Historical “particulare”(particular) of Guicciardini

Francesco Guicciardini(1483-1540) an Italian historical man has descripted history of Italy above all during 16th century, and he has described some character of human gender, that we can ascertain today to everybody; an important notation about this character is the particular, what is? Ibn conformity of think of Guicciardini the particular, in Italian language of 16th century is “particulare” is personal interest or propriety; in fact Francesco has thought that to defense of cities is necessary soldiers and armies, but the first are ready to betray in front of a best offer, this is “particulare”, honor is absolutely secondary, but the chief can foresee, to men and soldiers, that other chief could take all proprieties going to can sequestered and given to his men; then he can say that you aren’t defend me but your interest, your proprieties, your money, your richness; thereupon they are very ready to defend city and their proprieties. Comments are: “It is normal, you haven’t discovery that with cloudy sky are almost always it’s rain”. It’s normal I know perfectly it, but that it method has been used  during 7th century in Byzantium by imperator Heraclius(610-641 b.Ch) it is to me very new; he has created the στρατιώτικα κτηματα has been fields that imperator given to farmers, or soldiers that were become farmers, so that they could defend their proprieties through armies; same strategy that Rome used to barbarian populations because the German people has been transferred in different land and region of Roman empire to defend borderlines. This strategy has been ruinous because German people just was in empire because they has transferred their people in Rome or other cities of empire, but they has accessed peacefully and in fact they were servants or waiters in the villas of Rome or rich families; but I want remark that the particular is present in every moment of history, and Guicciardini has given the name to a habit and human instinct; but this human behavior is present from centuries, because Roman empire is before of Byzantium and Guicciardini is after Byzantium; therefore it’s human gender and human habit, Francesco has told it and he has written that history and other, in other eras has made.
