While scholars continue to investigate interpretations of 'The Prince' in different contexts throughout history, from the Renaissance to the Risorgimento and Italian unification, other fruitful lines of research explore how Machiavelli's ideas about power and leadership can further our understanding of contemporary political circumstances. This book has brought together the most recent research on 'The Prince', with contributions from many of the leading scholars of Machiavelli, including Quentin Skinner, Harvey Mansfield, Erica Benner, John McCormick, and Giovanni Giorgini. Organized into four sections, the book focuses first on Machiavelli's place in the history of political thought: Is he the last of the ancients or the creator of a new, distinctly modern conception of politics? And what might the answer to this question reveal about the impact of these disparate traditions on the founding of modern political philosophy? The second section contrasts current understandings of Machiavelli's view of virtues in 'The Prince'. The relationship between political leaders, popular power, and liberty is another perennial problem in studies of Machiavelli, and the third section develops several claims about that relationship. Finally, the fourth section explores the legacy of Machiavelli within the republican tradition of political thought and his relevance to enduring political issues. 600 10 $a Machiavelli, Niccolo, $d 1469-1527 $v Congresses. 600 10 $a Machiavelli, Niccolo, $d 1469-1527. $t Principe $v Congresses. 600 10 $a Machiavelli, Niccolo, $d 1469-1527 $x Influence $v Congresses. 650 0 $a Republics $x Philosophy $v Congresses. 650 0 $a Political science $x Philosophy $v Congresses. 700 1 $a Johnston, David, $d 1951- $e editor. 700 1 $a Urbinati, Nadia, $d 1955- $e editor. 700 1 $a Vergara, Camila $c (Political scientist), $e editor. 710 2 $a Italian Academy for Advanced Studies in America, $e host institution. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018013852.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190702015245.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=32138C0619C611E7BD0085CCDAD10320 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
