Niccolò Machiavelli
© Antonio Maria Crespi Castoldi
Niccolò Machiavelli (1469–1527) was an Italian diplomat, politician, historian, philosopher and writer of the Renaissance period. As a young Florentine envoy to the courts of France and the Italian principalities, he witnessed firsthand how people could be united under a powerful leader. This vision motivated his writing on acquiring and maintaining political power.
