The book explores a significant transformation in the language and concept of politics between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, arguing it constituted a "revolution of politics" with global and profound implications. It details how political science's status shifted from a noble pursuit to one viewed as corrupt and depraved, undermining its role in combating corruption. The author aims to address the overlooked importance of this revolution in political thought and advocates for a renewed perspective on politics as a worthy commitment.
Niccolo Machiavelli (1459-1527) is one of the influential modern political thinkers. This work shows that Machiavaelli taught instead the best way to attain glory through political action and that his works were inspired by love of republican liberty.
