Mandragola by Machiavelli Niccolo, First Edition (16 results)

Trade Paperback. Condition: Good. Firrst Edition Assumed. 57 Pages Stapled binding with green covers. There are seven lines of penciled notes on the front endpaper. Pages 12 thru 15 the character named Callimaco is high-lighted with green marker pen. No other marks. Mandragola is a rarity: a literary work written by a thinker who wrote political treatises of the greatest importance. This translation attempts to be as literal as is consistent with English usage. When possible, the same Italian word is rendered by the same English one. Special attention has been paid to words and phrases which are significant in other writings of Machiavelli-such as animo, bene, case del mondo, prudenzia, remedio, and virtu. In the poems, rhyme and meter have given way to meaning, although the stanzas, lines, and (where possible) word order of the Italian are reproduced. Idioms are translated as closely as possible in the text, and are explained in the notes. Passages in Latin are reproduced in the text and translated in the notes. The volume contains a brief Introduction and a Note on Names of Characters.

Softcover. Condition: Fine. New translation by J.R. Hale. Printed wrappers. Fine. Machiavelli's risqué, popular and best known play, a lively and ribald comedy. Though a considerable departure from his more widely-read political works, it is similarly based on an unsentimental observation of human nature. Pope Leo X ordered a theatre to be built specifically so that the population of Milan could enjoy the satire.

Paperback/garenloos. Condition: Net exemplaar. 1e druk. Een komedie van Machiavelli (1469-1527), wereldberoemd als auteur van 'Il Principe' (De Heerser). Omslag en typografie: Harm Meijer. Vertaald en ingeleid door Frans van Dooren. Machiavelli schreef dit theaterstuk in 1518. De Mandràgola (Alruin) vertelt het verhaal van Callìmaco Guadagni, een in Parijs woonachtige Florentijn, die aldaar de schoonheid van een hem onbekende Florentijnse hemelhoog hoort prijzen. Nieuwsgierig geworden, reist hij naar Florence om haar met eigen ogen te aanschouwen. Deze komedie, die geldt als de beste van de Italiaanse Renaissance, zo niet van de hele Italiaanse literatuur, is mede interessant omdat zij een aantal duidelijke thematische parallellen bevat met Machiavelli's politieke werk. 76 pag.
