This eBook presents 2 Political Masterpieces by Niccolò Machiavelli: The Prince & The Art of War.
The Prince: 
Il Principe (The Prince) is a political treatise by the Florentine philosopher Niccolò Machiavelli, written c. 1513, published posthumously 1532. The Prince is sometimes claimed to be one of the first works of  modern political philosophy, in which the effective truth is taken to be more important than any abstract ideal. It was also in direct conflict with the dominant Catholic and scholastic doctrines of the time concerning how to consider politics and ethics. Machiavelli dedicated The Prince to the ruling Medici of the time, leading some today to still speculate whether the book was a satire. Niccolò Machiavelli asserted that The Prince (president, dictator, prime minister, etc.) does not have to be concerned with ethics, as long as their motivation is to protect the state. It is this questionable belief that in many ways had lead to the modern world as we know it. His assertion was that the head of state must protect the state no matter the cost and no matter what rules he or she breaks in the process.
The Art of War:
written between 1519 and 1520 and published in 1521. It was the only historical or political work printed during Machiavelli's lifetime. Voltaire said, "Machiavelli taught Europe the art of war; it had long been practiced, without being known." Machiavelli considered The Art of War his greatest achievement. This book teaches how to recruit, train, motivate, and discipline an army, shows the difference between strategy and tactics. Machiavelli does a masterful job of breaking down and analyzing historic battles.

The Prince + The Art of War (2 Unabridged Machiavellian Masterpieces)

IDiscorsi non sono un trattato sistematico, ma un insieme di osservazioni che, in forma di libero commento ai primi dieci libri delle Storie di Livio, investono i grandi problemi connessi alla dinamica della vita storica e politica. Sono inoltre un’opera scritta con impareggiabile vigore di stile e segnata da una straordinaria capacità di analisi. Una lettura – qui presentata dall’approfondita introduzione di Gennaro Sasso e arricchita dall’esaustivo apparato di note di Giorgio Inglese – indispensabile a chi voglia penetrare nella sua autentica complessità il pensiero politico di Machiavelli, troppo spesso irrigidito in formule spregiudicate e semplicistiche.

Discours sur la première décade de Tite-Live

Das berühmteste Lehrbuch der Macht von Niccolò Machiavelli ist Weltliteratur.

Der Fürst

"Der Fürst" enthält eine Anleitung zur praktischen Ausübung von Herrschaft. Machiavelli beschreibt Methoden des Machterwerbs und der Machtsicherung gegen starke Widersacher, befasst sich also mit nicht-ererbter Macht. Der "Fürst" (ital. Originaltitel: Il Principe) übt als Lehrbuch der Macht bis heute großen Einfluss auf die Politik aus.

Einige der von Niccolo Machiavelli geprägten Ratschläge haben es zu hoher Popularität gebracht. Dazu gehört die Strategie, harte und unpopuläre Maßnahmen stets an den Beginn einer Herrschaftsperiode zu legen. Dabei setzt Machiavelli auf die Vergesslichkeit der Menschen.

Kontrovers diskutiert wird Machiavellis Rat, ein Herrscher müsse für den Erfolg bereit sein, moralische Grundsätze zu opfern ("Machiavellismus"). Machiavelli berührt hier die ethische Grundfrage aller Machtausübung, ob ein Herrscher die Mittel des Bösen zur Erreichung des Guten einsetzen darf. Seine Antwort fällt eindeutig aus.

Erfolgreiche Vorgehensweisen illustriert Machiavelli am Beispiel einiger Herrscher seiner Epoche, indem er deren Erfolge und Fehler in konkreten Entscheidungssituationen aufzeigt.

Here is the world's most famous master plan for seizing and holding power. Astonishing in its candor The Prince even today remains a disturbingly realistic and prophetic work on what it takes to be a prince . . . a king . . . a president. When, in 1512, Machiavelli was removed from his post in his beloved Florence, he resolved to set down a treatise on leadership that was practical, not idealistic. In The Prince he envisioned would be unencumbered by ordinary ethical and moral values; his prince would be man and beast, fox and lion. Today, this small sixteenth-century masterpiece has become essential reading for every student of government, and is the ultimate book on power politics.

L'Art de la guerre, publié en 1521, occupe une place singulière dans l'œuvre de Machiavel. Présenté sous la forme d'un dialogue, l'ouvrage surprend par son esprit peu machiavélique. Les considérations tactiques y côtoient les propos consacrés aux nécessités matérielles de la guerre (recrutement, armement...), orchestrant avec subtilité une réflexion sur le pouvoir. Quelles limites la politique impose-t-elle à l'art de la guerre ? Comment définir l'autorité ? Ce sont là quelques-unes des questions soulevées par Machiavel qui puise ses modèles chez les Anciens. En grand stratège, il omet parfois de répondre. Mais la guerre est une affaire si sérieuse qu'il faut peut-être savoir la manier avec ironie.
