The name Niccolo Machiavelli is known all over the world. Who is he? A cynical teacher of bloody dictators or a violent defender of the homeland? His works were criticized and forbidden, but only time can be a judge of a genius.
Nikollo Machiavelli wrote that the sovereign should become like Lev and Fox if he wants to stay in power. This principle guided great rulers and influential politicians. Machiavelli philosophy does not lose relevance today, and we can observe our own eyes how the ideas of the Florentine thinker are realized in practice by world leaders.
This collection presents the most significant works of Machiavelli - "Sovereign", "Reasoning about the first decade of Titus Libya", "On how to do with the rebellious inhabitants of Valdikeyan" and other famous works.
"Sovereign" is the most famous and significant work of Niccolo Machiavelli. It tells about the methods of seizing power, methods of government and the characteristics of the ruler necessary for competent management and retention of power. Machiavelli allowed any means in the struggle for the consolidation of power: deception, insidiousness, betrayal, violence - therefore, his work received a very ambiguous assessment of contemporaries and descendants, and the Catholic Church introduced this essay to the list of prohibited books. In addition to the treatise "Sovereign", the collection presents the most important political works of the Florentine thinker, in which his most daring ideas were developed
