The Prince

The Prince is a 16th-century political treatise by the Italian diplomat and political theorist Niccolo Machiavelli. From correspondence a version appears to have been distributed in 1513, using a Latin title, De Principatibus (Of Principalities). However, the printed version was not published until 1532, five years after Machiavelli's death. This was done with the permission of the Medici pope Clement VII, but 'long before then, in fact since the first appearance of The Prince in manuscript, controversy had swirled about his writings'. Although it was written as if it were a traditional work in the mirrors for princes style, it is generally agreed that it was especially innovative. Niccolò Machiavelli, belongs to such prominent Florentines as Dante Alighieri, Petrarch, Giovanni Boccaccio, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Botticelli

The Prince

The most famous book on politics ever written, The Prince remains as lively and shocking today as when it was written almost five hundred years ago. Initially denounced as a collection of sinister maxims and a recommendation of tyranny, it has more recently been defended as the first scientific treatment of politics as it is practiced rather than as it ought to be practiced. Harvey C. Mansfield’s brilliant translation of this classic work, along with the new materials added for this edition, make it the definitive version of The Prince, indispensable to scholars, students, and those interested in the dark art of politics. This revised edition of Mansfield’s acclaimed translation features an updated bibliography, a substantial glossary, an analytic introduction, a chronology of Machiavelli’s life, and a map of Italy in Machiavelli’s time. “Of the other available [translations], that of Harvey C. Mansfield makes the necessary compromises between exactness and readability, as well as providing an excellent introduction and notes.”—Clifford Orwin, The Wall Street Journal ”Mansfield’s work . . . is worth acquiring as the best combination of accuracy and readability.”—Choice ”There is good reason to assert that Machiavelli has met his match in Mansfield. . . . [He] is ready to read Machiavelli as he demands to be read—plainly and boldly, but also cautiously.”—John Gueguen, The Sixteenth Century Journal

The Prince

'The Prince' is a political treatise by Niccolò Machiavelli, written in 1513 and published in 1532. The book is a pragmatic guide for political leaders, focused on how to maintain power and navigate the complex and often ruthless world of governance. Although the text is commonly viewed as a manual for manipulation and a justification for Machiavellian deceit and cunning, it has also been interpreted as a realistic, if cynical, analysis of power dynamics. The work is a foundational text in political theory and continues to be studied and debated today.

The Art of War - (Machiavelli Book) (Unabridged)

The Art of War by Niccolò Machiavelli - is a treatise by the Italian Renaissance political philosopher and historian Niccolò Machiavelli. The format of The Art of War is a socratic dialogue. The purpose, declared by Lord Fabrizio Colonna (perhaps Machiavelli's persona) at the outset, 'To honor and reward virtù, not to have contempt for poverty, to esteem the modes and orders of military discipline, to constrain citizens to love one another, to live without factions, to esteem less the private than the public good.' To these ends, Machiavelli notes in his preface, the military is like the roof of a palazzo protecting the contents. Format The Art of War is divided into a preface (proemio) and seven books (chapters), which take the form of a series of dialogues that take place in the Orti Oricellari, the gardens built in a classical style by Bernardo Rucellai in the 1490s for Florentine aristocrats and humanists to engage in discussion, between Cosimo Rucellai and 'Lord Fabrizio Colonna' (many feel Colonna is a veiled disguise for Machiavelli himself, but this view has been challenged by scholars such as Mansfield), with other patrizi and captains of the recent Florentine republic: Zanobi Buondelmonti, Battista della Palla and Luigi Alamanni. The work is dedicated to Lorenzo di Filippo Strozzi, patrizio fiorentino in a preface which ostentatiously pronounces Machiavelli's authorship. After repeated uses of the first person singular to introduce the dialogue, Machiavelli retreats from the work, serving as neither narrator nor interlocutor. Fabrizio is enamored with the Roman Legions of the early to mid Roman Republic and strongly advocates adapting them to the contemporary situation of Renaissance Florence. Fabrizio dominates the discussions with his knowledge, wisdom and insights. The other characters, for the most part, simply yield to his superior knowledge and merely bring up topics, ask him questions or for clarification. These dialogues, then, often become monologues with Fabrizio detailing how an army should be raised, trained, organized, deployed and employed. Background Machiavelli's Art of War echoes many themes, issues, ideas and proposals from his earlier, more widely read works, The Prince and The Discourses. To the contemporary reader, Machiavelli's dialogue may seem impractical and to under-rate the effectiveness of both firearms and cavalry. However, his theories were not merely based on a thorough study and analysis of classical and contemporary military practices. Machiavelli had served for fourteen years as secretary to the Chancery of Florence and 'personally observed and reported back to his government on the size, composition, weaponry, morale, and logistical capabilities of the most effective militaries of his day.' However, the native fighting force he assiduously oversaw was struck a catastrophic defeat in Prato in 1512 which led to the downfall of the Florentine republican government.

The Prince

This powerful, and sometimes disturbing and frank, political treatise was written in the early 16th century by Niccolo Machiavelli, a political theorist and Italian diplomat. Machiavelli was writing specifically to Lorenzo De'Medici as an instruction manual for 'new princes.' His perspective on the aims and glory of princes is a controversial but powerful insight into the cold calculations of men of his station in his time.

The Devil Knows Best - A Short Story Collection

Ok, so here’s the deal. You would like untold riches, power, fame and flesh. I can give you that for the rest of your earthly life. But I would like a little something in return. Of course, nothing so coarse as to hamper your rampant greed for the rest of your life. No, merely your soul for eternity. Is it a bargain we both agree? Splendid. Let us begin. Greed and desire are all things in small measure that we sometimes pursue but in the hands of authors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, William Makepeace Thackeray, Anatole France and others the appetite for both is somewhat more ambitious.1 - The Devil Knows Best - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction2 - The Devil In Manuscript by Nathaniel Hawthorne3 - Belphagor by Niccolo Machiavelli4 - The Devil and Tom Walker by Washington Irving5 - Lucifer by Anatole France6 - The Devil's Wager by William Makepeace Thackeray7 - Madam Lucifer by Richard Garnett8 - The Devil's Mother-in-Law by Fernan Caballeron9 - From the Memoirs of Satan by Wilhelm Hauff

The publication of many of these titles, several of them of gone on to be acknowledged by customers and industry experts, as modern-day classics.

We are publishing four of these great classics in one place-for your listening and learning pleasure.

The second aspect-political power (or some would say influential power)-is represented by The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli. The third and fourth aspects- mental and spiritual power are both represented each of the following titles by Neville Goddard-Feeling is the Secret and The Power of Awareness.

The Prince

Given the tumultuous political era in which he lived, Niccolo Machiavelli (1469-1527), the Italian Renaissance author, philosopher, historian and diplomat, had a front-row seat to observe the political machinations, power struggles and dynastic changes in Renaissance Europe. He would compile these observations in 'The Prince,' which would swiftly gain a reputation both as a simple treatise on how to achieve and wield political power as well as an immoral, by-the-numbers account of how tyrants can seize and maintain dictatorships. As a result of the teachings in this book, Machiavelli's very name has become an adjective - 'Machiavellian' - that has come to denote political deception, cold-blooded calculation and the use of treachery as a means to seize power. It is presented here in its original and unabridged format, translated from the Italian by Luigi Ricci.
