Niccolò Machiavelli (born May 3, 1469, Florence-died June 21, 1527, Florence) Italian statesman, historian, and political theorist. He rose to power after the overthrow of Girolamo Savonarola, was appointed secretary and Second Chancellor to the Florentine Republic in 1498. Working as a diplomat for 14 years, he came in contact with the most powerful figures in Europe. He was dismissed when the Medici family returned to power in 1512, and during the next year he was arrested and tortured for conspiracy. Though soon released, he was not permitted to return to public office. His famous treatise The Prince (1513, published 1532) is a handbook for rulers; though dedicated to Lorenzo de' Medici, ruler of Florence from 1513, it failed to win Machiavelli his favour. Machiavelli viewed The Prince as an objective description of political reality. Because he viewed human nature as venal, grasping, and thoroughly self-serving, he suggested that ruthless cunning is appropriate to the conduct of government. Though admired for its incisive brilliance, the book also has been widely condemned as cynical and amoral, and “Machiavellian” has come to mean deceitful, unscrupulous, and manipulative. His other works include a set of discourses on Livy (completed c. 1518), the comedy The Mandrake (completed c. 1518), The Art of War (published 1521), and the Florentine Histories (completed c. 1525).

我前日写了一篇文章([https://www.douban.com/note/741354078/]),简单地对比了刘训练翻译的【君主论】与潘汉典翻译的【君主论】字句的相似处。提出了【刘训练译本是完全以潘译本为底本,参照英文版译本修改字句的潘译本“加工本”,刘训练不应该单独署译者名】这一观点。拙...
评分马基雅维利的《君主论》是西方现代政治思潮的里程碑。我一直想弄清楚这个现代究竟准确地指向哪里?至少不是我们的教科书中那样信誓旦旦宣称的1949年后,似乎自那之后便全是一片新天地,非现代不可。另一种说法是,生活在1469到1527年间的马基雅维利是近代政治学的鼻祖,这个说...
评分学术与政治之间 从马基雅维里关于《君主论》的两封信说起 李华芳 学术和政治之间的关系是一个不简单的话题。有韦伯的名篇演讲和徐复观的名著在前,似乎没有多大讨论的必要。只是讨论马基雅维里在学术与政治之间的纠葛有点像金庸小说中的《广陵散》成绝响、曲洋却从东汉蔡邑墓...
评分以下是我读《君主论》时的书摘,摘到一半时,我突然发现,如果把文中的部分词汇改一下,这本《君主论》就可以变成一本可以指导男人追女人,解决一些困难的情感事务的《男人论》。 不过,当你开始阅读下面的文章前,最好心里有一个清楚的认识,就是“不择手段”是有前提...
评分马基雅维利这本著作从问世开始,一直以来可以说毁多于誉,在读这本书第一次的过程中,我还没有怎么感觉到里面有什么太坏的(相对于韩非子),很多人也喜欢将它与韩非子相提并论。但是,后面我觉得,这本书的写作逻辑和韩氏还是有很大不同的,起码作为基础的人性假设我认为就有...
