"It is safer to be feared than loved." These words embody the
spirit of The Prince, Niccolo Machiavelli's classic work of
political philosophy. Machiavelli's advice for how a ruler should
acquire and ruthlessly exercise power over others continues to be
relevant to contemporary readers more than five centuries after it
was first published. This is one of Barnes & Noble's
'Collectible Editions' classics. Each volume features authoritative
texts by the world's greatest authors in an elegantly designed
bonded-leather binding, with distinctive gilt edging. Durable and
collectible, these volumes are an indispensable cornerstone of
every home library.
Having spent his entire life in conflict-riven Florence, Niccolo
Machiavelli composed this classic study of power and politics in
response to the governmental troubles of his day. Controversial but
nonetheless highly influential, this tract has impacted such major
figures as Napoleon, Frederick the Great, and Mussolini. This
edition is accompanied by G. W. F. Hegel's commentary on
Machiavelli in his "Constitution of Germany."

With notes and an apparatus, a new translation of Hegel's essay
"Machiavelli's "The Prince" and Italy," and the first pages of "The
Prince" in the original Italian
At the end of an industrious political career in conflict-riven
Italy, the Florentine diplomat Niccolo Machiavelli composed his
masterpiece "The Prince," a classic study of power and politics,
and a manual of ruthlessness for any ambitious ruler. Controversial
in his own time, the work made Machiavelli's name a byword for
manipulative scheming, and had an impact on such major figures as
Napoleon and Frederick the Great. It contains principles as true
today as when they were first written almost five centuries
ago.
