Niccolò Machiavelli and the Vicissitudes of Fortune
TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Niccolò Machiavelli and the Vicissitudes of Fortune
Friday 03 May 2024 is the 555th anniversary of the birth of Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli (03 May 1469 – 21 June 1527), who was born in Florence on this date in 1469.
Machiavelli’s influential political thought shocked his contemporaries and those who followed him with his honesty and directness, but no one could neglect him. Even when Machiavelli was condemned, it was understood that he had written things that were relevant, even if repellant. It could be argued that Machiavelli’s thought was too powerful for his time, and it is only in subsequent centuries that he could be put in proper perspective—a process that we begin to see in the nineteenth century with Fichte and Clausewitz.
