Summary
Timothy Snyder: On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century
"The term tyrant was defined long ago by Aristotle in Politics. Only a tyrant can be good or bad because he rules without any law. Only a tyrant is both a man and a politician, and all others are just functionaries." Žarko Puhovski "It is very brave of Snyder that he dared to write this work from the point of view of a political theorist, even though he deals with history." Čedomir Čupić The author of the book is a professor at Yale University and one of the leading American historians, Timothy Snyder. His books on the history of the Holocaust enjoy high recognition in the world.
