Jerome Savonarola: A Sketch is a book written by James Louis O'Neil in 1898. The book provides a detailed account of the life and times of Jerome Savonarola, a prominent Italian Dominican friar and preacher who lived during the late 15th century. Savonarola was known for his fiery sermons, which often criticized the excesses and corruption of the Catholic Church and the ruling elite in Florence. He also played a prominent role in the political and social upheavals that took place in Florence during his time, including the overthrow of the ruling Medici family and the establishment of a republic. O'Neil's book provides a comprehensive overview of Savonarola's life, from his early years as a monk to his rise to prominence as a preacher and reformer. The book also explores the controversies surrounding Savonarola's teachings and actions, including his condemnation of art and culture and his involvement in the infamous Bonfire of the Vanities. Overall, Jerome Savonarola: A Sketch is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church, the Renaissance, or the political and social upheavals of 15th century Italy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
