Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set against the backdrop of Renaissance Florence, the book explores Machiavelli's true legacy as a champion of freedom rather than the tyrant often portrayed. As citizens strive to establish a republic after the Medici exile, Machiavelli dedicates himself to this cause. Despite his efforts, the Medici return to power, forcing him into political exile. Utilizing his wit and cunning, he crafts a defense of democracy through his writings and satirical works, positioning him as a relevant figure in contemporary discussions about governance and liberty.
