It investigates comparative descriptions of non-European peoples, Renaissance representations of Muḥammad and the Ottoman military discipline, a Jesuit treatise in Persian for a Mughal emperor, peculiar readers from Brazil to India, and the parallel lives of Machiavelli and the bureaucrat Celālzāde Muṣṭafá. Ten distinguished scholars analyse the backgrounds, circulation and reception of Machiavelli’s writings, focusing on many aspects of the mutual exchange of political theories and grammars between East and West. A significant contribution to attempts by current scholarship to challenge any rigid separation within Eurasia, this volume restores a sense of the global spreading of books, ideas and men in the past. .Middle East—HistoryEurope—History—1492-Italy—HistoryIntellectual life—HistoryHistory of the Middle Easthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/715060History of Early Modern Europehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717030History of Italyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717050Intellectual Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/729000Middle East—History.Europe—History—1492-.Italy—History.Intellectual life—History.History of the Middle East.History of Early Modern Europe.History of Italy.Intellectual Studies.956Biasiori Lucioedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMarcocci Giuseppeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtScuola normale superiore (Italy),Machiavelli, Islam and the East (Conference)(2013 :Pisa, Italy)BOOK9910299811103321Machiavelli, Islam and the East1552591UNINA
