The dramatic, mythshattering story of how Machiavelliarguably the most misunderstood thinker of all timefought to change his corrupt world.Since the publication of The Prince five centuries ago, Machiavelli has been associated with political amorality. But that characterization is unfair. In Be Like the Fox, Erica Benner sets the record straight: far from the ruthless Machiavellian henchman that people think he was, Machiavelli emerges here as a profound ethical thinker who fought to uphold high moral standards and restore the democratic freedoms of his beloved Florence.Shaking the dust from history, Benner masterfully interweaves Machiavellis words with those of his friends and enemies, giving us a biography with all the energy of fiction. Through dialogues and diaries, we witness dramatic episodes, including Savonarolas fiery sermons against the elite in Florences piazza, Machiavellis secret negotiations with Caterina Sforza at the court of Forl, and the Florentines frantic preparations to resist Pope Juliuss plan to overthrow their Republic.Benner relates how Machiavelli rose as an advisor in the Florentine Republic, advancing the citys interests as a diplomat and military strategist, only to become a political pariah when the Republic was defeated. His egalitarian politics made him an enemy of the Medici family, and his secular outlook put him at odds with religious zealots. But he soon learned to mask his true convictions, becoming a great artist of foxlike dissimulation. Machiavellis masterpiece, The Prince, was in fact a critique of princely power, but the critique had to be veiled, written as it was after the Medici triumphed over the Republic.In Be Like the Fox, the most accurate and compelling portrait of Machiavelli yet, Benner recounts the gripping story of a brilliant political thinker, showing that Machiavellis ideasabout democratic institutions, diplomacy, and freedomare more important than ever.
