Prince Edward Island

The first half of the statement implies that the Prince has to be beloved by his people. He will garner such love from his people if he does not offend or harm them. The second half of the statement tells that if the Prince is to not commit any atrocities. If he behaves, then his subjects will be accepting of him, follow his rule, and not disobey.

Niccolo Machiavelli’s The Prince and Thomas More’s Utopia were written during a relatively similar time period in the early 1500s. Therefore, both Machiavelli and More’s main character, Raphael Hythloday, both have a lot of the same perspectives on human nature. They discuss the behavioral nature of kings as well as everyday people and outline the ways they conduct themselves. Essentially, both Machiavelli and Hythloday share the same views on human nature, mainly focusing on the fact that…

The Epic Journey of Princess Alara (and that other Prince) The day had come for Prince Casper and Princess Alara to journey across the vast nation of Sway. It had been tradition to always send a Prince from the east side of the kingdom to meet a Princess (from a different lineage, of course) who lived on the west side of the kingdom. Both royals must make the dangerous trek to the very center of their kingdom, in order for a grand wedding to take place. Alas, journeying east to west was much…

One of De Goya’s most famous pieces is his Charles IV of Spain and his family, which was created while under the appointment of King Charles IV himself. This painting creates an interesting light on De Goya’s view of the royal family, while using many techniques in order to perfect the life-size image, also puts on display and mocks the family’s power. The interesting dynamics and hierarchy of the family displayed in this painting gives the strongest feel of what was going on within the inner…

Machiavelli’s The Prince, and Sir Thomas More’s Utopia are seminal political treatise that examine in great detail the nature of virtue in humanity. While the concept of virtue and politics in both texts are crucial to both works, the way in which they are treated by the respective authors is divergent and in some circumstances completely polarised. Consideration of the environmental factors and historical influences surrounding both texts gives insight into the variation of virtue in the texts.…

"Have patience",exclaims dad every day we work on the farm. Some days on the farm are easy like just feeding cows. Other days are long and hard like pulling a calf at midnight or having to fix something when you need it the most. But every day on the farm is fun and relaxing. I don't like fixing something in the middle of summer on the one hundred and ten degree days. We got a call from the fence builder and the red angus and gelbvieh cross cows at the Frazer Farm did not have any water. So dad…

According to Lucius Annaeus Seneca, a major philosophical figure of the Roman Imperial Period, “All cruelty springs from weakness.” It traces back to an incident where the tyrant is made to feel weak by another. Reversing the roles, the tyrant imposes these identical feelings of frailty upon others, forming a cyclical process. In the play Othello, William Shakespeare depicts Seneca’s philosophy regarding the correlation between cruelty and weakness. Throughout the play, Roderigo continuously…

In Machiavelli's The Prince, Machiavelli instructs people wanting to gain political power should be more concerned with what is politically effective rather than what is morally right. Machiavelli encourages readers to do whatever is necessary to gain and keep power. While Machiavelli's methods seem harsh and extreme and I personally don't believe that they are ethically right, I believe they would allow a ruler to accomplish his goals of obtaining power. During the Renaissance when…

When you are born, you live, and then you die. It seems to be so simple. But on this very day, it has been 50 years and all I can see are thousands of the innocent remembering, mourning for the fallen. But none of them, none of them have any idea of what we went through when we landed the shores of Gallipoli not knowing what the outcome would be. As I walked through the gates, I took a poppy and pinned it on my dress over my heart. My heels dug into the grass every step I took as I maneuvered…
