En av världslitteraturens stora klassiker om maktens villkorNär Niccolò Machiavelli i början av 1500-talet skrev sitt mest berömda verk förnyade han radikalt en ärevördig medeltida genre: »furstespegeln«. I stället för att som brukligt glorifiera regentens roll, i moralens och dygdernas tecken, skrev Machiavelli utan krusiduller vad furstar i allmänhet gör för att överleva och bli framgångsrika. Fursten väckte förargelse och anstöt redan när den utgavs för första gången. Genom århundradena har den fortsatt att vara omstridd, fortsatt att fascinera, med sina skamlöst öppna reflektioner över maktens villkor. Och kanske har boken aldrig varit så aktuell som i vår tid. En av världslitteraturens stora klassiker, i svensk översättning av Karin Hybinette. NICCOLÒ MACHIAVELLI [1469-1527] var en florentinsk författare, filosof, historiker, diplomat och politiker. Machiavelli var 25 år gammal när släkten Medici föll från den florentinska makten 1494 - han gjorde snabb karriär i den nya republiken. När Medici återtog makten 1512 kastades Machiavelli i fängelse, torterades och undkom med en hårsmån att bli avrättad. Kort efter att han frigavs 1513 skrev Machiavelli Fursten, en historisk studie i furstars ledarskap med vägledande kommentarer och analyser. Några år senare togs han i Medicis tjänst. Fursten [Il Principe] publicerades 1532. »Thucydides, och Machiavellis Fursten, står mig närmast i fråga om den ovillkorliga viljan att inte låta sig luras, och att se förnuftet som någonting verkligt, inte som någonting förnuftigt , ännu mindre moraliskt « Friedrich Nietzsche

I ett av breven skildrar Machiavelli hur han skeptiskt lyssnar till Savonarolas botpredikningar, och i ett annat hur han, efter att ha fått lämna sin tjänst som sekreterare i Andra kansliet, vistas på sin lilla lantgård utanför Florens. Han besöker dagligen bykrogen, där han spelar kort med ett par tegelbrännare och en slaktare. När kvällen kommer, träder han högtidsklädd in i sin kammare och samtalar med antikens vise. Tillsammans med Francesco Guicciardini skojar han med munkar i Capri, och försöker också råda sin vän inför den svåra uppgiften att gifta bort en dotter. Hösten 1526 och våren 1527 talar de båda vännerna nästan bara om det ökande krigshotet. I ett ömsint brev till sonen Guido uppmuntrar Machiavelli pojken i hans studier och ger honom goda råd i fråga om hans lilla mulåsna som har blivit tokig. Breven speglar Niccolò Machiavellis personlighet, hans klarsynthet, hans skarpa iakttagelseförmåga, hans självironi och vänfasthet.

This new edition of the acclaimed translation of Niccolò Machiavelli's The Prince - revised for the first time after thirty years - includes a rewritten and extended introduction by Quentin Skinner. Niccolò Machiavelli is arguably the most famous and controversial figure in the history of political thought. The Prince remains his best-known work, and throws down a challenge that subsequent writers on statecraft and political morality have found impossible to ignore. Quentin Skinner's introduction offers a lucid analysis of Machiavelli's text both as a response to the world of Florentine politics and as a critical engagement with the classical and Renaissance genre of advice-books for princes. This new edition also features an improved timeline of key events in Machiavelli's life, helping the reader place the work in the context of its time, in addition to an enlarged and fully updated bibliography.

Niccol Machiavelli (1469-1527) war ein florentinischer Philosoph, Politiker, Diplomat, Geschichtsschreiber und Dichter. Vor allem aufgrund seines Werks Il Principe ("Der F rst") gilt er als einer der bedeutendsten Staatsphilosophen der Neuzeit. Machiavelli ging es hier - im Ansatz neutral - darum, Macht analytisch zu untersuchen, anstatt normativ vorzugehen und die Differenz zwischen dem, was sein soll und dem, was ist, festzustellen. Er orientierte sich in seiner Analyse an dem, was er f r empirisch feststellbar hielt. Sein politisches und literarisches Werk, Discorsi, ist dar ber in den Hintergrund getreten. Der sp ter gepr gte Begriff Machiavellismus wird oft als abwertende Beschreibung eines politischen Verhaltens gebraucht, das zwar raffiniert ist, aber ohne ethische Einfl sse von Moral und Sittlichkeit die eigene Macht und das eigene Wohl als Ziel sieht. Sein Name wird daher heute h ufig mit r cksichtsloser Machtpolitik unter Ausnutzung aller Mittel verbunden. Der F rst (italienisch Il Principe) wurde um 1513 von Niccol Machiavelli verfasst. Nur stilistisch in der langen Tradition der mittelalterlichen F rstenspiegel geschrieben, gilt Der F rst als eines der ersten - wenn nicht als das erste - Werk der modernen politischen Philosophie.
