Excerpt from Gli Animali Parlanti, Vol. 4: Poema Epico
E questo fu l'ogge7tto unico e vero, Che a se stesso ogni popolo propose; Quando ad un sol confidņ regno, e impero, E al timon del governo un solo pose: Altro l'oggetto esser non puņ, ne debbo, E se altro fosse mai, nullo sarebbe.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book chronicles a parliament meeting amongst various animal species, offering a unique perspective on political and social ideologies prevalent during the 18th century. The author, writing under a pseudonym, uses animal characters to ingeniously parallel human societal structures and the ensuing power struggles that arise within them. The main theme explores the delicate balance between democracy and monarchy, with each animal representing a different viewpoint, highlighting the pros and cons of these contrasting systems. The author delves into topics such as freedom of speech, the role of government in protecting individual rights, and the dangers of both tyranny and anarchy. Beyond its historical and political insights, the book also delves into philosophical and moral dilemmasā"exploring the nature of justice, equality, and the human condition. The author argues that no single form of government is inherently superior, but rather that the best system is one that is tailored to the specific needs and characteristics of the society it governs. This thought-provoking and timeless work remains relevant today, providing valuable insights into the complexities of governance and the challenges faced by societies throughout history.
