What is Machiavelli’s advice to a leader who is confronted with doing the virtuous thing or the thing that best assures survival

English
1 answer:
MAXImum [283]3 years ago
8 0

Machiavelli's advice to a leader confronted with doing the virtuous thing is that, although virtuous acts are necessary for a ruler to be seen as generous, compassionate and honorable, those characteristics are only useful for a ruler to get to leadership. However, those attributes for a man who has achieved leadership are in fact dangerous, because generosity creates expectations on people that are not always possible to fulfill. Another problem is that a kind and emphatic leader won't be able to mantain people in control, therefore, authoritarism is a useful tool to achieve good lidership. A leader is required to be "seen as generous" rather than be generous, and make difficult choices, which most of the times, means that a ruler has to be bad to stay in power. Following this line of thought, one of his most famous maxims is "it's much safer to be feared than loved" which means that at the end, the only way to assures a leader continuity in power is to be a cruel leader without people noticing it.

The participants listen to classical or instrumental music in a quiet room
Lena [83]

This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.  

Read the text.

Did you know that you can manage stress and cure an illness with music? In some universities in the

United Kingdom (UK), professors offer their students the opportunity to lower their stress level by

listening to music or learning to play an instrument. It Works effectively because people who relax with

music before or after any activity feel better and they study happily. All the courses start in a quiet

environment. Participants listen to classical or instrumental music in a quiet room. Then, a lovely voice

says: “Breathe, and feel the music in your heart.” After this short meditation, students go to their

different classes; for example, guitar, piano lessons, or hip-hop. They learn about instruments and

music theory. Finally, students have the opportunity to compose songs and play in a band. As

Nietzsche said: “Without music, life would be a mistake.”

The participants listen to classical or instrumental music in a quiet room

How do you feel when you listen to music? Write about another cultural

expression that you enjoy and describe it

Answer:

Music not only helps me relax before and after studying but, even while studying, some instrumental music in the background helps me to better my concentration.

Explanation:

I also enjoy singing. Not only it allows me to relax between lessons, but it´s also a great way to vent frustrations, as choosing songs with lyrics that make me feel empowered gives me the impulse I need to keep working.
