«La Roma de los Borgia» is the historical fresco by Guillaume Apollinaire, published by Valdemar in paperback (208 pages, in Spanish).
Apollinaire portrays the atmosphere of crime, cruelty and terror of the Italian Renaissance through the Borgia family: Pope Alexander VI, given over to pleasures in the Vatican; Cesare Borgia, ruthless executioner; and Lucrezia, famous for her poisons. This work describes the depravity of an era and the corrupt power of this dynasty.
This edition is number 48 of Valdemar's El Club Diógenes collection. Mauro Armiño translated the original work «La Rome des Borgia» (1913) from French.
Aimed at readers interested in Renaissance history, the Borgia family, and portraits of power and corruption.
Guillaume Apollinaire was a Polish-French poet, playwright, short story writer, novelist and art critic of Polish, Swiss and Italian descent.
