How does Machiavelli’s The Prince exemplify, or refute, the ideals of the Italian Renaissance? In other words, how can we understand it as a record of its time? Choose ONE position. First, summarize the values and characteristics of the Italian Renaissance period (about 1 paragraph). Next, defend your position as to where The Prince stands within these values.
I do NOT want a simple summary of the ideas that The Prince expresses. I do NOT want any biographical or background information on Machiavelli as a man. Stay focused on this particular treatise and relating it to the greater themes of the Italian Renaissance.
Also,This is NOT a research paper! You should NOT be conducting research on your chosen topic. Rely on the primary source document itself and analysis to defend your position on that topic. Also, I am not asking you to judge the following works as good or bad works of art. Each is a widely accepted as a seminal work that exemplifies the period in which it was created. Focus on looking at these works as artifacts, or records, of their culture and times, i.e. PUT IT IN CONTEXT!
