Provide a 7 pages analysis while answering the following question: Thomas More and Niccolo Machiavelli on Human Nature. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. Speaking about Niccolo Machiavelli, it is first necessary to mention that his “The Prince” narrates about the real situations from the state life of his days, and many pieces of advice he gives to the prince are based on real historical facts which prove his point of view. Machiavelli is far from idealistic philosophic position and, therefore, is a materialist. moreover, in many places of his “The Prince” there are evidences that his materialistic views even justify immoral actions and behavior which would be beneficial for the governor. Moreover, his “The Prince” can be referred to as a manual on how to capture and hold the state power.Thomas More, on the contrary, supports idealistic views whish are perfectly reflected in his “Utopia”. He pays attention to such categories of the human life as moral, religion, dignity, nobility and many other positive features, which, compared to Machiavelli, serve as means of improvement of life. More also focuses on the life in general and covers many of its aspects, for example, the problem of thieves and the punishment they deserve, whereas Machiavelli limits only with the issue of the state power and the concept of a successful reign. Finally, More describes a non-existent ideal state, Utopia, with the same non-existent life organization, which, however, also give some good suggestions as to how to make the life of the society better. Primarily the materialistic versus idealistic outlook, shape the consideration of each thinker’s ideal society and influence on their perception of human nature.
