NICCOLÒ MACHIAVELLI (1469–1527) in his youth read extensively in Latin and Italian classics. The expulsion of the Medici in 1494 propelled Machiavelli into the office of secretary of the Florentine republic, a post he would hold from 1498 to 1512. He was an energetic and well-traveled statesman who was repeatedly dispatched as an envoy by the republic, for which he wrote many diplomatic despatches. In 1512, the Medici returned to power in Florence. Machiavelli was implicated in a conspiracy against them, was imprisoned and tortured, and released in 1513. Machiavelli’s political career now appeared at an end, and he turned to writing, an occupation that brought him far greater fame than that of any of his patrons.
