virtu puhekieltä Especially in the writings of Machiavelli (1469–1527): excellence; moral virtue; honor; power.
1976, (w); James B. Atkinson, transl., (w) The Library of Liberal Arts; LLA-172, Indianapolis, Ind.: (w), Special:BookSources/9780672515422 ISBN 978-0-672-51542-2; reprinted as Indianapolis, Ind.: (w), 2008, Special:BookSources/9780872209206 ISBN 978-0-87220-920-6, pages 69–70:

All these connotations, even the positive and moral ones, are within the range of significations Machiavelli wants us to hear in “virtù.” For him the word suggests a kind of flexibility that can initiate effective, efficient, and energetic action based on a courageous assertion of the will and an ability to execute the products of one's own calculations. Such calculations are a significant adjunct to his ideas about virtù: they outline what might be called an internal or mental virtù.
(quote-book)|year=1996|pages=6–7|isbn=978-0-226-50368-4|passage=What is one to make of this? Machiavelli seems to deplore the need for a prince to be evil, and in the next breath to relish the fact. He alternately shocks his readers and provides relief from the very shocks he administers: Agathocles has virtù but cannot be said to have virtù. It is not enough to say that he uses the word in several “senses”; he uses it in two contradictory senses as to whether it includes or excludes evil deeds.
(quote-book)|year=2000|page=175|isbn=978-0-521-59752-4|passage=Honor and glory are for w:Niccolò Machiavelli|Niccolò Machiavelli closely tied to virtù, "virtue." The Latin virtus, from which the Tuscan/Italian term is derived, has its root in vir, man. Virtù refers to those things especially characteristic of man, the qualities that make us human. To oversimplify, Machiavelli uses virtù to refer both to “Christian” moral virtues, the conventional universalistic values embodied in the Golden Rule, and to a set of more particularistic classical virtues centered on honor. Together they comprise Machiavelli's account of the most noble and distinctive human excellences, achievements, and aspirations.
puhekieltä Knowledge of the fine arts.
(quote-book) Thoſe young Gentlemen of our Times, who have the ſame Ambition to be diſtinguiſhed for Parts. Wit certainly they have nothing to do with. To give them their Due, they ſoar a Step higher than their Predeceſſors, and may be called Men of Wiſdom and Vertù (take heed you do not read Virtue).
puhekieltä objet d'art|Objets d'art collectively.

Now, when with royal Tranquo I visited this wondrous whale, and saw the skull an altar, and the artificial smoke ascending from where the real jet had issued, I marvelled that the king should regard a chapel as an object of vertù.
