00 Hardcover DG540 Novelist and author Strathern illustrates the development of the Italian Renaissance and the tumult of the times through the lives and actions of three very different men: Niccolo Machiavelli, Leonardo da Vinci, and Cesare Borgia.
Studying this checkered past with care, both Niccolo Machiavelli (whom some see as the founder of realism) and Charles de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu (who could be considered a founder of liberal internationalism), sought ways to combine the security advantages of large empires with the freedom (from military rule especially) of healthy republics.
Edito da Patricia Vilches (Lawrence University) e Gerald Seaman (Ripon College), questo libro si propone di definire la figura di Niccolo Machiavelli attraverso i contributi multidisciplinari di sedici docenti di area anglofona.
