Niccolò Machiavelli (born May 3, 1469, Florence-died June 21, 1527, Florence) Italian statesman, historian, and political theorist. He rose to power after the overthrow of Girolamo Savonarola, was appointed secretary and Second Chancellor to the Florentine Republic in 1498. Working as a diplomat for 14 years, he came in contact with the most powerful figures in Europe. He was dismissed when the Medici family returned to power in 1512, and during the next year he was arrested and tortured for conspiracy. Though soon released, he was not permitted to return to public office. His famous treatise The Prince (1513, published 1532) is a handbook for rulers; though dedicated to Lorenzo de' Medici, ruler of Florence from 1513, it failed to win Machiavelli his favour. Machiavelli viewed The Prince as an objective description of political reality. Because he viewed human nature as venal, grasping, and thoroughly self-serving, he suggested that ruthless cunning is appropriate to the conduct of government. Though admired for its incisive brilliance, the book also has been widely condemned as cynical and amoral, and “Machiavellian” has come to mean deceitful, unscrupulous, and manipulative. His other works include a set of discourses on Livy (completed c. 1518), the comedy The Mandrake (completed c. 1518), The Art of War (published 1521), and the Florentine Histories (completed c. 1525).

马基雅维利的《君主论》是西方现代政治思潮的里程碑。我一直想弄清楚这个现代究竟准确地指向哪里?至少不是我们的教科书中那样信誓旦旦宣称的1949年后,似乎自那之后便全是一片新天地,非现代不可。另一种说法是,生活在1469到1527年间的马基雅维利是近代政治学的鼻祖,这个说...
评分中国的革命,大多是自下而上的,于是需要《论语》,需要论语河蟹下里巴人们的思想 而《君主论》,则是写给想要变革的上位者看的,告诉他们怎么让下面的人听话 本质来说,都是同一本书,同一个思想,只不过是对象不一样,所以看上去有些不同 但是,基本上,两本可以对照来看,很...
评分还没读完,就急不可待的想写一点感想。原谅我的随意。 也许是翻译的缘故,我觉得马基亚维利从头到尾似乎都是一个很矛盾的人,不敢肯定什么,同时也不敢轻易否定。 我欣赏他对王权的理解,他觉得政府如果作为一个维持统治的目的而存在,是可以利用一切所能考虑的...
评分 评分对人们最好是加以爱抚,要不然就必须消灭掉。这是因为人们如果受到了轻微的侵害,仍有能力进行报复; 但是对于沉重的伤害,他们就无能为力了。因此,当我们对一个人进行侵害时,应该彻底、不留后患,不给他任何报复的机会。 如果一个君主占领上面所说的地区,它在语言、习惯和...
实在是太晦涩 还是找中文版好了
