Description
The book ""Life and Times of Girolamo Savonarola V1"" by Pasquale Villari is a comprehensive biography of the famous Italian Dominican friar and preacher, Girolamo Savonarola. The book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume covering the early life and rise to power of Savonarola, and the second volume focusing on his downfall and eventual execution.Villari's biography provides a detailed account of Savonarola's life, from his birth in Ferrara in 1452 to his execution in Florence in 1498. The author explores Savonarola's early years as a Dominican friar, his growing reputation as a preacher, and his eventual arrival in Florence, where he quickly gained a following among the city's citizens.The book delves into Savonarola's controversial teachings, which emphasized the need for moral reform and the rejection of worldly pleasures. Villari also examines Savonarola's political influence, particularly his role in the downfall of the ruling Medici family and his brief tenure as the leader of Florence.Throughout the book, Villari provides a vivid picture of life in Renaissance Italy, with its political intrigue, religious fervor, and artistic achievements. The author draws on a wealth of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and official documents, to bring Savonarola and his times to life.Overall, ""Life and Times of Girolamo Savonarola V1"" is a fascinating and informative biography that sheds light on one of the most influential figures of the Renaissance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
