by Danny Chaplin (Author)
The history of possibly the most notorious dynasty in papal history is revealed in a new narrative from the author of "The Medici: Rise of a Parvenu Dynasty, 1360-1537", "Pietro Aretino: The First Modern", and "Sengoku Jidai. Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, and Ieyasu: Three Unifiers of Japan". Danny Chaplin serves up a fresh history of the Borgia which neither flinches from their grisly deeds nor seeks to paint an unduly "revisionist" picture of what is without question one of history's most infamous papal dynasties.The Borgia were that quintessential Renaissance phenomenon, a parvenu family which emerged from relative priestly obscurity to soar to the heights of political and pontifical power in the colourful Italy of the 1400s. Established on the backs of the careers of two popes, Calixtus III and Alexander VI, the family held court initially as princes of the Church and arbiters of European clerical politics. From the abstemious, crusading Pope Calixtus to the venal, sensual and nepotistic Pope Alexander (Rodrigo Borgia), this Spanish house from Valencia quickly established itself as one of Rome's major players.Later, Cesare Borgia, the model for Niccolò Machiavelli's prototypical Renaissance prince, would be recognised as a secular lord in his own right. As "Il duco Valentino" he would blaze a trail of destruction and conquest across the length and breadth of central Italy. The Borgia brokered deals and dynastic alliances with kings, princes, and dukes, often at the point of a sword. They appropriated Church lands for their own aggrandisement. They also walked a delicate tightrope between France and Spain, two emerging superpowers which sought to enact their great rivalry on the Italian Peninsula. Their murders, assassinations, and poisonings have by now become legendary in the annals of European history.Five centuries later, the names of Rodrigo Borgia, Cesare Borgia, Juan Borgia, and their much-slandered sister Lucrezia Borgia are synonymous with everything regarded as being at fault with the Renaissance papal establishment. But is the received wisdom concerning the Borgia entirely accurate or indeed warranted? Cinematic in scope, this meticulously-researched new history of the House of Borgia re-examines their lives and their legacy with uncompromising candidness in the context of late fifteenth-century Italian power politics.
