Niccoló Machiavelli ( ) The Prince

Niccoló Machiavelli  Florence  Served & loved city  Self taught  Government worker  Traveled  Learned military & government  City-states vulnerable

Niccoló Machiavelli  Ousted by Medici family in 1512  Imprisoned & tortured  Wrote The Prince in 1513  To gain favor?

The Prince  Experts disagree on how to read:  Political realism:  Treat politics as science rather than ethics  Irony:  An indictment of tyranny that advises exactly what it seeks to expose  At its word  As literature “As a Prince, it is best to be both feared and loved. But if you have to choose between the two, it is better to be feared than loved.”

“A prince being thus obliged to know well how to act as a beast must imitate the fox and the lion, for the lion cannot protect himself from traps, and the fox cannot defend himself from wolves. One must therefore be a fox to recognize traps, and a lion to frighten wolves”  Role-play  Fox  Lion  Wolf

 What does your animal:  Think?  Feel?  Do?  What if a bigger animal threatens you?  What if you saw a human with a gun?  What if you saw something you wanted that is difficult to get?  A hen?  Meat that belongs to something else?  Megan Fox?
