Cesare
Borgia
by Sarah Bradford
Book Description Accusations of treachery, rape, incest, and
murder: almost five centuries have passed since Cesare Borgia's death,
and his reputation still casts a sinister shadow. Yet the real man was
a mesmerizing figure who inspired Machiavelli's classic The Prince. During
the brief space of time when he occupied the stage, he shocked and stunned
his contemporaries with his lofty ambitions and daring, becoming the most
feared, hated, and envied man of his day. By 31 he was dead: his story
assumes the proportions of Greek tragedy.

Florence
and the Medici
by J.R. Hale
Book Description The enduring fascination of the Medici springs
from their ability--as individuals and as a family--to control the government
of Florence, first as a quasi-democracy and finally through inheritance.
Based on the latest research, this perceptive study, by one of the finest
Renaissance scholars of the day, reveals the causes and the nature of the
Medicis' power of patronage from the early 15th-century through the early
18th. "...probing, sharp-eyed, utterly unsentimental...some of the most
revealing insights come...in a chapter about the growth of the Medici legend.."--Roy
Foster.
