Here's some background on Lucrezia Borgia: Lucrezia Borgia: the very name has become a slur. It conjures up images of unspeakable corruption in female form. It sends visions of a beautiful, heartless, rapacious, carnal, treacherous femme fatale dancing through the popular consciousness. Her reputation for foulness has achieved mythic proportions. A vague notion of legions of husbands and lovers being used and discarded in fatal fashion is the general impression. She is seen as the ultimate counterpart to her monstrous brother Cesare. Together with their father Pope Alexander VI, they seem to create a perfect triangle of dastardliness. Poisonings, stabbings, and garrottings are believed to be among the favorite pastimes of these three. This is the general image of Lucrezia Borgia that has prevailed since her own lifetime. However, as time has passed, scholars have re-examined her life in an attempt to ascertain how much of this is truth and how much is fiction. Lucrezia has emerged from this scholarship in the form of a pleasant, passive, characterless, shallow woman used as a political pawn by both her father and Cesare. In order to gain some insight into which, if either, of these views is the more correct, it is necessary to examine the major events of Lucrezia's life as they are known to us. It is also necessary to examine her relations with those important to her. Achieving some general idea of how Lucrezia gained her infamous reputation is also important.
