Joining me this week is Katharine Fellows, a DPhil candidate in History at St Peter’s College, Oxford. Katharine will be shedding light on the infamous House of Borgia, with a particular focus on Rodrigo Borgia, who rose to power as Pope Alexander VI. We'll explore his controversial papacy, the political intrigue that surrounded his rule, and the lasting legacy of the Borgia family in Renaissance Europe. From accusations of corruption to their influence on art, politics, and the Church, this episode unravels one of history’s most notorious dynasties.
