Чезаре Борджиа: Как незаконный сын кардинала едва не покорил Италию

Cesare Borgia—the illegitimate son of a pope, the cardinal who took off his cassock, the commander who conquered Romagna, and the man who inspired Machiavelli's The Prince. His name has been spoken with caution for five centuries. But who was he really? In this video, you'll learn about Cesare's birth and upbringing at the papal court, how he renounced his cardinalate and became Duke of Valentinois, the conquest of Romagna and the famous trap at Sinigaglia, the death of Pope Alexander VI's father and the destruction of all that had been built, his years of imprisonment, his escape from La Mota Castle, and his death in Viana at the age of thirty-one. And also about his sister Lucrezia, Machiavelli, who observed him personally, and how the Borgia legend differs from the historical truth. #CesareBorgia #Borgia #HistoryOfItaly #MiddleAges #Renaissance #MachiavelliThePrince #LucreziaBorgia #AlexanderVI #HistoryOfEurope #Papacy #Italy15thCentury #Sinigaglia #Romagna #CardinalBorgia
