Period+2+Machiavelli

**__ niccolo machiavelli __** The name he was given when he was born was Niccolo Machiavelli. When Machiavelli was born his parents knew that he was going to be great one day. As Machiavelli got older people saw him as a brilliant creator of political, and a cynical beast by others; he is considered the originator of the idea of a political pragmatism that says "the end justifies the means." Either way, his 1513 book //The Prince// is a landmark work in the history of political power. He later retired to his private estate and concentrated on studying and writing. A rumination on the acquisition and uses of power, //The Prince// remains a mainstay of college bookstores every where. Also if you go to any other place u can find out about him and what he did in life and what kind of man he was, and accomplishments he made and told to others.
