br. Il suo papato durò solamente tre anni, ed è forse anche per questo che la figura di Callisto III è poco conosciuta. Eppure il cardinal Alfonso Borja è un personaggio tutto da scoprire: al centro di una profezia, salvatore dell'unità della Chiesa d'Occidente, tassello fondamentale sullo scacchiere catalano-aragonese, promotore di una crociata. Ha riabilitato la figura di Giovanna d'Arco. Il volume vuole dare legittima notorietà a questa figura, ricostruendo la vita e le gesta di un pontefice che fu ben più dello stereotipato fautore della venuta dei Borgia in Italia e zio del futuro Alessandro VI. Dopo un'introduzione sulle origini della famiglia Borgia, la narrazione prosegue, scandita negli anni di Alfonso da laico, vescovo, cardinale e papa. Lo scritto si conclude con un'analisi e un tentativo di risposta alla domanda: di cosa morì papa Callisto III?
