The comedy and tragedy of Machiavelli : essays on the literary works

The Italian statesman and political theorist, Niccolo Machiavelli, wrote not only political tracts but also comedies, poems, fables and letters that are seemingly lighthearted. The contributors to this volume explore the meanings of Machiavelli's literary works, the light as well as the dark.
