Publisher's Synopsis

Accent On Power: The Life And Times Of Machiavelli is a biography of the Italian Renaissance philosopher, Niccol������ Machiavelli. The book is written by Valeriu Marcu and provides a detailed account of Machiavelli's life, including his childhood, education, political career, and literary works. The book also explores the cultural and political context of Machiavelli's time, including the Italian Wars, the Medici family, and the Renaissance movement. Marcu analyzes Machiavelli's most famous work, The Prince, and argues that it is a misunderstood and misrepresented text that is actually a critique of authoritarianism rather than a guide for rulers. The book is well-researched and provides a comprehensive understanding of Machiavelli's life and ideas. It is suitable for anyone interested in Renaissance history, political philosophy, or Italian culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
