Discourses on Livy
Niccolo Machiavelli
This classic work on modern republicanism explores Machiavelli's radical vision of a new science of politics. The English translation, faithful to the Italian text, includes a substantial introduction, explanatory notes, and a glossary. Within the Discourses lie the seeds of modern political thought, inspiring scholars for five centuries. A model of contemporary scholarship, it allows the great Florentine to speak in his own voice.
