Die Borgia

The Borgias are often portrayed in a sensationalized way, but this book seems to dig deeper. I'm curious what motivated the author to approach this subject from a new angle.

The detailed portrayal made me question how much of their actions were driven by circumstance versus inherent vice. Was anyone else surprised by their complexity?

Historical accounts from this era are often biased or incomplete. I wonder what criteria the author used to select and interpret sources for this biography.
