Niccolo Machiavelli's The Prince is one of the most influential
works in the history of political thought and the adjective
Machiavellian is well-known and perhaps even over-used. So why does
the meaning of the text continue to be debated to the present day?
And how does a contemporary reader get to grips with a book full of
references to the politics of the early 16th Century? The Routledge
Guidebook to Machiavelli's The Prince provides readers with the
historical background, textual analysis, and other relevant
information needed for a greater understanding and appreciation of
this classic text. This guidebook introduces: the historical,
political and intellectual context in which Machiavelli was working
the key ideas developed by Machiavelli throughout the text and the
examples he uses to illustrate them the relationship of The Prince
to The Discourses and Machiavelli's other works Featuring a
timeline, maps and suggestions for further reading throughout, this
book is an invaluable guide for anyone who wants to be able to
engage more fully with The Prince.
