具体描述
"Discourses on Livy" is the founding document of modern republicanism, and Harvey C. Mansfield and Nathan Tarcov have provided the definitive English translation of this classic work. Faithful to the original Italian text, properly attentive to Machiavelli's idiom and subtlety of thought, it is eminently readable. With a substantial introduction, extensive explanatory notes, a glossary of key words, and an annotated index, the "Discourses" reveals Machiavelli's radical vision of a new science of politics, a vision of "new modes and orders" that continue to shape the modern ethos.
"[Machiavelli] found in Livy the means to inspire scholars for five centuries. Within the "Discourses", often hidden and sometimes unintended by their author, lie the seeds of modern political thought. . . . [Mansfield and Tarcov's] translation is careful and idiomatic".--Peter Stothard, "The Times"
"Translated with painstaking accuracy--but also great readability".-- "Weekly Standard"
"A model of contemporary scholarship and a brave effort at Machiavelli translation that allows the great Florentine to speak in his own voice".-- "Choice"
作者简介
Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli (1469–1527) was an Italian historian, philosopher, humanist, and writer based in Florence during the Renaissance. He is one of the main founders of modern political science.[1] He was a diplomat, political philosopher, playwright, and a civil servant of the Florentine Republic. He also wrote comedies, carnival songs, poetry, and some of the most well-known personal correspondence in the Italian language. His position in the regime of Florence as Secretary to the Second Chancery of the Republic of Florence lasted from 1498 to 1512, a period in which the Medici were not in power. Machiavelli's most well-known writing was, however, after this period, during the time when the Medici recovered power, and Machiavelli was removed from all positions of responsibility

毁誉参半的奇书 聂文聪 巴克纳·比·特拉维克说：“人们经常断章取义以证明作者道德沦丧，这种做法对于马基雅维利的整个论题来说有失公平和公正。我们必须承认，他将国家利益提升到了个人利益之上。” 莎士比亚称这本书的作者为“阴险狡诈、口是心非、背信弃义、残暴无情的...
评分【按语：马基雅维利的《论李维》通过评注李维的史书《自建城以来》，以夹叙夹议的方式进行史论，考察了古罗马建城以来的伟大政治宏业及其经验教训，其间特别比照了古罗马的尊严荣耀和今日意大利的凋敝沉沦。共3卷，卷1考察了罗马共和时期官方的谋略和决策；卷2考察了罗马建立大...
评分在《论李维》中，马基雅维利极端推崇罗马的体制（或者说德行），并且希望在当时的意大利推行这样的体制。（这点在《君主论》中表现得尤为强烈。） 他一反被众多人所接受的观点（当然这点也在《君主论》中更为明显），但是事实上也是更有效的。 “认为谦卑可以战胜傲慢的人，往...
