The secrets of men since born: Il Machiavelli di Lord Acton
2011
Lord Acton was one of the most eminent intellectuals of the Victorian age. His political thought aimed at reconciling his Catholic faith with liberal prin-ciples. Although he has never written a book, his essays expressed an histo-riography that has exerted great influence in the study of history, the most known example of which is the Cambridge Modern History, conceived by Lord Acton himself. This article aims at showing that his interpretation of Ma-chiavelli, expressed in the introduction to the famous edition of the Prince edited by Arthur Burd, is a precious testimony of the widespread circulation of Machiavellian thought in Europe.
Gli studi machiavelliani di Alphonse Dantier ne "Le Correspondant"
2011
From September 1871 to July 1873 Alphonse Dantier (1810-1882) published, for the prestigious magazine of liberal Catholic inspiration, Le Correspondant, some contributions on the history of Florence, The Medicis and Machiavelli, collected in 1874 in the second volume of his work L’Italie: études historiques for which he was awarded the prize of the Académie Française Marcelin Guérin. Dantier, although anchored to the simplified cliché of Machiavelli “negative genius”, perceived the historiographical talent of the author of Historie fiorentine and contributed to introduce the French Catholic reader to the commitment of the Republican Machiavelli in the sixteenth-century, documenting it throu…

2006
Uskonnon asema Niccolò Machiavellin (1469–1527) politiikan teoriassa on herättänyt laajaa keskustelua. Toisten mukaan Machiavelli oli harras katolilainen ja huolestunut siitä, että poliittisessa toiminnassa ei voi seurata kristillisiä ohjeita. Toisaalta on väitetty, että Machiavelli oli ateisti, jonka tarkoituksena oli erottaa politiikka ja moraali toisistaan ja hävittää uskonto kokonaan. Useimmiten Machiavelli nähdään uuspakanallisuuden kannattajana, sillä hän ihaili antiikin Roomaa ja sen uskonnollisia käytäntöjä.Machiavellin ”reformaatiota” väitöstyössään tutkinut Paul-Erik Korvela esittää, että kaikki nämä näkemykset ovat harhaanjohtavia.Renessanssin aikainen kirkko ja erityisesti sen y…

Znaczenie doświadczanych emocji dla rozwiązywania zadań problemowych przez makiawelistów
2017
The study shows that there is a connection between machiavellism and the way of solving problem tasks in the situation when selected emotions are inducted. The results also show that people with a high level of machiavellism are characterized by stop self-control (DeBoer, B., Van Hooft, E., Bakker, A., 2011) and that induction of emotions among these people doesn’t have the same connection with the way of solving problem tasks as among people with low level of machiavellism. Additionally, the results show that people with high level of machiavellism don’t trust other people and are competitive.
