Machiavelli - Quentin Skinner

Niccolò Machiavelli taught that political leaders must be prepared to do evil so that good may come of it, and his name has been a byword ever since for duplicity and immorality. Is his sinister reputation deserved? In answering this question Quentin Skinner traces the course of Machiavelli''s adult life, from his time as Second Chancellor of the Florentine republic, during which he met with kings, the pope, and the Holy Roman Emperor; to the fall of the republic in 1512; to his death in 1527. It was after the fall of the Republic that Machiavelli composed his main political works: The Prince, the Discourses, and The History of Florence. In this second edition of his Very Short Introduction Skinner includes new material on The Prince, showing how Machiavelli developed his neo-classical political theory, through engaging in continual dialogue with the ancient Roman moralists and historians, especially Cicero and Livy. The aim of political leaders, Machiavelli argues, should be to act virtuously so far as possible, but to stand ready ''to be not good'' when this course of action is dictated by necessity. Exploring the pivotal concept of princely virtù to be found in classical and Renaissance humanist texts, Skinner ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Machiavelli aneb o nejistotě - Giulio Ferroni

Prvořadý literární historik Giulio Ferroni (* 1943) se Machiavellimu věnuje již od počátku sedmdesátých let, kdy publikoval monografii o motivu životního zvratu a střetu s osudem v Machiavelliho divadelních hrách. Po třiceti letech promýšlení pak své úvahy k Machiavellimu shrnul v útlé, ale obsažné knize Machiavelli aneb o jistotě z roku 2003. Ferroni poměrně ostře odmítá představu o Machiavellim coby stoupenci vyhraněného politického konceptu a zaměřuje se naopak na dění jeho textů s jejich zvláštními perspektivami, metaforikou, výkladovými zvraty, energickým vyjadřováním atd. Machiavelliho tedy čte jako filolog, místa z Vladaře a Rozprav staví vedle citátů z Mandragoryči Machiavelliho poezie a florentského autora vřazuje do dobového kontextu, literárního (Castiglione, Ariosto) i diskurzivního ("lidová" politická moudrost a reálná praxe florentské politiky). Pozoruhodnou pointou je, že právě v tomto "literárním" čtení se též projevuje mimořádná Machiavelliho aktualita: Ferroni jej prezentuje jako stoupence "politiky nápravy" (politica del rimedio), která hledá léky na pragmaticky vnímané neduhy.

Machiavelli - Alexander Lee

''A wonderfully assured and utterly riveting biography that captures not only the much-maligned Machiavelli, but also the spirit of his time and place. A monumental achievement.'' – Jessie Childs, author of God''s Traitors.‘A notorious fiend’, ‘generally odious’, ‘he seems hideous, and so he is.’ Thanks to the invidious reputation of his most famous work, The Prince, Niccolò Machiavelli exerts a unique hold over the popular imagination. But was Machiavelli as sinister as he is often thought to be? Might he not have been an infinitely more sympathetic figure, prone to political missteps, professional failures and personal dramas? Alexander Lee reveals the man behind the myth, following him from cradle to grave, from his father’s penury and the abuse he suffered at a teacher’s hands, to his marriage and his many affairs (with both men and women), to his political triumphs and, ultimately, his fall from grace and exile. In doing so, Lee uncovers hitherto unobserved connections between Machiavelli’s life and thought. He also reveals the world through which Machiavelli moved: from the great halls of Renaissance Florence to the court of the Borgia pope, Alexander VI, from the dungeons of the Stinche prison to the Rucellai gardens, where he would ...

Vladař - Niccoló Machiavelli

Vladař je nejvýznamnějším Machiavelliho dílem, které napsal již v roce 1513, ale vyšlo až po jeho smrti, roku 1532. Věnováno bylo rodu Medicejských (konkrétně "vznešenému Lorenzovi Medicejskému"). Autorovi šlo především o sjednocení Itálie, o jednotný stát, který by byl spravován moudrým vládcem, jenž by neměl váhat použít jakékoli prostředky, aby zajistil blaho země, a v zájmu této věci bylo Machiavellimu jedno, stane-li se tak formou republiky, nebo autokracie. Jako vzor vladaře Machiavellimu posloužil neúprosně vládychtivý Cesaro Borgia. Koncepce dvojí morálky - morálky soukromé a morálky moci - vedla k tomu, že byl Machiavelli označen za cynika, jde ale spíše o zlom v pojetí vládnutí: vládce už není služebníkem Božím, je služebníkem státu (termín, který prvně použil právě Machiavelli). Útlý spis o 26 kapitolách je klíčovým dílem, které obsahuje politické úvahy odhalující a popisující mechanismy fungování moci, a stal se základem děl dalších teoretiků moci. Přestože se Machiavelli věnuje hospodářské stránce vládnutí málo, jeho poučení, že dobrý vládce má zajistit, "aby se nikdo nebál zvelebovati majetek z obavy, že mu bude odňat, nebo si otevřít dílnu ze strachu před daněmi", není zřejmě "vládci" doceněno dodnes, patrně na rozdíl od myšlenky, že "lidé jsou tak prostomyslní a tolik se pachtí za tím, ...

Discourses on Livy - Niccoló Machiavelli

Discourses on Livy (1531) is as essential to an understanding of Machiavelli as his famous treatise, The Prince. Equally controversial, it reveals his fundamental preference for a republican state. Comparing the practice of the ancient Romans with that of his contemporaries provided Machiavelli with a consistent point of view in all his works. Machiavelli''s close analysis of Livy''s history of Rome led him to advance his most original and outspoken view of politics - the belief that a healthy body politic was characterized by social friction and conflict rather than by rigid stability. His discussion of conspiracies in Discourses on Livy is one of the most sophisticated treatments of archetypal political upheaval every written. In an age of increasing political absolutism, Machiavelli''s theories became a dangerous ideology.This new translation is richly annotated, providing the contemporary reader with sufficient historical, linguistic, and political information to understand and interpret the revolutionary affirmations Machiavelli made, based on the historical evidence he found in Livy.The complete Livy in English, available in five volumes from Oxford World''s Classics.

The New Machiavelli - Jonathan Powell

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.

The Prince - Niccoló Machiavelli

Machiavelli’s highly influential treatise on political power ''It is far safer to be feared than loved...'' The Prince shocked Europe on publication with its advocacy of ruthless tactics for gaining absolute power and its abandonment of conventional morality. Niccoló Machiavelli drew on his own experience of office under the turbulent Florentine republic, rejecting traditional values of political theory and recognising the complicated, transient nature of political life. Machiavelli made his name notorious for centuries with The Prince, his clever and cynical work about power relationships. The key themes of this influential, and ever timely, writer are that adaptability is the key to success and that effective leadership is sometimes only possible at the expense of moral standards.''Everyone should have a copy of Machiavelli''s The Prince, whose original purpose may have been to counsel Renaissance rulers in the art of statecraft but is still applicable to and, indeed, acted on by modern politicians and power-brokers'' Guardian

The Prince - Niccoló Machiavelli

Machiavelli has been a controversial figure ever since his writings were published at the close of the Renaissance. This is due to the frank and forthright nature of the guidance to prospective rulers he shares in The Prince. Not much is sacred for Machiavelli, and he does not shrink from advising about things like manipulation of public opinion, deception of the gullible, or the use of violence for political purposes. With Machiavelli''s writings, understanding his circumstances in the turbulent late-renaissance Italy is especially helpful. We offer our readers a detailed author section to assist with this, featuring a classic analysis of Machiavelli by Thomas Macaulay from 1850. The book comes in 137x200mm format with hard cover in luxurious dark grey Van Heek Coloretta cloth and debossed details, designed by Anna-Mari Tenhunen in Helsinki.

An art book about art that has a purpose, focusing on work by Quentin Blake that has been commissioned for a particular place or for a particular use. Illustration is the most accessible visual artform and one that is used in all aspects of life; as Quentin Blake says, 'it is, if you like, a vernacular; it’s a language that everybody understands. They may look at it and not think that they’re looking at art, but it’s having the effect on them of art. It’s a language that everybody can read, so to speak.' The work here shows Quentin using this vernacular to great effect and for very different purposes. In 2007 when Elizabeth II was opening the new Eurostar at St Pancras, Quentin was asked to hide an unsightly building across the road. He drew a 2-colour illustration on his drawing board showing a cast of characters that you might meet on a London Street; this was then blown up large enough to wrap a five-storey building.

The Discourses - Niccoló Machiavelli

Few figures in intellectual history have proved as notorious and ambiguous as Niccolò Machiavelli. But while his treatise The Prince made his name synonymous with autocratic ruthlessness and cynical manipulation, The Discourses (c.1517) shows a radically different outlook on the world of politics. In this carefully argued commentary on Livy’s history of republican Rome, Machiavelli proposed a system of government that would uphold civic freedom and security by instilling the virtues of active citizenship, and that would also encourage citizens to put the needs of the state above selfish, personal interests. Ambitious in scope, but also clear-eyed and pragmatic, The Discourses creates a modern theory of republic politics.Leslie J. Walker’s definitive translation has been revised by Brian Richardson and is accompanied by an introduction by Bernard Crick, which illuminates Machiavelli’s historical context and his new theories of politics. This edition also includes suggestions for further reading and notes.

Napoleon, Mussolini, Voltaire, even Mafia man John Gotti – they all read Machiavelli’s The Prince. Philosophers such as Jean-Jacques Rousseau, David Hume and Adam Smith were influenced by it. And the book’s ideas led to the term Machiavellian entering the language. But the influence of The Prince has reached far beyond the world of politics, with business and management gurus applying Machiavelli’s ideas to corporate strategy: what was true for princes then, can be applied by leaders today. Machiavelli himself was a Florentine politician and diplomat who admired and knew Cesare Borgia, and was himself a victim of torture by the Medici family. Written in the early 16th century, The Prince is a treatise is on how princes can not only best gain, but maintain power. He suggests how princes can avoid being hated but remain being feared by their people, he advocates pragmatic realism against political idealism, he encourages ambition, he defends evil and explains through classical and Renaissance examples which princes are the most successful.

''A prince must not have any other object nor any other thought...but war, its institutions, and its discipline; because that is the only art befitting one who commands.''When Machiavelli''s brief treatise on Renaissance statecraft and princely power was posthumously published in 1532, it generated a debate that has raged unabated until the present day. Based upon Machiavelli''s first-hand experience as an emissary of the Florentine Republic to the courts of Europe, The Prince analyses the usually violent means by which men seize, retain, and lose political power. Machiavelli added a dimension of incisive realism to one of the major philosophical and political issues of his time, especially the relationship between public deeds and private morality.

Beyond Freedom and Dignity - B. F. Skinner

In this profound and profoundly controversial work, a landmark of 20th-century thought originally published in 1971, B. F. Skinner makes his definitive statement about humankind and society.Insisting that the problems of the world today can be solved only by dealing much more effectively with human behavior, Skinner argues that our traditional concepts of freedom and dignity must be sharply revised. They have played an important historical role in our struggle against many kinds of tyranny, he acknowledges, but they are now responsible for the futile defense of a presumed free and autonomous individual; they are perpetuating our use of punishment and blocking the development of more effective cultural practices. Basing his arguments on the massive results of the experimental analysis of behavior he pioneered, Skinner rejects traditional explanations of behavior in terms of states of mind, feelings, and other mental attributes in favor of explanations to be sought in the interaction between genetic endowment and personal history. He argues that instead of promoting freedom and dignity as personal attributes, we should direct our attention to the physical and social environments in which people live.

Vladár - Niccoló Machiavelli - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Machiavelliho Vladár patrí k základnému fondu diel svetovej literatúry. Florentský sekretár, vyslanec a teoretik doň vložil myšlienky, vyvierajúce zo skúseností, ktoré nazbieral za svojej verejnej činnosti. Machiavelli je realista a jediný prostriedok na to, aby vlasť bola slobodná a nezávislá, vidí v tom, že opraty vlády chytí silná ruka, človek, ktorý sa nezľakne žiadneho prostriedku, aby dosiahol svoj – v autorovom chápaní a čase vznešený – cieľ. Niektoré jeho zásady a poučky sú chladné a trpké, pochopiteľné len v kontexte doby. Práve pri Machiavellim však často dochádza k dezinterpretáciám. Dodnes sa naňho s obľubou odvolávajú štátnici a politici, no azda by bolo namieste nenahliadať na jeho najznámejšie dielo ako na všeobecne a nadčasovo platný návod na spravovanie spoločnosti.

The Prince - Niccoló Machiavelli

At the end of an industrious political career in conflictriven Italy, the Florentine diplomat Niccolò Machiavelli composed his masterpiece The Prince, a classic study of power and politics, and a manual of ruthlessness for any ambitious ruler. Controversial in his own time, The Prince made Machiavelli’s name a byword for manipulative scheming, and had an impact on such major figures as Napoleon and Frederick the Great. It contains principles as true today as when they were first written almost five centuries ago.

Opening Skinner's Box - Lauren Slater

A century can be understood in many ways - in terms of its inventions, its crimes or its art. In Opening Skinner's Box, Lauren Slater sets out to investigate the twentieth century through a series of ten fascinating, witty and sometimes shocking accounts of its key psychological experiments. Starting with the founder of modern scientific experimentation, B.F. Skinner, Slater traces the evolution of the last hundred years' most pressing concerns - free will, authoritarianism, violence, conformity and morality. Previously buried in academic textbooks, these often daring experiments are now seen in their full context and told as stories, rich in plot, wit and character.

Afro-Sweden - Ryan Thomas Skinner

A compelling examination of Sweden’s African and Black diasporaContemporary Sweden is a country with a worldwide progressive reputation, despite an undeniable tradition of racism within its borders. In the face of this contradiction of culture and history, Afro-Swedes have emerged as a vibrant demographic presence, from generations of diasporic movement, migration, and homemaking. In Afro-Sweden, Ryan Thomas Skinner uses oral histories, archival research, ethnography, and textual analysis to explore the history and culture of this diverse and growing Afro-European community. Skinner employs the conceptual themes of “remembering” and “renaissance” to illuminate the history and culture of the Afro-Swedish community, drawing on the rich theoretical traditions of the African and Black diaspora. Remembering fosters a sustained meditation on Afro-Swedish social history, while Renaissance indexes a thriving Afro-Swedish public culture. Together, these concepts illuminate significant existential modes of Afro-Swedish being and becoming, invested in and contributing to the work of global Black studies. The first scholarly monograph in English to focus specifically on the African and Black diaspora in Sweden, Afro-Sweden emphasizes the voices, experiences, practices, knowledge, and ideas of these communities. Its rigorously interdisciplinary approach to understanding diasporic communities is essential to contemporary conversations around such issues as the status and ... Unknown localization key: "more"
