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).

“关于我的忠诚老实,应该没有疑问,因为我一直保持忠诚老实,我现在不会改变它。像我一个四十三年来一向是忠诚老实和善良的人,是不能够改变他的性质的;而且我贫穷,就是我为人忠诚老实和善良的证据。”——马基雅维利 1512年,四十三岁的马基雅维利在对自己做人格鉴定时,...
评分学术与政治之间 从马基雅维里关于《君主论》的两封信说起 李华芳 学术和政治之间的关系是一个不简单的话题。有韦伯的名篇演讲和徐复观的名著在前,似乎没有多大讨论的必要。只是讨论马基雅维里在学术与政治之间的纠葛有点像金庸小说中的《广陵散》成绝响、曲洋却从东汉蔡邑墓...
评分政治哲学是历史的发明,同时也在发明历史,其所关注的乃是如何规范政治来规范历史。因此讨论某种政治哲人理念的时候,总是绕不开对观念谱系的梳理,马基雅维利亦是如此。对一个人的经典化往往是历史积累而来,今日我们耳熟能详的话语在彼时却有开天辟地的意义,不还原历史自然...
评分很显然,马基雅维里是一代政治学导师。真实的太真实的,残忍与冷酷只配俯首于权力之下并供之驱使。不要把它们上升为人性之中阴暗一面,在我看来它比加州阳光还更令人心旷神怡。如果个人作为社会整体的一部分,那在各种需要层次被涵盖满足过后,君主就是自我实现的唯一途径。...
大学图书馆一本被翻烂了的书。读完之后只想说权力是多么的诱惑人。
