9780198780885 / Machiavelli (Founders of Modern Political and Social Thought) 1st Edition
by Oxford University Press; 1st edition (February 4, 1999) (Author) This book presents a critical examination of Machiavelli’s thought, combining an accessible, historically-informed account of his work with a reassessment of his central ideas and arguments. Viroli challenges the accepted interpretations of Machiavelli’s work, insisting that his republicanism was based not on a commitment to virtue, greatness, and expansion, but to the ideal of civic life protected by the shield of fair laws. His detailed study of how Machiavelli composed The Prince offers a number of new interpretations and he further contends that the most challenging–and underestimated–aspect of Machiavelli’s thought is his philosophy of life, in particular his conceptions of love, women, irony, God, and the human condition.
