The Prince, Chapter 5: riassunto
Chapter 5 di 28 · 2 min per leggere il capitolo
In Chapter 5, the narrator sets out three ways to hold formerly free states: destruction, personal residence, or local government under the conqueror’s protection. Examples of Spartan and Roman rule support the warning that memories of liberty sustain rebellion, making destruction or residence the safest policies for controlling republics.
Cosa succede
- The narrator lists destruction, personal residence, and tribute-paying local oligarchy as three ways to control states accustomed to freedom.
- Dependent local rulers support the conquering prince because their government needs his protection.
- Spartan failures and Roman conquests illustrate the risks of preserving conquered cities and their laws.
- Pisa illustrates how memories of liberty can inspire rebellion even after a hundred years of subjection.
- Former princely states accept new rule more easily, while republics retain stronger hatred and a desire for revenge.

Cosa notare
