Product Overview

The Prince / Nicolo Machiavelli / World Classics / English Edition [Paperback]

Product Description

Classic guide to acquiring and maintaining political power is refreshing in its directness, yet often disturbing in its cold practicality. 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. Introduction note. About the Author: Niccol Machiavelli (1469-1527) was a Florentine statesman who was later forced out of public life. He then devoted himself to studying and writing political philosophy, history, fiction, and drama. George Bull, author and journalist, has translated six volumes for Penguin Classics. Anthony Grafton teaches European intellectual history at Princeton University
