Today’s Final Jeopardy 4/14/2023 (Writers’ Lesser-Known Works) – Friday, April 14 2023
Known for more philosophical works, he wrote the play “La Mandragola” in which Florentines are rewarded for immoral actions
Today’s Final Jeopardy Answer – Friday, April 14 2023
The Final Jeopardy Answer is: Niccolò Machiavelli
Final Jeopardy Explanation – Friday, April 14 2023
Niccol Machiavelli, a Renaissance philosopher from Italy, authored the satirical comedy La Mandragola (also known as The Mandrake in English).
The plot centres around Nicias, a wealthy trader, and his attractive wife Lucretia. A young man named Callimaco hears about the attractive wife and wishes to be her boyfriend. He discovers the couple’s fruitless child-bearing attempts and disguises himself as a doctor.
Although the five-act comedy was published in 1524 and first performed during the carnival season of 1526, it is speculated that Machiavelli began writing The Mandrake in 1518 as a diversion from his resentment over being shut out of Florence’s diplomatic and political life following the 1512 return to Medici rule.
Machiavelli is considered as the “Father of Modern Political Philosophy and Political Science.” He is well known for his political treatise Il Principe (translated as The Prince in English).
