Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves and each other. They have inspire d debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization, and helped make us who we are.
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).
中国的革命,大多是自下而上的,于是需要《论语》,需要论语河蟹下里巴人们的思想 而《君主论》,则是写给想要变革的上位者看的,告诉他们怎么让下面的人听话 本质来说,都是同一本书,同一个思想,只不过是对象不一样,所以看上去有些不同 但是,基本上,两本可以对照来看,很...
评分毓秀 施特劳斯在《现代性的三次浪潮》里认为马基雅维利是现代性的开创者,何谓现代性,这个概念耳熟能详但一直没有定论,在我看来,所谓政治人向经济人的过渡亦或者一个历史进步的线性时间观念不过是现代性的附属物。现代性的核心理应是相信人能通过自己的意志和理性,审慎和决...
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...
评分政治哲学是历史的发明,同时也在发明历史,其所关注的乃是如何规范政治来规范历史。因此讨论某种政治哲人理念的时候,总是绕不开对观念谱系的梳理,马基雅维利亦是如此。对一个人的经典化往往是历史积累而来,今日我们耳熟能详的话语在彼时却有开天辟地的意义,不还原历史自然...
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...
君主论真是很好玩的一本小书啊——只要翻译够好。我觉得这个英文版的翻译相当的不错。虽然有些地方和手头台湾商务印书馆中文版不太一样,不过反正我也看不懂意大利文,就不说谁更忠实原文了;差的也不太多,也不是做学术就不管了。
