Oridfn of "MachiavelIian."

A favorIte epithet for centuries, the
Word "Machiavellian," has seen tire
le IS service since the beginning of the
p resent war as an adjective to be
7nurled at rulers who are accused OF
being treacherouS and dlshonorable.
The adjective is derived from the name
of Niccolo Machiavelli of Florence,
Italy, who died in 1927.
Machiavelli, famous as an author,
wrote book, "The Prince" in an en-
deavor to prove that, for the estab-
lishment and maintenance OF govern
ment, any m cans might be resorted to,
no matter how tr,eacherOus. unlawful,
or dislonorable. The ruler would be
justified in 1lsing these forces, the au-
thor argued, because he would only
be pit1ing them against similar traits
of wickedness and tlteachery In his
people.
Machiavellf was a friend Of popular
gDvernment, and for several centuries
here We're a few who argued that
1.-THE Prince" did not truly represent
his princirles, but in reality was a
satire on rule by despots. The dispute
was set at rest in 1910, however, by
the discovery Of letter written by
Machiavelli. The author said he wrote
the book for the private reading OF
the Medici, an italian family of great
wealth and pow er, because he desired
to curry favor with them, and he had
no idea the bool1 was to be published
