Bellonci Maria

Summary

Maria Bellonci: Lucrezia Borgia

Renaissance beauty of extraordinary talents, devoted daughter of the manipulative Pope Alexander VI, sister who outlived four brothers, a woman who obtained the titles of Countess of Pesaro, Duchess of Biselli and Duchess of Ferrara by marriage, she was remembered in history, and even more in literature, as an unscrupulous poisoner, executioner careless people who would get in her way. This work shows us a completely different Lucrezia Borgia - a passionate woman who moves precariously through the political intrigues and unshakable ambitions of her father and brother. It evokes Lucretia's apparent power; while she briefly decided on questions of papal or Ferrara state, she had no power over life. After the short-lived happiness of married love, she was forced to bury her husband and leave her children. They bid on her like a slave, underestimated and slandered her, but in all this she preserved the nobility of spirit, which made her the muse of some of the greatest poets of the Renaissance.
