Belfador is the single novella remaining of Machiavelli’s works. It was considered one of the finest of the period. Machiavelli was considered a skilled storyteller by all who knew him for, after all, stories form the basis of his most famous work, The Prince, "Belfagor" is a compact version of lessons from The Prince.

Here is the world's most famous master plan for seizing and holding power. Astonishing in its candor, The Prince is a disturbingly realistic and prophetic work on what it takes to be a prince, a king, a president.

In The Prince, it is asserted that a good ruler is one who works for the benefit of the state at all times, even when this requires acting immorally or unethically. Basically, the ends justify the means, even if the means are killing innocent people, blackmailing, and being deceitful. This idea was contentious then and now - many people believe that rulers should act with kindness and lawfulness above all, rather than bending ethics to achieve the ends they want.

Wie kann ein Fürst politische Macht erwerben und erhalten? Zahllosen Fürsten und Herrschern diente es als Handbuch für Politik. Oft als Verteidigung des Despotismus und der Tyrannei solcher Herrscher wie Cesare Borgia verstanden - ein Herrscher ist nicht an die überlieferten ethischen Normen gebunden. Nur der Erfolg zählt. Zeitlos modern für alle Gebiete der Wirtschaft und der Politik. Das berühmteste Werk Machiavellis.

Machiavelli, Machiavellist miydi? Mezar taşına “hiçbir övgü bu adın büyüklüğüne erişemez” yazılan Machiavelli, son çağın politik bilimini kurmuş ve bu bilime pratik mantığı sokmak suretiyle de felsefi bir özgünlük kazandırmıştır. Machiavelli, hemen her devirde değişik dünya görüşüne sahip kişilerce göklere çıkarılan veya yerin dibine batırılan ama asla ilgisiz kalınamayan “diri” bir düşünürdür. Prens, işte böyle bir düşünürün, siyaset konusunda hangi ülkeden veya hangi düşünceden olursa olsun herkes için geçerli sayılacak kuramların işlendiği bir yapıttır.

Our fear of the Devil, whatever his temptations and rewards, is amplified by the thought of eternal damnation in his hell house service. In this volume our authors are all from Europe and see the Devil in ways that we recognise and yet are culturally distinct to the European mainland.
