Book Description

Alba December 1, 1999
El Príncipe, de Nicholás Maquiavelo (1469-1527), es una obra clásica en materia políticay de gran trascendencia dentro de la cultura occidental. Maquiavelo es, además de un gran teórico del pensamiento político, uno de los grandes prosistas en lengua italiana del s. XVI.

Atacado por muchos y defendido también con firmeza, Maquiavelo nos demuestra su talento de escritor y la forma de conseguir y mantener el poder.

Con esta obra, escrita cuando ya se había retirado de la vida pública, Maquiavelo presenta su genio, eminentmente práctico.

4.0 out of 5 stars Para entender por que estamos tan mal..., October 24, 2003
By 
This review is from: El Principe (Alba) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Definitivamente, muchos gobernantes, funcionarios, politicos, hombres de empresa, etc. han tomado a El Principe como un manual. Si alguna vez nos hemos preguntado por que las obras de los politicos no terminan de traer el bien comun en la mayoria de los paises, aqui encontraremos una parte de la respuesta. Para resumir el libro en una frase, Maquiavelo dice que el fin justifica los medios. La crueldad, la perfidia y la intriga son medios para que el gobernante conserve e incremente el Estado. Leer directamente EL PRINCIPE de Maquiavelo, nos puede dejar con un malestar interno, asi que para digerirlo mejor y entender a Maquiavelo, recomiendo leerlo junto con el espectacular ensayo NICOLAS MAQUIAVELO EN SU QUINTO CENTENARIO por ANTONIO GOMEZ ROBLEDO. Este ensayo viene como prologo a la edicion de EL PRINCIPE de Editorial Porrua (Mexico).

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, August 4, 2000
This review is from: El Principe (Alba) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
I am a frequent consumer of the so called sub-literature (like most teenagers), but forgive me my dear friends Anne Rice, Marion Bradley, Stephen King, Sidney Sheldon, etc... I love your work, but finally I found myself reading a DECENT and INTELLIGENT and USEFUL book by a genious called Maquiavelo. "The Prince" deserves to be used as a manual, not barely read... I don't say it should be followed blindly, though it should be mentally discussed by all. ESSENTIAL READING !

5.0 out of 5 stars Todos los politicos y quienes votan por ellos deberian leerlo, June 11, 2010
By 
Jeffrey (Amsterdam, Holland) - See all my reviews
El Príncipe (en el original en italiano: Il Principe) es un tratado de doctrina política compuesto por Nicolás Maquiavelo en 1513 mientras se encontraba en San Casciano confinado por la acusación de haber conspirado en contra de los Médici. Maquiavelo dedicó la obra a Lorenzo II de Médici, hijo de Pedro II de Medici, con la esperanza de reconquistar el encargo de Secretario de la República, y fue publicada póstumamente en 1532. Se trata sin duda de su obra con más renombre, aquella por la cual ha nacido el sustantivo "maquiavelismo" y el adjetivo "maquiavélico".
A pesar del uso despectivo que se le da al término "maquiavélico" no es otra cosa sino un ser con un gran conocimiento de la psicología humana, un gran sentido común y sobre todo muy pragmático , inclusive muchos hombres de negocios han extrapolado algunas ideas de él.
