The Three Borgia Popes: Black Chronicle of the Vatican (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798283887562)

The Three Borgia Popes: Black Chronicle of the Vatican It is a journey to the darkest heart of ecclesiastical power, told through the lives of three popes who shared blood and ambition: Chalytus III, Alexander VI and Innocent X. Throughout more than three hundred pages structured into ten chapters and one hundred subchapters, this work reveals how the Borgia surname not only reached the peak of sacred power, but perverted it, transformed it and turned it into the scene of a drama that still resonates in history.

Among councils disguised as theaters, purchased conclaves, poisons served in chalices and banquets turned into orgies, the reader will find a story of institutional corruption, family intrigues, sex as diplomatic currency and death as a tool of government. From the rise of the clan from Aragon to its symbolic legacy in modern politics, the book reconstructs both the documented facts and the legends that, woven between enemies and artists, forged the immortal image of the Borgias.

This work does not seek to redeem or condemn: it seeks understand why power, when it becomes the ultimate goal, drags with it everything human-and sacred-it touches.
