Couverture de The Borgias par Marion Johnson

Résumé

The name Borgia excites extreme revulsion, but Marion Johnson demonstrates that behind the gaudy Renaissance horrors, lie people of real talent and achievement and possessors, arguably, of moderate values. The legends of poisoning and incest thatsurrounded The Borgias have fired the imagination of playwrights, poets, painters, novelists and historians of all succeeding generations.
