Discuss the themes of Virtu and Fortuna in The Prince.

Discuss the theme of Prince Virtu and Fortuna. Niccolo Machiavelli was born in Florence, Italy on May 3, 1469. In 1498, Florence became a republic, and Machiavelli gained its position in the Florence government. Later he was approved as Prime Minister of the Second Republic by the Prime Minister, he made him the interior minister. Within a month, he was elected secretary of the 10 Kingdom War, focusing on diplomacy and defense issues. In November, 1498, Machiavelli was sent to carry out his first diplomatic envoy, and he kept governing for many years.

A very controversial work by Niccolo Machiavelli The Prince succeeded in making several opposition groups appear. Among these objections are fortuna and virtu. These two terms increase the ambiguity of Machiavelli's work. By reference to historical events, this article is to define these two terms, when the prince in order to cope with the challenge of tuna at first glance the method must be "ethical", the Fortuna and virtue It seems almost impossible to define. The use of these words bothers the reader and continues to attract. Virtu occupied the first half of the book and finally succumbed to fortuna in the second half. Virtu includes all the qualities of an individual, especially the Prince, which allows him to achieve his goals. For example, Machiavelli explained Agathocles as individuals with "physical and mental strength".

Then Machiavelli keeps thinking about the relationship between luck and skill in getting and maintaining power. He has introduced two important terms: "luck", "opportunity", "accident" or means "wealth", "Fortuna", and virtual, which means literally "manly" or "skill". . "Crafty", "power", "ability" or "power". Which is more important to the prince? Machiavelli proposed over and over again that the prince should rely on virtual rather than relying on tuna. But the main advantage of virtualism is that the prince will be able to better utilize and master tuna ... he later said that tuna ("wealth is a woman") must be dominated I will say. But here he emphasized that the link between tuna and virtual is a prerequisite for a successful rule. Prince must be able to grab opportunities through what Machiavelli calls "lucky familiar" techniques.
