Subject
"Savonarola was active in Renaissance Florence and was known for his religious prophecies and abhorrence of secular arts and culture. His works called for the Christian faith to be revered with renewed respect and intensified practice, the present volume being no exception. Savonarola called for reform in light of the corruption of the Roman Church and papacy, and commanded his followers to return to Christian doctrine and live a simple, puritanical life away from the excesses of Rome." (Sokol Books).
