Description
The Prince Book by Niccolo Machiavelli
This book is delightful to read for numerous reasons, among the primary ones are the author’s instructive notes and translation that render Machiavelli’s writing poetic and readily accessible — it reads like contemporary writing with Italian operatic pageantry, marvel, and excitement, which I believe accurately reflects Machiavelli’s Renaissance Florence. Professor William J. Connell delivers the goods: “Machiavelli’s language is more immediate and much less abstract and ‘impersonal’ than commonly believed.”
By today’s standards, the lessons captured by Machiavelli in The Price are not earth-shattering and seem almost over-simplified. Yet, they will likely continue to resonate for centuries to come because Machiavelli captured the essence of human instincts, needs, desires and aspirations. Politics and governance involve harnessing all available resources through human beings. And in warfare, the United States and allied forces realized the efficacy of winning the “hearts and minds” of the local people in Iraq and Afghanistan, which Machiavelli teaches in The Price.
