Savonarola and the Renaissance of Conscious (1452-1498) is a non-fiction book written by Newell Dwight Hillis. The book explores the life and impact of Girolamo Savonarola, an Italian Dominican friar and preacher who lived during the Renaissance period. The author delves into Savonarola's religious, political, and social views and how they influenced the cultural and intellectual movement of the time. The book provides a detailed account of Savonarola's life, from his birth in Ferrara to his rise in Florence as a prominent religious figure. Hillis examines Savonarola's teachings, including his emphasis on morality, piety, and the rejection of worldly pleasures. The author also explores Savonarola's role in the political upheavals of Florence, including his opposition to the ruling Medici family and his support for a republic.Throughout the book, Hillis highlights the impact of Savonarola's ideas on the Renaissance period, including his influence on artists such as Botticelli and Michelangelo. The author also examines the role of Savonarola's preaching in the Bonfire of the Vanities, an event in which objects deemed sinful were burned in Florence's public square.Savonarola and the Renaissance of Conscious (1452-1498) is a well-researched and insightful book that provides a comprehensive look at the life and impact of Girolamo Savonarola. It is an excellent resource for anyone interested in Renaissance history, religious studies, or Italian culture.THIS 28 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Great Men as Prophets of a New Era, by Newell Dwight Hillis.
