Machiavelli : A Beginner's Guide, Paperback / softback Book

Machiavelli : A Beginner's Guide Paperback / softback

Part of the Beginner's Guides series

Paperback / softback

Description

Machiavelli has been among the most commented upon, criticized and feared thinkers of the modern world.

Infamous for his support of brutality and repression as valid political instruments, he is often portrayed as the pantomime villain of political theorists. In this whirlwind tour of Machiavelli’s writings and eventful life, Nederman highlights the complexities in his thought, showing that he actually advocated democracy as much as dictatorship, debate as much as violence, depending upon prevailing political conditions.
