Description
The Borgias Power and Fortune By Paul Strathern Atlantic Books, 2020 The story of the Borgia family is often associated with sensational excesses, but it was also a pivotal moment in European history. This remarkable tale marks a decisive turning point in the continent's development. The Borgias' rise to power was built on a complex web of alliances, strategic marriages, and ruthless ambition. Their fortunes were forged in the treacherous landscape of 15th-century Italy, where politics and religion were inextricably linked. This book offers a nuanced exploration of the Borgia dynasty's meteoric ascent and its lasting impact on European society. With meticulous research and engaging prose, Paul Strathern sheds light on the intricate dynamics that drove this infamous family to the heights of power and ultimately to their downfall.
