"The Prince" is presented in the form of a monarch treasure book that sells the technique of the emperor.However,when looking at the ancient and modern monarchs mentioned by Machiavelli in the "Monarchy",without exception,the tragic ending,and what is the trick? Machiavelli introduced a standard for evaluating monarchs that are different from Cicero 's classical morality—the monarch 's achievements are used to measure the quality of a monarch.Make behaviors that are most beneficial to your country according to the specific situation and not your own personality.However,despite this,the monarchs who have been struggling to become beasts still cannot escape the tragic fate of the same destination,and this is a curse of judgment and playfulness of fate.Machiavelli once claimed to be a historian,comedy writer and tragic writer in a letter to friends.By studying his works and understanding the irony he used skillfully,Machiavelli used this to construct a tragic world full of human depravity and moral decay.His historical work "Florentine Histories" used a playful way to explain the reason why Florence is increasingly weak.The flying yellow of the unreliable recipients.Those in the Medici family are exceptions to the law and are subject to justice.The asylum of the institution received a large amount of money,and they drained the country to protect themselves.His three comedy works "Andria","Mandragola" and "Clizia" are even the most disgusting deceptions in his comedy works Sometimes it even brings good results that everyone rejoices,what matters is not morality,but only results.The "Monarchy" on the surface aims to provide suggestions for the new monarch to help them stay stable for a long time.However,the "new" of the monarch contradicts the continuous rule of the monarch,and Machiavelli ignores the inheritance of the new monarch.It is precise that the new monarch is itself a Doomed tragedy.In the tragic world constructed by Machiavelli,it is not important whether it is a monarchy or a republic,but it is trying to maintain a minimum order through the new cruelty of the new monarchs and to use the ruler 's continuity to respond to the inevitable belt.The coming political corruption.After recognizing the darkness of the world,he did not sit still,but chose to believe in the glory of humanity and unyieldingly waged a fight against destiny,but he deeply felt the powerlessness in front of destiny,and the futile struggle could not change the ruthless destiny.Machiavelli destroyed the Western tradition of observing those in history wholly within nature and religious deities.Machiavelli,who subversively awakens the world and humans from the enchanted state,is thus,standing at the beginning of the disenchantment of modernity.His style will carry the kind of irony and ruthless judgment that has a "sense of destiny".Under the laughter and scolding,the fragility of ridicule of human nature,the decay of classical morality and the hypocrisy of religious forces have revealed this tragic world for people.
