Book excerpt: Excerpt from Machiavelli And The Elizabethan Drama While ransacking the British Museum for more light on the subject, I came across Gentillet's Discours sur les Moyens de bien gouverner et maintenir en bonne paix nu Royaume ou entre Principaute Centre Nicholas Machiavel, Florentin, popularly called contre-machiavel, which, as students know from Mehl (geschichte und Literatur der and Villari (niccolo Machiavelli e i suoi tempi) was wide read and used by the Florentine's antagonists during the 16th and 17th centuries. Searce were a few pages perused, when it became perfectly evident, that this was the book from which the dramatists drew: careful study of the same, together with the discovery that an English translation was made by one Simon Patericke in 1577, the year after its appearance in French, has proved Gentillet, beyond doubt, the source of all the Elizabethan misunderstanding.

This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 1106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Times of Niccolo Machiavelli So many books on the Renaissance have appeared of late, that it is only natural to regard the public as almost wearied of the theme, and on the point of refusing attention to anything connected with it. Therefore, I believe it may be useful to indicate what are the points of permanent value - not, assuredly, of my own work, but of its subject. I have shown elsewhere that I was impelled to study the Renaissance not only because we find in that period the primary source of many national qualities and defects, but because we may likewise discover therein the cause of many erroneous judgments passed on us by foreigners. Accordingly, the study of the Renaissance appeared to me to offer the best means of teaching us Italians to know ourselves, correct our faults, and tread the path of progress.

Download or read book Tyranny in Shakespeare written by Mary Ann McGrail and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even the most explicitly political contemporary approaches to Shakespeare have been uninterested by his tyrants as such. But for Shakespeare, rather than a historical curiosity or psychological aberration, tyranny is a perpetual political and human problem. Mary Ann McGrail's recovery of the playwright's perspective challenges the grounds of this modern critical silence. She locates Shakespeare's expansive definition of tyranny between the definitions accepted by classical and modern political philosophy. Is tyranny always the worst of all possible political regimes, as Aristotle argues in his Politics? Or is disguised tyranny, as Machiavelli proposes, potentially the best regime possible? These competing conceptions were practiced and debated in Renaissance thought, given expression by such political actors and thinkers as Elizabeth I, James I, Henrie Bullinger, Bodin, and others. McGrail focuses on Shakespeare's exploration of the conflicting and contradictory passions that make up the tyrant and finds that Shakespeare's dramas of tyranny rest somewhere between Aristotle's reticence and Machiavelli's forthrightness. Literature and politics intersect in Tyranny in Shakespeare, which will fascinate students and scholars of both.
