Il Principe (titolo originale in lingua latina: De Principatibus, lett. " Sui Principati") è un trattato di dottrina politica scritto da Niccolò Machiavelli nel 1513, nel quale espone le caratteristiche dei principati e dei metodi per mantenerli e conquistarli. Si tratta senza dubbio della sua opera più rinomata, quella dalle cui massime (spesso superficialmente interpretate) sono nati il sostantivo "machiavellismo" e l'aggettivo "machiavellico".

The Prince is a political treatise by the Italian diplomat, historian and political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli. Originally given a Latin title, De Principatibus (About Principalities), it was written in 1513, but 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 Mirror of Princes style, it is generally agreed that it was especially innovative, and not only because it was written in Italian rather than Latin. The Prince is sometimes claimed to be one of the first works of modern 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 his works and the one most responsible for bringing "Machiavellian" into wide usage as a pejorative term. 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 examples who were politically active Italians 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. The descriptions within The Prince have the general theme of accepting that ends of princes, such as glory, and indeed survival, will justify the mean.

Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527), an Italian political philosopher, is remarkable for his self-contradictions. In his writings he appears sometimes as a cynical pragmatist, sometimes - as an ardent Republican. Perception of Machiavelli is also quite contradictory - sometimes entirely derogatory and scornful, sometimes - admiring and appreciative. Who was he, this peer of Leonardo da Vinci? A smart and cruel manipulator or a passionate libertarian? And if both are true, does not it shed a strange light on the heritage of High Renaissance? Our readers can now judge Machiavelli on the basis of his work.

Der Fürst (italienisch Il Principe) wurde um 1513 von Niccolò Machiavelli verfasst. Die päpstliche Druckgenehmigung erschien am 4. Januar 1532 postum. Vorher kursierten Abschriften des Werkes. Es gilt neben den Discorsi, das Machiavelli parallel zum Fürstenbuch schrieb, als sein Hauptwerk. Das Fürstenbuch lobt den neuen Fürsten, die Discorsi plädieren für eine Republik. Obwohl die beiden Werke eine unterschiedliche Ausrichtung haben, geht es beiden politischen Werken Machiavellis um dieselbe Grundfrage: Wie kann man in einer feindlichen politischen Umwelt erfolgreich sein, namentlich die Macht erwerben, sie erhalten und zu Größe steigern?

When I consider how much honor is attributed to antiquity, and how many times, not to mention many other examples, a fragment of an antique statue has been bought at a great price in order to have it near to one, honoring his house, being able to have it imitated by those who delight in those arts, and how they then strive with all industry to present them in all their work: and when I see, on the other hand, the works of greatest virtu which Historians indicate have been accomplished by ancient Kingdoms and Republics, by Kings, Captains, Citizens, Lawgivers, and others who have worked themselves hard for their country, to be more readily admired than imitated, or rather so much neglected by everyone in every respect that no sign of that ancient virtu remains, I cannot otherwise than wonder and at the same time be sad: and so much more when I see in the civil differences that arise between Citizens, or in the maladies which men incur, they always have recourses to those judgments or to those remedies that have been judged or instituted by the ancients. For the civil laws are nothing else but the decisions given by the ancient Jurisconsults, which reduced to a system presently teach our Jurisconsults to judge and also what is medicine if not the experience had by the ancient Doctors, (and) on which the present Doctors base their judgments? None the less in the instituting of Republics, in maintaining of States, in the governing of Kingdoms, in organizing an army and conducting a war, in (giving) judgment for Subjects, in expanding the Empire, there will not be found either Prince, or Republic, or Captain, or Citizen, who has recourse to the examples of the ancients.

"THOSE princes and those republics which desire to remain free from corruption, should above all else maintain incorrupt the ceremonies of their religion. They should always hold them in veneration; for there can be no surer indication of the decline of a country than to see divine worship neglected." Niccolo Machiavelli JUST WHAT should a young man or woman know in order to be"In the Know"? Is there, in other words, some inside information, some special taboo, some real lowdown on life and existence that most parents and teachers either don't know or won't tell? In Japan it was once customary to give young people about to be married a "Pillow Book." This was a small volume of wood-block prints, often colored, showing all the details of sexual intercourse. It wasn't just that, as the Chinese say, "one picture is worth ten thousand words." It was also that it spared parents the embarrassment of explaining these intimate matters face-to-face. Today, you can get such information at any newsstand. Sex is no longer a serious taboo. Teenagers sometimes know more about it than adults. But if sex is no longer the big taboo, what is? For there is always something taboo, something repressed, un-admitted, or just glimpsed quickly out of the corner of one's eye because a direct look is too unsettling. In some circles there is a strong taboo on Religion, even in circles where people go to church or read the Bible. Here, religion is one's own private business. It is bad form or uncool to talk or argue about it, and very bad indeed to make a big show of piety. Yet when you get in on the inside of almost any standard-brand religion, you wonder what on earth the hush was about. In "On Religion no less than Niccolò Machiavelli, the author of The Prince himself, who takes you by the hand and gives you some real lowdown on what religion is all about. It is kind of all you wanted to know about Religion but was afraid to ask!

Il Principe (titolo originale in lingua latina: De Principatibus, lett. " Sui Principati") è un trattato di dottrina politica scritto da Niccolò Machiavelli nel 1513, nel quale espone le caratteristiche dei principati e dei metodi per mantenerli e conquistarli. Si tratta senza dubbio della sua opera più nota e celebrata, quella dalle cui massime (spesso superficialmente interpretate) sono nati il sostantivo "machiavellismo" e l'aggettivo "machiavellico". L'opera non è ascrivibile ad alcun genere letterario particolare, in quanto non ha le caratteristiche di un vero e proprio trattato; se ne è ipotizzata la natura di libriccino a carattere divulgativo. Il Principe si compone di una dedica e ventisei capitoli di varia lunghezza; l'ultimo capitolo consiste nell'appello ai de' Medici ad accettare le tesi espresse nel testo.

Niccolo Machiavelli, the author, was an Italian. (Born 3rd may 1469, died 21st June, 1527). he was a diplomat, philosopher, historian, politician and writer. He is best known for his book ?The prince?. his notable works are ?the prince? and ?discourses on livy?. ?the prince? is basically a political treatise and a sort of guide for new princes and royals. It was published five years after niccolo?s death. When he was alive, there was some controversy in his book. It was published only after seeking permission from the Medici Pope Clement VII. The prince is one of the best works of modern political philosophy, in which truth is highlighted rather than any abstract ideas or incidents. The beauty of the text is that it has a recognizable structure and the author has indicated himself in most of the portions. The book narrates mostly about princedoms. That too about hereditary princedoms. it?s easier to rule. Also, avoids comparison between monarchy and tyranny. Again, the beauty of his writing is that his character of the story, Cyrus the great, is totally different from those who have got their Thrones without any efforts IE as a successor and those who have acquired Crowns after putting their hard labour and efforts. He has cited Roman ways to the new princes. machiavelli has narrated about those kingdoms where one can enter in an easy way but difficult to hold such a kingdom. He has given one such example also IE, of France. He also writes that reforming an existing order is one of the most dangerous and difficult things for a prince, because in most of the cases the subjects are against or resistant to any such change or reform. Moreover, it is very difficult for the prince to satisfy or come out with everyone expectations. Other situations, when a prince comes to power due to his destiny then it will be very difficult to hold it for a long time. Some exceptions are always there. even if a prince is overly generous to his subjects, that situation will also not be appreciated and will cause greed for more. So, different sorts of kingdoms, princedoms need different styles of controlling any realm. The author has put his best efforts in narrating all such types of realms. The work is really commendable and very much beneficial to the rulers. a must read book for self development and how to be a good leader.

"Alle stater, alle herredømmer, hvorved menneskene hidtil er blevet styrede eller endnu styres, var eller er enten republikker eller fyrstendømmer. Fyrstendømmerne er enten arvelige, i hvilke herskerens slægt i lang tid har regeret, eller også nyskabte. De nyskabte er enten ganske nydannede, som f.eks. Mailand af Francesco Sforza, eller de er dele som fyrsten, der erhverver dem, føjer til den arvelige stat, som f.eks. kongen af Spanien med kongeriget Neapel."Intet litterært værk har haft så stor betydning for udviklingen af europæisk politik fra renæssancen og op til vor tid som italienske Niccolò Machiavellis bog "Fyrsten" fra 1513. Bogen beskriver, hvordan en politisk leder har ret til at styre sit land med selv de mest brutale midler, når det tjener nationens interesser, blot aldrig i hans egne. Bogen er dedikeret til Lorenzo de’ Medici, som Niccolò Machiavelli var rådgiver for ved det florentinske hof. Denne oversættelse stammer tilbage fra 1876. Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527) var en italiensk filosof, samfundsteoretiker og forfatter, der er særligt kendt for bogen "Fyrsten" om den perfekte politiske leder. Machiavelli spillede en central rolle for magthaverne i Firenze og udgav en lang række bøger om politik, samfundsvidenskab og historie samt flere oversættelser af latinske værker.

The Italian philosopher Niccolo Machiavelli wrote "Discourses on the First Decade of Titus Livius" in the early 1600s. It is a book about politics. The book is a commentary on the first ten books of the "History of Rome" by the Roman historian Titus Livy. Machiavelli wrote this book to give practical advice on how to set up and run a republic. He did this by looking at the Roman Republic, which Livy described. He says that a republic can only work if its citizens are good and are willing to put the needs of the community ahead of their own. Machiavelli talks about many different parts in this book of republican government, such as the importance of law, the role of the military, and the need for good leaders. The author also talks about the problems that come up when trying to set up a republic, like the risk of corruption and how hard it is to keep public support.
