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.
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."

Translated by C.E.Detmold. With an Introduction by Lucille Margaret
Kekewich. Written in 1513 for the Medici, following their return to
power in Florence, The Prince is a handbook on ruling and the
exercise of power. It remains as relevant today as it was in the
sixteenth century. Widely quoted in the Press and in academic
publications, The Prince has direct relevance to the issues of
business and corporate governance confronting global corporations
as they enter a new millennium. Much of what Machiavelli wrote has
become the common currency of realpolitik, yet still his ideas
retain the power to shock and annoy. In the words of Norman Stone,
The Prince is 'a manual of man-management that would suit a great
many parts of the modern world'.
