Allegories and Metaphors in Early Political Thought: From Plato to Machiavelli examines allegories and metaphors that best exemplify the ideologies of Plato, Aristotle, St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas, and Niccolo Machiavelli. Author Kevin Dooley's approach allows readers to gain a greater understanding of each thinker's ideas through the lens of metaphor, which stimulates imaginative discussions and more thoughtful reflections.
