BORGIA, CESARE, DUC DE VALENTINOIS

Additional reading The standard biography is still W.H. Woodward, Cesare Borgia (1913). More recent but less useful are C.E. Yriarte, Cesare Borgia (Eng. trans. 1947); C.M.L. Beuf, Cesare Borgia: The Machiavellian Prince (1942); and Sarah Bradford, Cesare Borgia, His Life and His Times (1976). On the background of the period and the family, see L. Collison-Morley, The Story of the Borgias (1932); and M.E. Mallett, The Borgias (1969), with the most complete bibliography.
