Resumen
Leo Strauss identificó en Maquiavelo al arquitecto del proyecto moderno, al pensadorque delinea por primera vez la posibilidad de la autonomía de un campo de lo políticoque, cerrado sobre sí mismo, abandona la posibilidad de una orientación hacia un biende orden trascendente. Su figura, por lo tanto, ocupa en la obra straussiana un lugarsingular, puesto que en ella Strauss situará el punto de quiebre entre antiguos ymodernos. Maquiavelo es, por ello, la figura clave en la querella entre antiguos ymodernos que Strauss declara querer reabrir, y el trabajo sobre su obra, sostendremos,supone atacar el corazón de este problema. Podríamos decir, simplemente, que laquerella entre antiguos y modernos es, esencialmente, una disputa sobre la innovaciónmaquiaveliana.En el presente texto buscaremos poner de manifiesto algunos de los rasgosfundamentales de esta lectura de Maquiavelo con la intención de observar bajo esta luzel proyecto filosófico político straussiano, poniendo énfasis en su diagnóstico acerca dela crisis de la modernidad. Sirviéndonos de este recorrido, buscaremos en la conclusiónesbozar algunas preguntas acerca de la lectura straussiana los ordini nuovimaquiavelianos, y de los sentidos (antiguo y moderno) de la politicidad de la filosofía.
Leo Strauss identified in Machiavelli the architect of the modern project, the thinker who delineates for the first time the possibility of the autonomy of a political field that, closed in on itself, abandons the possibility of an orientation towards a higher good. His figure, therefore, occupies a singular place in Strauss's work, since it is in him that Strauss will situate the point of break between "ancients" and "moderns". Machiavelli is, therefore, the name that opens the quarrel between ancients and moderns that Strauss declares he wishes to reopen. In the present text we will seek to highlight some of the fundamental features of this reading of Machiavelli with the intention of illuminating Strauss's political philosophical project in this light, concentrating on his characterization of modernity. To this end, we will focus on the only book devoted exclusively to Machiavelli (Thoughts on Machiavelli), while tracing the connections with the references to Machiavelli in the rest of his work. Using this approach, we will seek in the conclusion to outline some questions about the Straussian reading of Machiavelli's ordini nuovi, and about the meanings (ancient and modern) of the politicization of philosophy.
