On Nov. 12th, at 7:30 pm EST, the LLC’s John Locke Program will host Nathan Tarcov for a lecture on Machiavelli’s Vision of Liberty. Prof. Tarcov teaches at the University of Chicago where he received the Quantrell Award for excellence in undergraduate teaching. He is a renowned political scientist who translated Machiavelli’s Discourses on Livy.

Prof. Tarcov has said that those attending may want to read Chapter V of Machiavelli’s Prince and as well as Discourses on Livy 1.16 and 2.2 (feel free to ignore the marginal notes). Reading is not required for attendance but may provide a useful primer.
