This volume provides the first survey of the unexplored connections between Machiavelli's works and the Islamic world, running from the Arabic roots of The Prince to its first translations into Ottoman Turkish and Arabic. This survey also explores the Discourses on Livy 's contribution to comparative descriptions of non-European peoples, Renaissance representations of Muhammad and the military discipline of the Ottomans, a Jesuit treatise in Persian for a Mughal emperor, tropical readers from Brazil to India, and the parallel lives of Machiavelli and the bureaucrat Celalzade Mus afá. In so doing, this volume makes a significant contribution to current scholarship's attempt to challenge any rigid separation within Eurasia and restore a sense of the global spreading of books, ideas and men in the past. Ten distinguished scholars analyse backgrounds, circulation and reception of Machiavelli's writings, focusing on many different aspects of the mutual exchange of political theories and grammars between East and West.
