Discourses on Livy
This influential study contrasts the practices of ancient Rome with those of the author's 16th-century contemporaries. Machiavelli's The Prince offered advice on ruling a kingdom; in this treatise, he explains the structure and benefits of a republic. His still-controversial theories argue that a healthy political body requires conflict rather than stability.
