Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Machiavelli and the Elizabethans' is a scholarly exploration of the profound and often misunderstood influence of Niccolò Machiavelli on English literature and thought during the Elizabethan era. In this work, Mario Praz examines the transmission of Machiavellian ideas across the continent and their subsequent transformation into the popular English archetype of the 'Machiavel.'Praz delves into how Elizabethan playwrights and thinkers interpreted-and frequently misinterpreted-the political philosophy found in works like 'The Prince.' By analyzing the cultural reception of Italian political theory, this work sheds light on the broader intellectual exchange between Renaissance Italy and Tudor England. The text identifies the specific literary tropes and dramatic conventions that emerged from this cross-cultural encounter, providing essential insights into the works of Shakespeare, Marlowe, and their contemporaries.This study remains a significant contribution to the field of comparative literature, offering a nuanced look at the intersection of political science and dramatic art in the early modern period. It is an indispensable resource for readers interested in the history of ideas and the development of English Renaissance drama.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
