Niccolo Machiavelli

Sotatieteiden ylittämätön klassikko nyt ensimmäistä kertaa suomeksi! Firenzeläisen filosofin ja valtiomiehen Niccolo Machiavellin (1469-1527) Dell'arte della guerra eli Sotataidosta ilmestyi vuonna 1521, ja se on yksi maailman suurimmista sotatieteen ja poliittisen teorian klassikoista. Kirjaa ovat käyttäneet oppaanaan monet maailman suurista sotapäälliköistä, muun muassa Fredrik Suuri ja Napoleon I, samoin sotateoreetikko Carl von Clausewitz. Machiavelli esittelee kirjassa oppejaan dialogin muodossa. Firenzeläisessä Orti Oricellarin puutarhassa päähenkilö Fabrizio Colonna ja hänen tuttavansa ruotivat sotilaallisen organisaation ja strategian perusteita, sotilaiden motivoimista, vihollisen lannistamista, väijytysten välttämistä ja taktisen ja strategisen edun saavuttamista erilaisissa olosuhteissa. Dialogia värittävät lukuisat esimerkit antiikin ajan sodankäyntitekniikoista. Suomentaja Antti Immonen on filosofi, joka on kääntänyt aiemmin kymmeniä kirjoja eri aloilta. Machiavelli-asiantuntijat dosentti Mikko Lahtinen ja sotilasprofessori Marko Palokangas ovat kirjoittaneet teoksen merkitystä valaisevan johdannon.

Kaikkien aikojen tunnetuin hallitsemisen käsikirja nyt uutena suomennoksena. Firenzeläisen filosofin ja valtiomiehen Niccolo Machiavellin (1469-1527) Il Principe eli Ruhtinas ilmestyi ensimmäisen kerran vuonna 1532. Ruhtinas on yksi vaikuttavimmista ja vaikutusvaltaisimmista uuden ajan poliittisen filosofian tutkielmista. Machiavelli kirjoitti teoksensa ohjekirjaksi hallitsijoille, erityisesti Lorenzo de' Medicille, jonka toivoi kohottavan Firenzen entiseen loistoonsa ja yhdistävän Italian. Ruhtinas sisältää kosolti teräviä havaintoja suurten johtajien käytännöllisistä, juonikkaista ja jopa häikäilemättömistä vallanpitokeinoista, ja sen sisältämät ohjeet ovat sekä ihastuttaneet että kauhistuttaneet ihmisiä julkaisemisestaan saakka. Machiavellin näkemyksistä ja tarkoitusperistä on myös esitetty hyvin erilaisia tulkintoja. Vaikka näennäisesti Ruhtinas kuvaa oman aikansa vallankäyttöä, siitä huokuu laaja-alainen ymmärrys vallanpidosta, ja siksi se onkin ollut poliittisen kirjallisuuden ylittämätön klassikko jo liki viidensadan vuoden ajan. Italiassa asuvan kääntäjän Taru Nyströmin uusi mestarillinen suomennos on sujuva ja tavoittaa tarkasti Machiavellin ylistetyn klassikon vivahteet. Teokseen on laatinut johdannon ansioitunut filosofi ja politiikan tutkija Mikko Lahtinen.
