Niccolo Machiavelli

Opera destinata all'uomo di stato, Il Principe di Machiavelli nasce invece lontano dalla scena politica, negli anni appartati dell'L'Albergaccio, una villa della campagna attorno a San Casciano; il testo che più d'ogni altro avrebbe offerto una descrizione lucida e, secondo alcuni, spietata, nella sua a-moralità, della gestione del potere, fu steso invece nel periodo della sconfitta e del confino. In 26 serrati capitoli l'autore organizza un'opera in cui Barberi Squarotti ha ravvisato la perfetta struttura della tragedia: dapprima la parti teoriche consacrate alla creazione e ai differenti modelli di principato (capp. I-XI), al problema delle milizie (dall'XI all'XIV), alla figura del principe (capp. XV-XXIII) e, in seguito, i tre capitoli in chiusura che focalizzano cause e motivi delle sconfitte dei principi italiani suggellati dall'esortazione finale a un'ideale guida che riprenda e risollevi le sorti patrie, compongono l'avventura perfetta dell'eroe classico (Aonia edizioni).

"e;Il fine giustifica i mezzi"e;. E sicuramente la citazione machiavellica piu famosa, quella piu ripetuta. Eppure, sfogliando le pagine del 'Principe', quella citazione non si trova. Il motivo e che quella celebre frase Machiavelli non l'ha mai detta, figuriamoci scritta. Non e altro che un sunto un po' pressapochista del suo pensiero. Invece, quello che troverete sfogliando 'Il principe' e un'elaborata e pionieristica visione della scienza politica che ha guidato le decisioni di decine di sovrani e politici occidentali degli ultimi 500 anni.-

Written in Machiavelli's characteristically lucid and terse style, Life of Castruccio Castracani is a revealing account of the political ferment and fractious factionalism of fourteenth-century Italy.

As a manual on realpolitik, this sixteenth-century work has provoked more heated debates than any other political treatise. While it rejects lofty ideals, it nonetheless derives valuable insights from the author's first-hand experience as a respected envoy of Florence. Italy in the renaissance period was a battleground of warring factions, both within states and without, so successful governance was no easy task. Niccolò Machiavelli examines how princedoms in Renaissance Italy can be effectively governed and maintained. This he does by noting the "…actions of great men, acquired in the course of (his) long experience of modern affairs and a continual study of antiquity." Arguing from such empirical evidence, he shows what works to achieve stable control, and what does not. Harsh measures are sometimes necessary but contrary to a common misconception held by many of his critics, he warns against ignoring the welfare and goodwill of the populace. Indeed, some commentators feel Machiavelli was unjustly maligned, pointing out that here was a man who was unremitting in his efforts to secure a good and popular government for his native Florence, and who wanted Italy's honour and pride restored. It was to these ends that he wrote The Prince.

Die Discorsi: Politische Betrachtungen über die alte und die italienische Geschichte (Abhandlungen über die ersten zehn Bücher des Titus Livius) ist das literarische Hauptwerk von Niccolò Machiavelli, in dem er seine Gedanken zur Politik, zum Krieg und zur politischen Führung zusammenfasst. In seinem umfangreichen Werk entwickelt Machiavelli, der ein überzeugter Republikaner war, seine Vorstellung über ein ideales Staatswesen, wobei der römische Geschichtsschreiber Titus Livius (59 v. Chr. bis 17 n. Chr.) ihm den roten Faden lieferte, "denn nur Livius befaßte sich mit der Gründung des römischen Staates." Machiavelli analysiert in drei Teilen (Buch I - III) die verschiedenen Staats- und Regierungsformen (Republik, Alleinherrschaft, Volksherrschaft, Aristokratie, Tyrannis, Oligarchie und Anarchie). Machiavelli macht in seiner Discorsi immer wieder deutlich, dass alles zum Wohle des Volkes zu geschehen habe (nicht zum Wohle seiner Herrscher) und bringt es mit der bekannten Formulierung auf den Punkt: Republiken sind Staaten, in denen das Volk Fürst ist! Er kritisiert, die Menschen hätten sich bisher leider nicht die Mühe gemacht, die Technik des richtigen Handelns in der Politik zu erlernen, sondern eher nach Gefühl, Instinkt, Gewohnheit und Laune gehandelt, die Alten zwar bewundert, aber ihre Taten nicht systematisch ausgewertet. Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527) war ein florentinischer Philosoph, Politiker, Diplomat, Geschichtsschreiber und Dichter.

The Prince is one of the first works of political philosophy, in which the effective truth is taken to be more important than any abstract ideal. Written by by the Italian diplomat, historian andpolitical theorist Niccolo Machiavelli, the treatise is the most remembered of his works and the one most responsible for bringing the word Machiavellian into wide usage.

Collected Here are four of Niccolò Machiavelli most important works. The Prince It was Niccolò Machiavelli who essentially removed ethics from government. He did it with this book, when he asserted that The Prince (president, dictator, prime minister, etc.) does not have to be concerned with ethics, as long as their motivation is to protect the state. It is this questionable belief that in many ways had lead to the modern world as we know it.
