Biography
Italian renaissance woman who was 12 years old when her dad became Pope Alexander VI. Raised as a servant, she was dealt as a sexual pawn in her dad's political machinations. Before age 22, three engagements for her were contracted and broken, and three marriages to princes were agreed upon. Her first marriage at age 13 was annulled. Her second husband was murdered by her brother Cesare in 1498. In 1501, she was married to the Duke Alfonso of Ferrara. When her dad died two years later, it freed her to live her own life. Borgia made her court a salon of the arts; it was a brilliant center for letters and culture and played a highly instrumental role in the Renaissance.
Died on 6/24/1519 OS, Ferrari, Italy.

Source Notes
LMR quotes Sabatini, "The Life of Cesare Borgia," p.22, (April 19, 1479 OS.) Gregovorious gave 4/27/1480 NS, but Sabatini denied this, stating, "documents in hand." Time spec. by LMR.
(Penfield quotes a biog. by Bellonci as, "around noon." That biog. writes on p.20, "She was born in Subiaco in 4/1480" with no date or time. PC gave 11:00 AM, "from an old source")
(The Catholic Enclopedia gives Apr 18, 1480, Rome.)
