Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'In the Pillory: The Tale of the Borgia Pope' is a biography and historical analysis of Pope Alexander VI, head of the Catholic Church and ruler of the Papal States from 11 August 1492 until his death in 1503. Alexander is considered one of the most controversial of the Renaissance popes, partly because he acknowledged fathering several children by his mistresses. As a result, his Italianized Valencian surname, Borgia, became a byword for libertinism and nepotism, which are traditionally considered as characterizing his pontificate.

Download or read book The Borgias and Their Enemies written by Christopher Hibbert and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2008 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major biography of the Borgias in thirty years, Christopher Hibbert's latest history brings the family and the world they lived in--the glittering Rome of the Italian Renaissance--to life. The name Borgia is synonymous with the corruption, nepotism, and greed that were rife in Renaissance Italy. The powerful, voracious Rodrigo Borgia, better known to history as Pope Alexander VI, was the central figure of the dynasty. Two of his seven papal offspring also rose to power and fame--Lucrezia Borgia, his daughter, whose husband was famously murdered by her brother, and that brother, Cesare, who served as the model for Niccolo Machiavelli's "The Prince." Notorious for seizing power, wealth, land, and titles through bribery, marriage, and murder, the dynasty's dramatic rise from its Spanish roots to its occupation of the highest position in Renaissance society forms a gripping tale. Erudite, witty, and always insightful, Hibbert removes the layers of myth around the Borgia family and creates a portrait alive with his superb sense of character and place.

Download or read book Cesare Borgia written by Sarah Bradford and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2011-07-18 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BORGIAS, NOW A MAJOR TV DRAMA STARRING JEREMY IRONS 'Either Caesar or nothing' was the motto of Cesare Borgia, whose name has long been synonymous with evil. Almost five centuries have passed since his death, yet his reputation still casts a sinister shadow. He stands accused of treachery, cruelty, rape, incest and, especially, murder - assassination by poison, the deadly white powder concealed in the jewelled ring, or by the midnight band of bravos lurking in the alleys of Renaissance Rome. This classic book by acclaimed historian and biographer Sarah Bradford (author of Lucrezia Borgia and Diana), is the drama of a man of exceptional gifts and a driving lust for power. Cesare Borgia dared fortune for the highest goals and when fate turned against him he fell like Lucifer. Set against the brilliant backcloth of High Renaissance Italy, his life had the perfect proportions of a Greek tragedy.

Download or read book The Borgia Family written by Jennifer Mara DeSilva and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-11 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Borgia Family: Rumor and Representation explores the historical and cultural structures that underpin the early modern Borgia family, their notoriety, and persistence and reinvention in the popular imagination. The book balances studies focusing on early modern observations of the Borgias and studies deconstructing later incarnations on the stage, on the page, on the street, and on the screen. It reveals how contemporary observers, later authors and artists, and generations of historians reinforced and perpetuated both rumor and reputation, ultimately contributing to the Borgia Black Legend and its representations. Focused on the deeds and posthumous reputations of Pope Alexander VI and his children, Cesare and Lucrezia Borgia, the volume charts the choices made by the family and contextualizes them amid contemporary expectations and reactions. Extending beyond their deaths, it also investigates how the Borgias became emblems of anti-Catholic and anti-Spanish criticism in the later early modern period and their residing reputation as the best and worst of the Renaissance. Exploring a spectrum of traditional and modern media, The Borgia Family contextualizes both Borgia deeds and their modern representations to analyze the family’s continuing history and meaning in the twenty-first century. It will be of great interest to researchers and students working on interdisciplinary aspects of the Renaissance and early modern Italy.
Download or read book Lucr ce et les Borgia written by Geneviève Chastenet and published by JC Lattès. This book was released on 2011-09-07 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rivalités, crimes, trahisons, plaisirs raffinés, soif de pouvoir et amours innombrables, l’histoire sulfureuse de la famille Borgia a fait couler beaucoup d’encre. Vérités et calomnies dressent d’elle un portrait terrible : Rodrigo Borgia, le futur pape Alexandre VI, est en bonne place dans l’Histoire des guerres d’Italie de Guichardin ; César Borgia est le modèle du Prince de Machiavel ; la splendide Lucrèce, pour sa part, doit à Victor Hugo un parfum de scandale encore tenace aujourd’hui. Si l’époque est à la somptuosité des fêtes, au fleurissement artistique et littéraire, c’est aussi un temps de barbarie où l’on règle ses comptes à coups de poignard et de poison. Enfant chérie d’Alexandre VI, Lucrèce fut surtout un objet de pouvoir entre les mains de son frère, César, qui fit assassiner son premier amour et étrangler son deuxième époux. Si Bembo, l’Arioste, ou encore le Titien célébrèrent sa beauté et son sens politique, Lucrèce dut affronter, en véritable héroïne shakespearienne, les démons d’une famille hors du commun. Geneviève Chastenet nous plonge dans un univers chatoyant tissé de passions violentes et d’ambitions démesurées, avec un regard constant sur les textes de l’époque. D’une biographie complète et fouillée, elle tire une magnifique fresque aux accents romanesques.
