Excerpt: Pope Alexander VI (Spanish: ), born Roderic Llançol i Borja (Spanish: ; 1 January 1431 ¿ August 1503) was Pope from 1492 until his death on 18 August 1503. He is one of the most controversial of the Renaissance popes, and his italianized surname - Borgia - became a byword for the debased standards of the Papacy of that era, most notoriously the Banquet of Chestnuts in 1501.
