I have not read The Prince, though I did watch a short synopsis on YouTube before reading, and was not super familiar with Machiavelli or Italian history. I felt like this lack of background made this book less engaging, as I can't really evaluate the premise of Benner's arguments. In general it does seem to me Machiavelli did seem to be a guy who believed in the rule of law, and republics, but if The Prince was written as satire, he didn't do a good job as it seems to have been grossly misinterpreted.

Auszeichnungen
"Far from the ruthless Machiavellian henchman that people think he was, Machiavelli emerges here as a profound ethical thinker who fought to uphold high moral standards and restore the democratic freedoms of his beloved Florence. Shaking the dust from history, Benner ... interweaves Machiavelli's words with those of his friends and enemies, giving us a biography with all the energy of fiction"--Amazon.com.
