Abstract: Justus Lipsius’s Six Books of Politics is possibly the most influential early modern treatise of the art of politics. Lipsius writes against Machiavelli but draws on Tacitus, and proposes a radical brand of realism: we no longer live in Plato’s republic and must make do with «Romulus’s excrements». Through style and conception, the treatise brings to the fore an unexpected political persona: the intellectual. Keywords: Justus Lipsius, politics, neostoicism, tacticism, prudence |
