Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli (1469–1527) was an Italian historian, philosopher, humanist, and writer based in Florence during the Renaissance. He is one of the main founders of modern political science.[1] He was a diplomat, political philosopher, playwright, and a civil servant of the Florentine Republic. He also wrote comedies, carnival songs, poetry, and some of the most well-known personal correspondence in the Italian language. His position in the regime of Florence as Secretary to the Second Chancery of the Republic of Florence lasted from 1498 to 1512, a period in which the Medici were not in power. Machiavelli's most well-known writing was, however, after this period, during the time when the Medici recovered power, and Machiavelli was removed from all positions of responsibility
"Discourses on Livy" is the founding document of modern republicanism, and Harvey C. Mansfield and Nathan Tarcov have provided the definitive English translation of this classic work. Faithful to the original Italian text, properly attentive to Machiavelli's idiom and subtlety of thought, it is eminently readable. With a substantial introduction, extensive explanatory notes, a glossary of key words, and an annotated index, the "Discourses" reveals Machiavelli's radical vision of a new science of politics, a vision of "new modes and orders" that continue to shape the modern ethos.
"[Machiavelli] found in Livy the means to inspire scholars for five centuries. Within the "Discourses", often hidden and sometimes unintended by their author, lie the seeds of modern political thought. . . . [Mansfield and Tarcov's] translation is careful and idiomatic".--Peter Stothard, "The Times"
"Translated with painstaking accuracy--but also great readability".-- "Weekly Standard"
"A model of contemporary scholarship and a brave effort at Machiavelli translation that allows the great Florentine to speak in his own voice".-- "Choice"
【按语:马基雅维利(1469-1527)将《君主论》(1512)献给佛罗伦萨的统治者Lorenzo de’ Medici。《君主论》是《论李维》的一个分支或较小的姊妹篇。小清新,很简单。就其谋略论述而言,与亚里士多德《政治学》卷4-6差不多是异曲同工,并不更让人心惊胆战。 在区分了共和国和...
评分在本书中,马基雅维利以自己由现实政治状况引发的思考注解了李维的罗马史,从而重新建构出一套罗马城邦政治体系的金字塔式结构。 这套金字塔式结构的核心,便是马基雅维利所认为的“三制合一”的政体,即君主制、贵族制和民主制混合的政体。这种关于政体的观念,...
评分【按语:马基雅维利的《论李维》通过评注李维的史书《自建城以来》,以夹叙夹议的方式进行史论,考察了古罗马建城以来的伟大政治宏业及其经验教训,其间特别比照了古罗马的尊严荣耀和今日意大利的凋敝沉沦。共3卷,卷1考察了罗马共和时期官方的谋略和决策;卷2考察了罗马建立大...
评分我认为马基雅弗利的厉害之处在于:他能让未亲身经历过这些事情的人觉得他说的是如此的理所当然和符合逻辑。同时,这也说明了我们现在这个时代与他们的相似(起码从政治哲学上来说):人们没有底线,以结果论英雄,卑劣无耻但能达到目的的手段被奉为信条。这样方能解释为何我会...
