Series -- Crofts Classics [WIKIPEDIA] "The Prince is a 16th-century political treatise written by the Italian diplomat, philosopher, and political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli in the form of a realistic instruction guide for new princes. Many commentators have viewed that one of the main themes of The Prince is that immoral acts are sometimes necessary to achieve political glory. (...) The Prince is sometimes claimed to be one of the first works of modern philosophy, especially modern political philosophy, in which practical effect is taken to be more important than any abstract ideal. Its worldview came in direct conflict with the dominant Catholic and scholastic doctrines of the time, particularly those on politics and ethics." #Florence #Renaissance #booksale #Philosophy #collectiblebooks #Scarce #booksforsale #ThePrince #instabooks #Bookstagram #Vintage #bookcollecting #BooksBooksBooks #Bookworm #instaread #bibliophile #Bookworm #Books #PoliticalScience #Machiavellianism #Books #CuttleboneBooks #readersofinstagram #NiccoloMachiavelli #booksale #Medici #PoliticalPhilosophy #Antiquarian
