The Tragedies of the Medici
Excerpt
When Alexandre Dumas wrote his Crimes of the Borgias—and other
“Crimes”—he fully intended to compile a companion volume, treating of
episodes in the great family of the Medici. With this project in view,
he collected much material, and actually published, tentatively, two
interesting brochures: Une Année à Florence—in 1841, and Les
Galeries de Florence—in 1842.
