Download or read book A Crown of Fire written by Pierre Van Paassen and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life of Savonarola and its place in the history of Italy and the Church has been subject to many interpretations. In this book Pierre van Paassen gives it the most balanced, entertaining, and factual treatment yet. Savonarola and Firenze (Florence) however are so inextricably bound together that the two must be discussed at one and the same time. Florence was at the height of her glory in the most brilliant phase of the Renaissance and herein the splendor and picturesqueness of that whole epoch is brought vividly to life. Mr. van Paassen traces Savonarola’s youth and his teenage love for a girl in Ferrara, his hometown, and then his sudden decision (quite like Loyola’s) to enter the Church. Following his novitiate Savonarola was called to Florence and immortality by Lorenzo the Magnificent. In this most exciting period of history the author traces his contacts with Lorenzo and the opposition, with the artists, Botticelli and Michelangelo, with Machiavelli, with the great Pope, Alexander VI, with Lucrezia, Cesare and the Sforza family. There is Savonarola’s conversion of the whole city of Florence with the entire population walking in a procession of penitence. When the king of France invaded Italy Savonarola went out to meet him and thus saved the city while the rest of the country was ravaged by war. Mr. van Paassen examines Savonarola’s ideas on democracy and freedom, on everyday questions, and his strange predictions and prophesies which came to be fulfilled. And finally, the accusation of heresy, the trial and torture, and the burning at the stake. Most books on Savonarola used the monk’s career and death to belabor Pope Alexander VI and the Borgia family. Not so here: rather Mr. van Paassen’s theme is that had Savonarola’s counsel been heeded the Reformation would have taken place within, rather than outside, the Church.
Download or read book Life and Times of Girolamo Savonarola Classic Reprint written by Pasquale Villari and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-24 with total page 890 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Times of Girolamo Savonarola Meanwhile I too had collected a considerable stock of fresh documents and of Savonarola's in edited writings. I had caused an exact copy to be made of his marginal notes in the Bible in the Florence National Library, and on the sheets he had added to it, and these were found to comprise several unpublished tractates and sermons. A precious autograph codex, now in the Museum Of St. Mark in Florence, supplied me with several summaries of other unknown discourses, throwing much light on Savonarola's first years in Florence, during the reign of Lorenzo the Magnificent. Numerous un published ambassadorial despatches add to our know ledge of the iniquitous plots organized against him in various quarters. In a similar way much was gleaned from other unpublished documents and compositions of Savonarola which will be quoted in due course.

Download or read book Girolamo Savonarola written by Samantha Morris and published by Madeglobal Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born on 21 September 1452, the very same year that Leonardo Da Vinci was born, Girolamo Savonarola: The Renaissance Preacher tells the story of a man who believed so wholeheartedly in God and the message that He was giving, that he gave his life for it. The book is an introduction to the life and times of this infamous preacher, a man who was witness to the dramatic downfall of the Medici dynasty in fifteenth-century Florence, who instigated some of the most dramatic events in Florentine history and whose death is still commemorated today. ------------ 'Thoroughly well researched and enthusiastically written. It is clear that Samantha Morris has great care for her subject and this is reflected in the quality of this work. A great introduction to Florentine politics in the late 15th century and the life of one of the most infamous individuals of the Renaissance'. - Katharine Fellows, St Peter's College, University of Oxford AUTHOR INTERVIEW What makes the medieval history of Florence special? Florence, unlike the majority of Italy's city states during the Renaissance, was a Republic, but run by the Medici family who were kings in all but name. It was also the city that birthed the Renaissance, a city full of political intrigue, violence, art and religion. Who was Savonarola? Girolamo Savonarola was a Dominican friar who badly wanted to see Church reform not only within Florence but throughout the World. Unfortunately for Savonarola, despite his best intentions, the city turned against him and his hard lined ways, just as they had with the Medici family. Why should readers give your non-fiction history books a try? My books offer a well researched historical introduction to some of the most fascinating periods in both Italian and World history - a stepping stone, if you will, into the torrid history of the Renaissance. Within them you get to meet and learn about, personalities who lived and worked in this era - sex, violence, murder and religious fervour is only a little of what you will find within.
Download or read book Savonarola written by Donald Weinstein and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Girolamo Savonarola, the fifteenth-century doom-saying friar, embraced the revolution of the Florentine republic and prophesied that it would become the center of a New Age of Christian renewal and world domination. This new biography, the culmination of many decades of study, presents an original interpretation of Savonarola's prophetic career and a highly nuanced assessment of his vision and motivations. Weinstein sorts out the multiple strands that connect Savonarola to his time and place, following him from his youthful rejection of a world he regarded as corrupt, to his engagement with that world to save it from itself, to his shattering confession—an admission that he had invented his prophesies and faked his visions. Was his confession sincere? A forgery circulated by his inquisitors? Or an attempt to escape bone-breaking torture? Weinstein offers a highly innovative analysis of the testimony to provide the first truly satisfying account of Savonarola and his fate as a failed prophet.
