Learn the TRUTH about Machiavelli and The Prince from a #1 Best-Selling Conservative Philosopher. Olavo de Carvalho, who President Bolsonaro himself credited for his arrival in power, uses all his powers of insight drawing on analysis from political science, psychology, philosophy and history, to illuminate the dark and sinister meaning behind Machiavelli's works, The Prince and Discourses.
There is no doubt that Machiavelli was a smart, skilled, and provocative writer. The Prince is one of the most significant books ever written for students of realpolitik, gaining power, and political sciences. Indeed, today, it has become an accepted part of American culture, studied by businessmen, professors, and politicians alike.
But what if Machiavelli was a bit too smart for our own good? What if the same trickery he advocates for in The Prince, he actually turns against his own readers in that same book?
Here, Olavo lays out the real truth behind Machiavelli and The Prince. Far from being some type of scholar, or objective political scientist, he laid traps for his reader. He quoted the Bible, but would flip its meaning on its head, to spread demonic confusion, and successfully too, considering Stalin and Hitler both studied Machiavelli. He posed as a realist when in fact his analysis was the height of naivety.
This is the book you need to read to understand the truth about the dangerous legacy and teachings of Machiavelli.
Inside you will learn about the following:
Brief History of Interpretations of Machiavelli. Machiavelli's purposeful deception of readers. How Machiavelli's analysis was actually the height of naivety. Olavo's concept of "cognitive parallax" and its importance. Machiavelli's Parodic Inversion of Christianity
Author, Jeff Nyquist: For those interested in the intersection of political philosophy and morality, Olavo's book on Machiavelli is a great read. Gil Vietor: I am going to make my boys read this, before they take any Philosophy class.
Glenn Beck, what he will say after reading this book: Must read book. Olavo is a genius. And the way he unravels the history of lies and deceit of Machiavelli is amazing. You need to read this to understand the truth about The Prince, and realize how many people today are duped by his lies.
