Sample QuestionNicolau Maquiavel (1.469 - 1527) assim se expressara em sua obra O Príncipe: “(...) O mesmo acontece com a fortuna, que demonstra sua força onde não encontra uma virtú (virtude) ordenada, pronta para resistir-lhe e volta seu ímpeto [impulso; força] para onde sabe que não foram erguidos diques ou barreiras para contê-las. Se considerares a Itália, que é sede e origem dessas alterações, verás que ela é um campo sem diques e sem qualquer defesa; caso ela fosse convenientemente ordenada pela virtú, como a Alemanha, a Espanha e a França, ou esta cheia não teria causado as grandes mudanças que ocorrem, ou estas nem sequer teriam acontecido.” (MAQUIAVEL, N. O Príncipe. São Paulo: Abril Cultural, 1973 – p. 109.)Sobre o conceito de Virtú, peça chave para se entender as ações de um governante (ou príncipe), CONSIDERE as assertivas abaixo:I – A virtú é a qualidade dos oportunistas, que agem guiados pelo instinto natural e irracional do egoísmo e almejam, exclusivamente, sua vantagem pessoal.II – O homem de virtú é antes de tudo um sábio, é aquele que conhece as circunstâncias do momento oferecido pela fortuna e age seguro do seu êxito.III – Mais do que todos os homens, o príncipe tem de ser um homem de virtú, capaz de conhecer as circunstâncias e utilizá-la a seu favor.IV – Partidário da teoria do direito divino, Maquiavel vê o príncipe como um predestinado e a virtú como algo que não depende dos fatores históricos.ASSINALE a ÚNICA alternativa que contém as assertivas verdadeiras:
