After Machiavelli is an examination of the triangular relationship of "re-writing"--a dynamic process encompassing both creative newness and awareness of historical profundity"--the "hermeneutic attitude:' and Machiavelli's poiesis. Specifically, it addresses four questions: First, to what degree can we speak of intersection (interaction) among this triad? Second, what common ground do all three actually share? Third, in what particular manner do the act of "re-writing" and the "hermeneutic attitude" manifest themselves in the writings of Niccoli Machiavelli? And last, what bearing does this have on the reader, heir to Machiavelli's literary legacy?Godorecci, Barbara is the author of 'After Machiavelli Re-Writing" and the "Hermeneutic Attitude' with ISBN 9781557530455 and ISBN 1557530459.
