    The Prince By NICCOLO MACHIAVELLI

    $8.00

    The Prince By NICCOLO MACHIAVELLI

    Introduction by Anthony Grafton

    Translated by George Bull

    Notes by George Bull

    Machiavelli’s highly influential treatise on political power

    The Prince shocked Europe on publication with its advocacy of ruthless tactics for gaining absolute power and its abandonment of conventional morality. Niccoló Machiavelli drew on his own experience of office under the turbulent Florentine republic, rejecting traditional values of political theory and recognizing the complicated, transient nature of political life. Concerned not with lofty ideal but with a regime that would last, The Prince has become the bible of realpolitik, and it still retains its power to alarm and to instruct. In this edition, Machiavelli’s tough-minded and pragmatic Italian is preserved in George Bull’s clear, unambiguous translation

  13. The Social Contract

    The Social Contract

    SKU: 4677

    $11.00

    The Social Contract By JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU Translated by Maurice Cranston

     “Man was born free, and he is everywhere in chains”

    These are the famous opening words of a treatise that has not ceased to stir vigorous debate since its first publication in 1762. Rejecting the view that anyone has a natural right to wield authority over others, Rousseau argues instead for a pact, or ‘social contract’, that should exist between all the citizens of a state and that should be the source of sovereign power. From this fundamental premise, he goes on to consider issues of liberty and law, freedom and justice, arriving at a view of society that has seemed to some a blueprint for totalitarianism, to others a declaration of democratic principles.
