«Empresas políticas» is the political philosophy essay by Diego de Saavedra Fajardo, published by Planeta in paperback (681 pages, in Spanish).
Written in the seventeenth century for the education of Prince Baltasar Carlos, this treatise brings together one hundred empresas or emblems in which text and image combine to propose a Christian reason of state, far removed from Machiavellianism.
The 1988 edition, with introduction and notes by Francisco Javier Díez de Revenga, belongs to the Clásicos universales Planeta collection (no. 161, Autores hispánicos) and includes illustrations.
It is aimed at readers interested in the political thought of the Spanish Golden Age and in emblematic literature.
Diego de Saavedra Fajardo was a Spanish diplomat and man of letters.
