Oeo Strauss argued that the most visible fact about Machiavelli's doctrine is also the most useful one: Machiavelli seems to acher of wickedness.

Oeo Strauss argued that the most visible fact about Machiavelli's doctrine is also the most useful one: Machiavelli seems to acher of wickedness. Strauss sought 'to incorporate this idea in his interpretation without permitting it to overwhelm or exhaust his exegesis of The Prince and the Discourses on the First Ten Books of Livy. "We are in sympathy," he writes, "with the simple opinion about Machiavelli [namely the wickedness of his teaching], not only because it is wholesome, but above all because a failure to take that opinion seriously prevents one from doing justice to what is truly admirable in Machiavelli: the intrepidity of his thought, the grandeur of his vision, and the graceful subtlety of his speech." Strauss himself was sensitive to that "subtlety of speech," and responded to it in kind even as he labored to put the message it carried before the reader. Thoughts on Machiavelli is not a Machiavellian book, but it respects the genius of the Florentine author, and pays him the respect of using his artfulness with grace and restraint. This critique of the founder of modern political philosophy by this prominent twentieth-century scholar is an essential text for students of both authors. Vissza
