Lucrezia Borgia (from a TV series)
On behalf of Lucrezia Borgia everything has been said and the opposite of everything.
From time to time victim or executioner, inveterate poisoner or unfortunate woman in love, devoted or incestuous daughter and sister, vain and intriguing or intelligent and loving woman, actually on the true nature of the direct descendant of Pope Alexander VI , five centuries after the events that saw her involved, she still reigns absolute uncertainty ( see https://www.pilloledistoria.it/8517/storia-moderna/la-leggenda-nera-di-lucrezia-borgia-in-un-documentario-con-video).
Probably, unless new testimonies and revealing documents come out, the truth about the nature and the work of this girl that the legend wants beautiful and vicious, will remain forever locked within the walls of the great palaces in which she lived, loved, ruled and died.
Although the latest historiographical trend is that of a re-evaluation of the character, Voyager, the television program conducted by Roberto Giacobbo , has recently given us a rather classic and traditional portrait of her, that of a woman who is anything but inexperienced and therefore perfectly aware and responsible for the occurrence of dark plots that involved her bulky family.
The video (from youtube.com) is interesting and the historical facts well reconstructed:good vision.
