Niccolo Machiavelli's brutally uncompromising manual of statecraft, The Prince is translated and edited with an introduction by Tim Parks in Penguin Classics. As a diplomat in turbulent fifteenth-century Florence, Niccolo Machiavelli knew how quickly political fortunes could rise and fall. The Prince, his tough-minded, pragmatic handbook on how power really works, made his name notorious and has remained controversial ever since. How can a leader be strong and decisive, yet still inspire loyalty in his followers? When is it necessary to break the rules? Is it better to be feared than loved? Examining regimes and their rulers the world over and throughout history, from Roman Emperors to renaissance Popes, from Hannibal to Cesare di Borgia, Machievalli answers all these questions in a work of realpolitik that still has shrewd political lessons for today. Tim Parks's acclaimed contemporary translation renders Machiavelli's no-nonsense original as alarming and enlightening as when it was first written. His introduction discusses Machiavelli's life and reputation, and explores the historical background to the work. Niccolo Machiavelli (1469-1527) was born in Florence, and served the Florentine republic as a secretary and second chancellor, as ambassador and foreign policy-maker. When the Medici family returned to power in 1512 he was suspected of conspiracy, imprisoned and tortured and forced to retire from public life. His most famous work, The Prince, was written in an attempt to gain favour with the Medicis and return to politics.

The New Machiavelli is a gripping account of life inside 'the bunker' of Number 10. In his twenty-first century reworking of Niccolo Machiavelli's influential masterpiece, The Prince, Jonathan Powell - Tony Blair's Chief of Staff from 1994 - 2007 - recounts the inside story of that period, drawing on his own unpublished diaries. Taking the lessons of Machiavelli derived from his experience as an official in fifteenth-century Florence, Powell shows how these lessons can still apply today. Illustrating each of Machiavelli's maxims with a description of events that occurred during Tony Blair's time as Prime Minister, The New Machiavelli is designed to be The Prince for modern times.

Dall'Apocalissi festosa de "L'ultimo capodanno dell'umanitа" alle peripezie del picciotto Albertino protagonista di "Fango", i racconti di Niccolo Ammaniti mettono in scena i nuovi eroi di un'umanitа borderline e metropolitana, capace di passare con leggerezza da una modesta aspirazione a un efferato delitto. Sono racconti che mescolano tutti i generi, dall'horror alla commedia all'italiana, trovando infine in una grottesca vena comica il vero elemento comune. Storie nelle quali una minuziosa osservazione della realtа si fonde con una scatenata fantasia, per cui anche la morte si trasforma in uno scintillante spettacolo.

A prince, therefore, is not to regard the scandal of being cruel, if thereby he keeps his subjects in their allegiance and united... Considered one of the first works of modern philosophy, Machiavelli's The Prince is an intense study on the nature of power and the course it should take when ruling a country. The story is a manual of amoral and underhand instruction on how a prince might go about ascending to a position of prominence, using any means at his disposal - including flattery, bias and force. Responsible for the widely-used phrase 'Machiavellian, with all of its negative connotations, his extreme treatise remains a classic text.

Written in 1513 for the Medici, following their return to power in Florence, The Prince is a handbook on ruling and the exercise of power. It remains as relevant today as it was in the sixteenth century. Widely quoted in the Press and in academic publications, The Prince has direct relevance to the issues of business and corporate governance confronting global corporations as they enter a new millennium. Much of what Machiavelli wrote has become the common currency of realpolitik, yet still his ideas retain the power to shock and annoy. In the words of Norman Stone, The Prince is 'a manual of man-management that would suit a great many parts of the modern world'.

Niccolo Machiavelli provides a remarkably uncompromising picture of the true nature of power, no matter what era or by whom it is exercised. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library, a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold-foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition features an afterword by Oliver Francis. Drawing on examples from the ancient Greeks and Romans and from Machiavelli's contemporaries, The Prince offers - some believed with satirical intent - advice on how a ruler should preserve his power, conduct and warfare, and maintain his reputation. Machiavelli not only influenced many of the great statesmen of his age, but was also one of the founding fathers of modern political thought. The Prince, written in 1513 and published in 1532, is one of the most famous pieces of writing of all time.

Fra il 1518 e il 1520, condannato al confino e all’inattivitа politica nel podere dell’Albergaccio a Sant’Andrea in Percussina, Niccolo Machiavelli si dedica alla scrittura della Mandragola, destinata a diventare un indiscusso capolavoro del teatro rinascimentale. Osservatore attento dei vizi e dei comportamenti umani, lo scrittore fiorentino getta uno sguardo impietoso e acuminato sulla societа fiorentina e la descrive in una commedia amara, che fa ridere e riflettere. La vicenda ruota attorno allo sciocco messer Nicia: ossessionato dal desiderio di paternitа, Nicia si affida al sedicente medico Callimaco che, innamorato della bella moglie di lui Lucrezia, escogita un astuto tranello per ottenerne la virtu. La lucida causticitа di Machiavelli rivive in queste pagine con rinnovato slancio grazie alla traduzione in italiano moderno di Guido Davico Bonino, che ci restituisce un’opera di assoluta modernitа, irresistibile specchio di una societа governata, ieri come oggi, dal dominio degli istinti e delle passioni.
