This paper explores the multifaceted relationship between Tommaso Campanella and Niccolò Machiavelli. Although the Dominican friar openly criticised Machiavelli as an atheist and anti-religious thinker, his work reflects many Machiavellian influences, particularly with regard to the dynamics of power and religion. The aim of this paper is to analyse how Campanella adapted Machiavellian ideas to his politico-religious vision by embedding them in his metaphysical system based on the wisdom, love, and power of being. We also examine his work Political Aphorisms, in which he criticises corrupt republics and proposes models based on social justice and harmony between religion and politics. Finally, we highlight his rejection of an autonomous politics divorced from moral and spiritual foundations, in contrast to Machiavelli’s pragmatic and secular vision, by advocating the integration of politics and religion as pillars of good government.
