Description
Step into a sunlit intellectual journey with One Summer with Machiavelli, where renowned French historian Patrick Boucheron brings the Renaissance fire of Niccolò Machiavelli to life. Originally broadcast in summer 2016 on French radio and published the following year, this vivid reflection blends sharp historical insight with a warm, conversational tone. In just over a hundred erudite pages, Boucheron playfully probes enduring questions—what does it mean to govern? Is sovereignty rooted in virtue or fear? “The people know their oppressor,” he reminds us, turning Machiavelli from cold strategist into a voice of the populace. As you flip through its engaging vignettes, you’ll find yourself both challenged and charmed—feeling the blazing sun of Florentine power dynamics and the refreshing clarity Boucheron offers. It’s a smart, spirited summer companion for readers curious about politics, history, and the art of good questions.
