Machiavelli and Mystery of State, Paperback / softback Book

Machiavelli and Mystery of State Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Machiavelli and Mystery of State, first published in 1989, studies the intersection of sacred and secular conceptions of kingship in the Renaissance by documenting in detail six instances of the attempt to connect Machiavelli's thought to an ancient and secret tradition of political counsel, the arcana imperii or mysteries of state.

This book illuminates an important and neglected dimension of Machiavelli's powerful influence on Renaissance political discourse.
