Niccolo Machiavelli's The Prince on The Art of Power

Cary J. Nederman was born: May 6, 1957 in Pittsburgh, PA. Nederman is professor and director of graduate studies in the department of political science at Texas A&M University, College Station.  His research concentrates on the history of Western political thought, with a focus on Greek, Roman, and early European ideas up to the seventeenth century.  He illuminates the relationship between historical traditions and contemporary concerns. Nederman is presently pursuing several lines of research.  He plans to continue work on the early history of political economy that has already yielded several published articles.  He is also investigating the origins of European nationalism in late medieval and early modern political thought, a project that he hopes will lead to a book manuscript.  Moreover, he continues to work on topics in medieval rhetoric and the reception of classical political ideas in the Latin Middle Ages.
