Preview Republican Realism in Renaissance Florence: Francesco Guicciardini's Discorso di Logrogno

Description:
This text makes available in English the essay, "How to Bring Order to Popular Government", by Renaissance thinker Francesco Guicciardini. In addition to his translation of the essay, Moulakis provides an analysis of this work. He shows that, far from representing a revival of ancient republicanism, the long maturation of Florentine constitutional thought "brought to lucid expression by Guicciardini" points to a distinctly modern idea of the republican state.
