He was a member of the House of Malatesta and a minor player in the Italian Wars. He was the son of Roberto Malatesta, at the death of whom (1482) he was created captain general of the Republic of Venice. Four years later he was created knight by King Alfonso II of Naples. In 1495, hired by the Venetians, he took part in the Battle of Fornovo, and later besieged the French garrison Novara. Pandolfo's violence and murders gained him the hatred of his subjects: in 1497, a failed rape attempt on a young girl spurred a revolt in Rimini, which he could suppress only with Venetian intervention. He escaped another plot in 1498. Two years later, Cesare Borgia invaded Pandolfo's territories and Pope Alexander VI, Cesare's father, excommunicated him. Abandoned by his subjects, Pandolfo was compelled to give up Rimini for 2,900 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
