Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Review: "Unlike Machiavelli-inveterate dreamer and cynic-Guicciardini's mind is remarkable for the balance and masterly coolness of its judgment."-Federico Chabod "In the history of Renaissance thought, Guicciardini's Ricordi occupy a place of singular importance. Few works of the sixteenth century allow us so penetrating an insight into the views and sentiments of its author as these reflections of the great Italian historian. . . . Like Machiavelli's Prince, the Ricordi form one of the outstanding documents of a time of crisis and transition; but unlike the Prince, they range over a wide field of private as well as public life. In doing so, they revel the man as well as the political theorist."-Nicolai Rubenstein, from the Introduction.

Book Synopsis Guicciardini: Dialogue on the Government of Florence by : Francesco Guicciardini
Download or read book Guicciardini: Dialogue on the Government of Florence written by Francesco Guicciardini and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-06-09 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first translation into English of Guicciardini's Dialogue on the Government of Florence. Written in the early 1520s by the author of the famous History of Italy, as well as a History of Florence and Political Maxims and Reflections, this dialogue presents what is arguably the most searching and comprehensive analysis of the politics of his times. Like Machiavelli, his contemporary and friend, Guicciardini rejects classical republican arguments in the name of the new political realism and acknowledges the important role of patronage and graft in contemporary politics and the illegitimacy of nearly all forms of political power. In this Dialogue he provides one of the clearest expositions of the term 'reason of state', which he was one of the first to employ and which he uses to justify the priority of state interest over private morality and religion.

Book Synopsis Machiavelli - The First Century by : Sydney Anglo
Download or read book Machiavelli - The First Century written by Sydney Anglo and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2005-06-23 with total page 786 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1513 and 1525 Niccolò Machiavelli wrote a series of works dealing with political, military, and historical matters. One of these (the 'Arte della guerra') was published in 1521, but the rest of his major writings were not published until 1531-2, nearly five years after his death. They continued to be reissued regularly, well into the early seventeenth century. The popularity of Machiavelli's books, the variety of his themes, the different contexts within which he was studied, the range of readers' interests, and the fact that his name entered the vocabulary of every European language - all make his early reception a fruitful field of enquiry. Historians of ideas have tended to tidy up the past in order to make it comprehensible but Sydney Anglo is concerned with heterogeneity, and with the often irrational and emotional aspects of sixteenth-century thought. Basing his research entirely upon primary sources he quotes extensively in the conviction that, in a battle of words, the words themselves and their tone convey more than summaries of intellectual abstractions. Authors - hostile, enthusiastic, and indifferent - are closely examined; and many different contexts, political and intellectual, are considered. Sometimes Machiavelli was influential, sometimes not, but in this history of his reception, silences often prove significant. Written in a lively and trenchant style, this new interpretation of the impact of Machievalli is an original contribution of high quality by a leading expert in the field of Renaissance studies.

Book Synopsis Time, History, and Political Thought by : John Robertson
Download or read book Time, History, and Political Thought written by John Robertson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-22 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the cliché that 'a week is a long time in politics' and the aspiration of many political philosophers to give their ideas universal, timeless validity lies a gulf which the history of political thought is uniquely qualified to bridge. For that history shows that no conception of politics has dispensed altogether with time, and many have explicitly sought legitimacy in association with forms of history. Ranging from Justinian's law codes to rival Protestant and Catholic visions of political community after the Fall, from Hobbes and Spinoza to the Scottish Enlightenment, and from Kant and Savigny to the legacy of German Historicism and the Algerian Revolution, this volume explores multiple ways in which different conceptions of time and history have been used to understand politics since late antiquity. Bringing together leading contemporary historians of political thought, Time, History, and Political Thought demonstrates just how much both time and history have enriched the political imagination.

Book Synopsis Skepticism in the Modern Age by : José Raimundo Maia Neto
Download or read book Skepticism in the Modern Age written by José Raimundo Maia Neto and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the first edition of Richard Popkin s classic The History of Scepticism in 1960, skepticism has been increasingly recognized as a major force in the development of early modern philosophy. This book provides a review of current scholarship and significant updated research on some of the main thinkers and issues related to the reappraisal of ancient skepticism in the modern age. Special attention is given to the nature, importance, and relation to religion of Montaigne s and Hume s skepticisms; to the various skeptical and non-skeptical sources of Cartesian doubt; to the skeptical and anti-skeptical impact of Cartesianism in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries; and to philosophers who dealt with skeptical issues in the development of their own various intellectual interests.
Download or read book Ricordi written by Francesco Guicciardini and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2022-10-28 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In quando scrittore dei "Ricordi", Francesco Guicciardini è considerato il fondatore di un nuovo genere: l’aforisma politico e morale. È infatti da tenere presente che qui il termine "ricordo" non indica una reminiscenza, una rimembranza, ma piuttosto un consiglio o addirittura un ammonimento. La stesura finale del libro, avvenuta nel 1530, conta un totale di 221 ricordi. Francesco Guicciardini (1483 – 1540) è stato uno storico, un politico e uno scrittore italiano, considerato uno degli scrittori politici maggiori del Rinascimento italiano. Fu il precursore di un nuovo stile utilizzato nella storiografia: iniziò a usare fonti governative per supportare le sue argomentazioni e fece analisi realistiche di persone ed eventi dell’epoca. Ha scritto diverse opere, tra cui "Storia d’Italia", considerata il suo capolavoro.
Book Synopsis Machiavelli on Freedom and Civil Conflict by : Marie Gaille
Download or read book Machiavelli on Freedom and Civil Conflict written by Marie Gaille and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Machiavelli on Freedom and Civil Conflict: An Historical and Medical Approach to Political Thinking, Marie Gaille rethinks Machiavelli’s conception of civil conflict. In complete opposition to the common view of Machiavelli as a defender of tyranny, this analysis brings new elements to the forefront: the use of medical metaphors to describe the body politic, its historical lifespan and its institutional arrangement. This study is also based on a comprehensive approach to Machiavelli’s writings, including his most famous works, but also The History of Florence, his correspondence, and his political, military and diplomatic reports. This study allows Marie Gaille to propose an original assessment of Machiavelli’s insights for contemporary conceptions of democracy. This is a revised and translated edition of Conflit Civil et Liberté: la Politique Machiavelienne entre Histoire et Médecine, first published in French, in 2004 by Éditions Honoré Champion.
