Na de Pazzi samenzwering had Lorenzo de Medici de macht strakker in handen dan ooit te voren, en niets wees erop dat de Medici's die macht snel kwijt zouden raken. Toch gebeurde dat. Na het overlijden van Lorenzo kreeg zijn zoon Piero het voor het zeggen, en binnen enkele jaren waren de Medici's de stad uitgegooid. Hier zijn veel redenen voor, maar een cruciale rol hierin was weggelegd voor de monnik Girolamo Savonarola. In deze laatste aflevering over de Medici's zal verteld worden hoe de Medici's tijdelijk, met de nadruk op tijdelijk, hun positie in Florence kwijtraakten.

Girolamo Savonarola, frate domenicano, combatté la corruzione ecclesiastica, sfidò Alessandro VI e fu arso vivo a Firenze il 23 maggio 1498.
Bücher, Kosmetik, Spielkarten, Kunstwerke und noch mehr brannten am 7. Februar 1497 in Florenz. Es war das erste «Fegefeuer der Eitelkeiten». Der Mönch Girolamo Savonarola wollte damit alles zerstören, was er für unmoralisch hielt.

“Have no fear of them ... Rather fear Him.” A healthy and holy fear of God acknowledges His holiness and justice, while resting in His grace and forgiveness. Gospel fear is a reverent awe and respect for God, rooted in the majesty of Christ's person and work as revealed in the gospel. Nowhere is an elevated spirit of gospel fear more intensely represented than in the last pre-Reformation reformer, the martyr, Girolamo Savonarola. His heart was aflame for the glory of God and the good of man in the very birthplace of the Renaissance. With colossal conviction and an indefatigable devotion, he warned people to flee to Christ from the wrath of God, to turn to God from idols of man's making. Against unprecedented corruptions, Savonarola unleashed sacred Scripture, calling for regeneration in Christ's church. This short devotional message looks at the words of our Lord in Matthew 10 and through its lens considers the life and ministry of Savonarola. The aim of this message is to make much of Christ in the present, to stir our own souls in deepening devotion, and to guard from being desensitized by the world.
Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli, nacido el 3 de mayo de 1469, fue un filósofo político, escritor, diplomático, músico, dramaturgo y funcionario de la República de Florencia. Hoy en día, Maquiavelo es considerado uno de los principales fundadores de la ciencia política moderna. En junio de 1498, después del derrocamiento y ejecución de Girolamo Savonarola, el Gran Consejo eligió a Maquiavelo como Secretario de la Segunda Cancillería de la República de Florencia. Dr. John Dee afirma en El mago que Maquiavelo es un maestro de la mentira. Nereus es un personaje que los antiguos griegos lo adoraban como el Anciano del Mar original, lo llama el Hacedor de Rey en El Nigromante. Aten es un anciano poderoso y ex rey de Danu Talis. Es hijo de Bastet y Amenhotep, hermano de Anubis y padre de Tutankhamon. Fue su maestro, dijo de él que era una valiosa herramienta en varias ocasiones. Maquiavelo también escribió un libro famoso conocido como El príncipe. Maquiavelo era un hombre alto de piel bronceada y fríos ojos grises. Maquiavelo mantenía su cabello blanco como la nieve corto y siempre había estado bien afeitado, y sus gustos tendían hacia un estilo más elegante. Su traje negro y su camisa de seda blanca estaban claramente hechos a la medida, y su corbata carmesí oscuro estaba tejida con hilos de oro puro. Evaluemos el planteamiento…

For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcast Ali catches up with writer Denise Mina to talk about her new historical novel 'Three Fires', which is published by Polygon Books. Following on from the equally compelling 'Rizzio', 'Three Fires' takes a historical figure and uses significant events from the past to comment and question the present day. Denise talks about the central, complex, character of Girolamo Savonarola and how his ideas, and the resulting actions and following he inspired, are still felt today. She also talks about her approach to writing historical fiction, the satisfaction in writing complicated individuals, the joy of research, bringing the past and the present together, and so much more. The two also talk about Denise's new Philip Marlowe novel 'The Second Murderer', (which is published by Harvill Secker), and the challenges in writing someone else's character. It's a warm and informative conversation with one of Scotland's finest and favourite writers, and it was such a pleasure to talk to Denise about her latest work.

Summer, 1538.A night patrol finds a wealthy merchant hanged and set ablaze in the city's main square. More than mere murder, this killing is intended to put the fear of God into Florence. Forty years earlier, puritanical monk Girolamo Savonarola was executed the same way. Does this new killing mean his fanatical disciples are reviving the monk's regime of holy terror?Cesare Aldo is busy hunting thieves in the Tuscan countryside, leaving Constable Carlo Strocchi to investigate the killing. When another merchant is burned alive in public, the rich start fleeing to their country estates. But the Tuscan hills can also be dangerous.Growing religious fervour and a scorching heatwave drives the city ever closer to madness. Meanwhile, someone is stalking those powerful men who forged lifelong bonds in the dark days of Savonarola.Unless Aldo and Strocchi work together, all of Florence will be consumed by an inferno of death and destruction.DV BISHOP is the pseudonym of award-winning writer David Bishop. His love for the city of Florence and the Renaissance period meant there could be only one setting for his crime fiction. The first book in the Cesare Aldo series, City of Vengeance, won the Pitch Perfect competition at the Bloody Scotland crime writing festival and the NZ Booklovers Award for Best Adult Fiction Book. It was also shortlisted for the Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize. Bishop was awarded a Robert Louis Stevenson Fellowship while writing that novel.

Navigating politico-religious disagreements in a spirit of civility is nigh-on impossible in eras in which the meaning of civility itself is contested. How do we speak to each other civilly in a time of incivility? Read by Leighton Pugh. Image description: Girolamo Savonarola's execution on the Piazza della Signoria in Florence in 1498.

Controversial friar Girolamo Savonarola supervised the mass destruction of Renaissance art, literature and other priceless items he deemed as ‘fripperies' on 7th February, 1497 - an event that became known as ‘The Bonfire of the Vanities'. The Dominican cleric - eventually ex-communicated by the Pope for calling the Catholic Church ‘a whore' - commandeered a large following of adolescents, who went door-to-door in Florence demanding items to be chucked on to the pyre. Ironically, Savonarola was ultimately executed the following year… by being chucked into a fire. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly ask whether Savonarola's objections to Renaissance-era portraiture had any legitimacy; explain how he leveraged his ‘prophecies' to give him greater control of the City; and consider why he selected Shrove Tuesday, of all days, to build his famous bonfire… Further Reading: ‘A big day in history: Florence's bonfire of the vanities' (HistoryExtra, 2012): https://www.historyextra.com/period/renaissance/a-big-day-in-history-florences-bonfire-of-the-vanities/ • ‘The friar who ignited the first bonfire of vanities in Florence' (The Washington Post, 2006): https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/entertainment/books/2006/04/02/the-friar-who-ignited-the-first-bonfire-of-vanities-in-florence-span-classbankheadthe-friar-who-ignited-the-first-bonfire-of-vanities-in-florence-span/f2de7781-44e6-4a86-a076-6d7f5b2e9854/ • ‘Who was Savonarola?'

El 7 de febrero de 1497, en Florencia, Italia, el monje Girolamo Savonarola ordenó quemar miles de piezas de arte en un intento por imponer una "reforma a las costumbres".
Girolamo Savonarola war ein Dominikanermönch, der in Ferrara und Bologna lebte, bevor er nach Florenz kam und sich mehr und mehr zu einem Verfechter strenger religiöser Regeln entwickelte.
Italian Friar and end times prophet who the world couldn't love.
The First person to take Amos' socio-ethical message seriously was the Dominican friar Girolamo Savonarola. During Lent in Florence, Italy, in 1496, Savonarola preached a series of hard-hitting sermons on Amos and Zechariah against what he felt were the political and religious sins of that city-state. These sermons led to his imprisonment and subsequent execution in 1498. More recent Martin Luther King Jr. in his amazing, world changing “I have a dream” speech quotes Amos 5:24 “Let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream.” This was the message that Amos was delivering to the people of Israel as well. He wanted them to know that their improper worship had led to improper treatment of others. He wanted to remind them that justice should roll out of them and that would cause righteousness to flow out to the other nations. Visit our Website: https://yourchurchfriends.rocks/
Beloved brothers and sisters, bask in the glory of God, humbly proclaiming the gospel to believers and unbelievers. Don't diminish the power of the gospel, but boast in it. Boast in our Savior and proclaim the gospel without reservation or discrimination. Girolamo Savonarola, an Italian forerunner of the Reformation, said that you can go to paradise if you want to, because your Savior, Christ, has gone there, but know that it is not by your own nature or by your own virtue that you will reach that place. Praise God for sending His Son to die so that we—Jews and Gentiles—might live!Thank you for listening to this episode of Declaring His Glory Among the Nations: Daily Scripture Meditations from Pastors Around the World.

Part 23 The Renaissance - Rebirth In the 14th and 15th centuries there was a great European revival of interest in the values of classical Greek and Roman literature, art, philosophy and politics. It started in Italy and spread throughout Europe. Scholars were called humanists as they moulded their life on the teachings of the great Greek and Roman classical literature. There was also an increase in other areas of life: scholastic freedom grew exponentially, Roman morality, paganism, the Greek New Testament and the study thereof, and many new universities throughout Europe were started. 1. Leading Spokesmen In amidst all this was the Church, which was continuing to change - and to the dismay of the Roman Catholic hierarchy, to the detriment of the established Church. Here are but 3 men – all of whom spoke brave words and lived brave lives! Girolamo Savonarola (1452-1498) - Italian preacher of reform and the hero of many early Protestants. He became a Dominican monk after studying humanism and medicine. He affected the masses by his preaching and transformed the lives of many intellectuals through his thinking. He showed the impurities and corruption of the Roman Catholic system and spoke against the exploitation of the poor. Savonarola was well known for speaking prophecies about civic glory and called for Christian renewal. Eventually Savonarola was excommunicated and executed for denouncing the Pope and the corrupt papal court. Here is one thing that Savonarola wrote: The Pope may err, and that in two ways, either because he is erroneously informed, or from malice. As to the latter cause we leave that to the judgment of God, and believe rather that he has been misinformed. In our own case I can prove that he has been falsely persuaded. Therefore any one who obstinately upholds the excommunication and affirms that I ought not to preach these doctrines is fighting against the kingdom of Christ, and supporting the kingdom of Satan, and is himself a heretic, and deserves to be excluded from the Christian community. John Colet (1466-1519) - a brilliant humanist at Oxford, and influenced Savonarola. He was enlightened and caused the epistles of Paul to live again in message. In 1512, as Dean of St. Paul's, he declared vicious and depraved lives of the church the worst heresy of all times which led to first reforming the bishops and it would spread to all. The church laws could not be enforced until the bishops became new men. Colet taught his students to keep the Bible and the Apostle's Creed. Here is a quote from his convocation sermon of 1512: “You are come together today, fathers and right wise men, to hold a council. In which what you will do and what matters you will handle, I do not yet know, but I wish that, at length, mindful of your name and profession, you would consider of the reformation of ecclesiastical affairs; for never was there more necessity and never did the state of the Church more need endeavors. For the Church – the spouse of Christ – which He wished to be without spot or wrinkle, is become foul and deformed.” Colet went on to conclude: “If, by chance, I should seem to have gone too far in this sermon—if I have said anything with too much warmth—forgive it me, and pardon a man speaking out of zeal, a man sorrowing for the ruin of the Church; and passing, by any foolishness of mine, consider the thing itself.” Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus (1467-1536) He was a student of John Colet and the greatest of all humanists. Professor of Divinity and Greek at Cambridge Uni. He aimed to reform Roman Catholic Church, from within and so didn't leave the church. As a result he was attacked by both the Roman Catholic Church and the Protestants. The Roman Catholic Church for heretical teaching, and by the Protestants for lacking courage. In 1516, he produced the Greek version of the New Testament because he wanted to make it understood by everyone. He was educated by Brethren of the Common Life, was ordained as a Priest in 1492 and laid the egg which Martin Luther later hatched. 2. Modern devotional movement. In Holland and Northern Europe, during this period, there was a renewed interest in a personal devotional life with God. One such group was the 'Brethren of the Common Life', who emphasised personal devotion, poverty, chastity and obedience in a semi-monastic lifestyle. Thomas a'Kempis (1380-1471). Thomas a' Kempis was born in Germany in 1380 to a blacksmith and a schoolmistress. In 1392, he started at school and while there encountered the devotional group, Brethren of the Common Life. From there, Thomas joined a monastery and became a prolific copyist and writer – copying by hand the Bible four times. His most noted work today though, .is the 'Imitation of Christ', still one of the most widely read devotional books, even though it is distinctly Roman Catholic in doctrine it is both scriptural and Christ-centred. The "Imitation of Christ" a devotional book divided into 4 parts. Part 1 - "Helpful Counsels of the Spiritual Life." Part 2 - "Directives for the Interior Life." Part 3 - "On Interior Consolation" Part 4 - "On the Blessed Sacrament" Here are some quotes from that book – ahead of its time in many ways! "At the Day of Judgement we shall not be asked what we have read, but what we have done." — The Imitation of Christ, Book I, Chapter 3 "For man proposes, but God disposes" — The Imitation of Christ, Book I, Chapter 19 "If, however, you seek Jesus in all things, you will surely find Him. " — The Imitation of Christ, Book 2, Chapter 7 You can download a copy of this book for free from CCEL: Tap or click here to save this as an audio mp3 file
We finally discuss the figure from the Heretics logo, Girolamo Savonarola, and look at why he was burned as a heretic despite being just the opposite in many ways. We also look at his role in setting the scene for Martin Luther.
Si os pensabais que esto sólo iba a tener tres entregas, estabais equivocados porque la historia de nuestros enemigos da para mucho, por desgracia. Hoy nos vamos a quedar en el Renacimiento, y más concretamente en la España de los Reyes Católicos, que eran tan católicos como homófobos, y en la Italia de la permisiva Florencia y la genocida Venecia. Nuevos nombres, además de Isabel y Fernando y Felipe II. También tenemos a Nicolás Aymeric, inquisidor general de Aragón, a San Bernardino de Siena (santo y promotor de genocidio homosexual) y al salvaje de Girolamo Savonarola, que probó de su propia medicina.

Piero de' Medici is gone, and a new rising star is a hotshot preacher named Girolamo Savonarola. Once an itinerant preacher and lecturer, Savonarola now finds himself hobnobbing with King Charles VIII of France and even having a say in Florence's newly rebuilt, Medici-free republic.

This is Father Jared Cramer from St. John's Episcopal Church in Grand Haven, Michigan, here with today's edition of Christian Mythbusters, a regular segment I offer to counter some common misconceptions about the Christian faith. In last week's edition of Christian Mythbusters, I talked about the dangers fascism poses to our country right now, including where I live here in Grand Haven, MI. I talked about how Christians are increasingly comfortable with fascist perspectives and ideology, something that should concern all of us, conservative and liberal alike.This week, I'd like to drill down to one specific point—book banning—and to explore some of the uncomfortable history Christianity has with this common tactic of fascists.First, we have to acknowledge that Christianity has often sought to suppress literature which it has perceived as contrary to the dominant view at the time. The original book burner himself was 15th century priest Girolamo Savonarola whose “Bonfire of the Vanities” burned art and books that he believed were morally lax or questionable. In 1517, the Nine Five Theses from Martin Luther were condemned by Pope Leo X. Later in the sixteenth century, the Holy Inquisition began compiling its Index Librorum Prohibitorum, a list of books and authors that Catholics were not allowed to print or read. The system remained in place for the next several hundred years, not abandoned until the conclusion of the Second Vatican Council. In my own English Christian tradition, the leaders of the Church of England (when it was still part of the Roman Catholic Church) burned thousands of copies of William Tyndale's English translation of the New Testament, eventually burning Tyndale himself as well. And, as many of us know, several books that have been banned in history have wound up being regarded as classic works of literature by later generations. Daniel Defoe's book Robinson Crusoe was on the Catholic Church's Index Librorum. So was Le Misérables by Victor Hugo. Boston's district attorney threatened to ban Walt Whitman's book Leaves of Grass. Christians in the White Citizen's Council urged the restriction of The Rabbits' Wedding because they thought this illustrated book promoted the dangerous idea of racial integration. Other examples include Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five, James Dickey's Deliverance, The Diary of Anne Frank, and I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou. And it's not just questions of morals, Christians have also opposed books that might encourage people to understand the Bible and its teachings differently. Darwin's Origin of the Species was banned from the library of Trinity College Cambridge, where Darwin himself had studied. In 1925, Tennessee banned the teaching of the theory of evolution in schools in any form, a law that remained in place since the late sixties. But we also have several modern day examples of conservative Christians urging the banning of books. When I was in college, the battle was against JK Rowling and her Harry Potter series, due to its supposed encouragement of witchcraft and the occult. It struck me even then that it was odd Christians couldn't distinguish fictional magical powers from occult practices of worship and how many Christians missed the point in the first book that the most powerful thing of all was the self-sacrifice of Harry's mother in love for her son… a decidedly Christian idea!So much of the history of Christians censoring, banning, or even burning books is based on two elements: fear and the need to control. Christians have feared depictions of anything that they think might threaten their own conceptions of morality, anything that might send people down the wrong path. They believe that banning books will help them control people, ensure they are not exposed to anything to which their understanding of faith is opposed.And yet, the early church was remarkably committed to ideals of freedom and openness of dialogue, believing that the Christian faith could not be coerced. They opposed any sort of attempts at control to get people to be Christians or to force people to adopt Christian ways of thinking. They believed that the Christian life has to, in the end, be chosen by each individual or it will be broken from the start..I was struck by a verse from First John which was in the appointed Scripture readings for Morning Prayer this past Tuesday. In it, St. John wrote, “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear; for fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not reached perfection in love.” I wish Christians would let go of fear and control and instead seek perfection in love. Neither of these are virtues for the Christian faith. Indeed, Christianity actually thrives much more when people live with attitudes of love, respect, and humility, when it doesn't try to control what people read or how people live but instead when individual Christians choose to display in their own lives the love and sacrifice of Jesus, when Christians strive to be curious instead of judgmental.Christians need to repent, once and for all, of this tendency in our tradition throughout history to ban or burn that which we deem inappropriate. Instead, let's trust trained librarians to curate content that is age appropriate and, above all, let's engage in conversation about difficult works of literature, asking why it is so unsettling to people… and, perhaps most importantly, asking if you are unsettled because the content is inappropriate, or because the content raises issues of sin, selfishness, discrimination, or control that are already present in your own heart. And maybe your heart is what you should focus on a little bit more.Thanks for being with me. To find out more about my parish, you can go to sjegh.com. Until next time, remember, protest like Jesus, love recklessly, and live your faith out in a community that accepts you but also challenges you to be better tomorrow than you are today.
Tonight we began with Letter 76 where Theophan again takes up the temptations that are coming to Anastasia from unbelievers. They have begun to call into question the reality of God and the dignity of the human person; making absurd arguments and trying to twist her up within them. With clarity, he tells Anastasia simply to stay focused upon the dignity of the human person. No matter how diminished we are physically, emotionally, or spiritually, we always bear within us the grace of God who created us in His image and likeness. Even if that reality seems to be lost altogether and personhood is called into question, each individual has an inherent value and dignity in Christ. Within the Divine Economy God is always working through the circumstances of our lives in order to bring about our salvation. Life in this world may seem unreasonable or harsh but none of it prevents God from manifesting himself in our lives and bringing us to a share in His Eternal Life. In Letter 77, Theophan focuses upon another temptation rooted in domestic unpleasantness. Anastasia is frustrated by having to live in obedience to her parents and postponing her entrance into the monastery. This is the Evil One's doing, Theophan tells her, and he has muddled her brain, confusing her mind with uncertainty. It is all deception, Theophan warns her and she must cross herself and drive out the temptation. It is tantamount to making mountains out of mole hills. We tend to do that with so many things in our life. Rather than fighting the good fight of faith against the evil one we will direct our frustration outward on to other people and circumstances. We must embrace those circumstances in a spirit of humility and obedience, always seeking to conform ourselves to Christ and to see our lives in light of the mystery of the Cross. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:04:47 FrDavid Abernethy, CO: No Whining.

My Dad told us children, that people that are born this way go straight to Heaven. That they cannot speak or they would tell all of the secrets of Heaven. Every once in a while we were all supposed to volunteer to take Stephanie out and keep her company and give her care givers a break. One Sunday, I jumped on the opportunity to be with her. I already did like to be with her but now that I thought she knew the secrets of Heaven I could not wait for my turn. She never said anything but she just grabbed my face and smile when I asked her. As I child I felt happy but jealous of her being able to go straight to Heaven. 00:37:22 Edward Kleinguetl: 21 00:38:01 Anthony: He was not even Coptic, but, i think, Ghanian 00:38:43 Rachel: Oh my goodness.

Writer, preacher, reformer, martyr. Girolamo Savonarola was an inspiration to Martin Luther and an early martyr for the Protestant Reformation. He's also a controversial figure – more Old Testament prophet than humble friar. He tried to end the Renaissance, to create a city of God. We can learn a lot from his story today. Our guest Samantha Morris discusses her book Girolamo Savonarola: The Renaissance Preacher and the history of the “mad preacher of Florence”. Her new book is "The Pope's Greatest Adversary: Girolamo Savonarola". Think you could end a movement? Destroy some of the best art ever made? Nearly topple the Italian Renaissance? Of course not, but that's what one man tried to do at the end of the 1400s. He was a righteous man who fought against the evil of Pope Alexander VI. But he went too far—trying to make the world behave in a godly fashion instead of changing the hearts of Florence. In a time before the Bible was readily available in people's own languages, Girolamo Savonarola was put to death by the very superstition he tried to defeat. Learn more about your ad choices.

Il 21 settembre del 1453 nasce a Ferrara Girolamo SavonarolaTesto: Istituto di Storia Contemporanea di FerraraVoce: Domenico LugasMontaggio: Pietro Perelli
Tratam-se dos inquisidores Torquemada e Bernardo Gui e de Girolamo Savonarola. O que sei sobre eles é muito exíguo (sobre Torquemada, em algum lugar certa vez que ele foi o grande inquisidor do seu tempo, e perseguia cristãos-novos acusados de práticas judaizantes, mas que ele próprio era de origem judáica. Bernardo Gui escreveu o Manual do Inquisidor, mas sua imagem no filme O Nome da Rosa parece ser oposta ao que ele aparentava ser, se levarmos em conta o seu próprio Manual do Inquisidor. E finalmente Savonarola pretendia moralizar Florença, mas acabou na fogueira por ordem de Alexandre VI – conforme a história convencional nos ensina). Gostaria de saber o essencial sobre estas pessoas. Até quando Torquemada e Bernardo Gui podem ser considerados culpados – se houve algo de criminoso em seus atos? E Savonarola? Foi um “mártir” dos excessos do papa Alexandre VI? O que este homem pregava? Essas pessoas trouxeram benefício ou prejuízo à Igreja? Desde já, agradeço a atenção.
Not a huge amount is known about Pacchierotto, a sodomite who was convicted and publicly humiliated in Florence, Italy, in 1486, but his story tells us much about the changing fortunes of sodomites at the time, and the important role they played in the politics of the time. In this special episode, Huw talks to Max Fox, editor of Christopher Chitty's Sexual Hegemony: Statecraft, Sodomy, and Capital in the Rise of the World System about Florentine sodomy in the Renaissance, and Chitty's groundbreaking new book. ----more---- Sources: Chitty, Christopher, Sexual Hegemony: Statecraft, Sodomy, and Capital in the Rise of the World System, Duke University Press, 2020 Rocke, Michael, Forbidden Friendships: Homosexuality and Male Culture in Renaissance Florence, Oxford University Press, 1996 Online Digital Map: Flynn, Aidan, Sodomy and The City: Mapping Fear, Surveillance, Sexuality, and Punishment, University of Toronto, 2018 https://utoronto.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapJournal/index.html?appid=590a95cd059240388f003c49cd722dc9 Scelta di prediche e scritti di fra Girolamo Savonarola.

Girolamo Savonarola foi um padre e político italiano, muito importante para a história de Florença no final do século XV. Nascido em Ferrara (Emília-Romanha), em 1452, era filho de um rico comerciante e de uma mulher de origens nobres. Durante sua juventude estou dou medicina, mas acabou ouvindo o chamado da fé e tornou-se noviço em 1475, diácono em 1477 e padre poucos anos depois. As "fogueiras das vaidades" eram grandes fogueiras que o frade promovia em praça pública, onde convidada a população a se livrar de bens de luxo, queimando na fogueiras símbolos da decadência dos costumes como perucas, espelhos, roupas luxuosas, livros e obras de arte que não tivessem cunho religioso e que levassem à degradação dos costumes. A fogueira das vaidades mais famosa foi realizada no dia 7 de fevereiro de 1497, durante o Carnaval daquele ano. Foi também Savonarola que promoveu uma grande reforma no Palazzo Vecchio, encomendando a construção de um grande salão que deveria comportar 1500 parlamentares em 3 turnos diferentes, sala que conhecemos hoje como Salão dos 500. Os sermões inflamados do padre contra o papa acabaram por decretar a morte do monge. Irritado com as críticas de Savonarola, o papa Alexandre VI ameaça excomungar toda a cidade de Florença. A República de Florença fica encurralada e acaba capturando Savonarola, que é enforcado e depois queimado em praça pública, em frente ao Palazzo Vecchio, no dia 23 de maio de 1498, exatamente em frente onde hoje há a Fonte de Netuno. Para que não haja um culto a sua figura suas cinzas são jogadas no rio Arno e a cidade promove um "danatio memorie", apagando sua existência dos anais citadinos. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/paulo-cardoso-vieira-moz/message

Elections Series. Episode #1 of 4. On the morning of August 11, 1492, Rodrigo Borgia was elected Pope, taking the name Alexander VI and yelling “I am Pope! I am Pope!” The throngs of Romans in the Piazza di San Pietro shared in his excitement. But for some, the Papal Election of 1492 seemed to indicate the downfall of the papacy, if not the end of days. Giovanni de Medici is recorded as saying, “Now we are in the power of a wolf, the most rapacious, perhaps that this world has ever seen; and if we do not flee, he will infallibly devour us.” Gian Andrea Boccaccio wrote in a letter to the Duke of Ferrara, “ten Papacies would not suffice to satisfy the greed of all his kindred.” Ferrante, King of Naples, purportedly told his wife, “This election will not only undermine the peace of Italy, but that of the whole of Christendom.” The priest and prognosticator Girolamo Savonarola would spend the last year of his life trying to render the 1492 Papal election void due to simony, a campaign that resulted in his excommunication, torture, and execution. What was it about the Papal Election of 1492 and its resultant Pontiff, Alexander VI, that elicited such a dramatic range of reactions? As it turns out, this question is difficult to answer but it involves assassination, simony, nepotism, accusations of poison, coercion, abuse, incest, wildly debauched orgies, and political corruption.

After Lorenzo de Medici's death in 1492, Botticelli gave up painting, abandoned his humanist studies, and became a hardcore fundamentalist Christian. As did a lot of Florentines. The reason? They all fell under the spell of the original fire and brimstone preacher. He wasn't rich. He didn't have an army. He wasn't of the nobility. He wasn't sent by the pope. In fact, the Pope hated him. But he managed to do what so many rich men with armies had failed to do for decades. He overturned the government of Florence, kicked out the Medici family, and took control of the city. And... to top it off, he was a precursor of the Reformation. He is famous for the Bonfire Of The Vanities. His name was Girolamo SAVONAROLA. The post #94 – Savonarola Part 1 appeared first on The Renaissance Times.
È mercoledì 3 maggio 1469 quando a Firenze nasce, da nobile ma decaduta famiglia, Niccolò Machiavelli, fra i più importanti personaggi dell'intera letteratura italiana e non solo di quella rinascimentale. In una lettera del marzo 1498 scrive una critica serrata all'azione politica di Girolamo Savonarola, discutibile in sé ma condotta con una risolutezza di giudizio e di stile che già preannunciano il futuro scrittore. Nell'assolvere le sue missioni si trovò nei punti nevralgici della politica fiorentina, italiana ed europea del tempo. Nel forzato esilio compose le sue opere più grandi: i Discorsi sopra la Prima Deca di Tito Livio e il Principe, al quale è in gran parte affidata la sua gloria. Con questi scritti Niccolò fondava una nuova scienza autonoma, la politica, distinguendola decisamente dalla morale e dalla religiosità. Lui partiva dallo studio dell'uomo e della realtà, cercando di trarre leggi universali che regolano la vita degli stati. Nel Principe proponeva agli italiani una generosa e appassionata utopia: la fondazione di uno stato unitario che la liberasse dalle invasioni straniere, dallo strazio e dall'avvilimento presente. ©Editoriale Programma – Alessandra Artale

Hey everybody! Welcome back for another thrilling episode of Queer All Year! Today, Cat and McG have a bit of fun with various wordplay regarding Star Wars and give various excuses for not having seen The Rise Of Skywalker. Next, we get to Cat's main story which involves Girolamo Savonarola, who attempted to bring about the purifying of the Catholic Church. It would appear he did not succeed.

On this day in 1497, followers of the Dominican friar Girolamo Savonarola burned objects thought to incite sin in an event known as the Bonfire of the Vanities. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://news.iheart.com/podcast-advertisers
Jonathan Freedland and his guests compare the Bonfire of the Vanities in fifteenth century Florence with Extinction Rebellion's Autumn Uprising. Girolamo Savonarola was a Dominican Friar whose apocalyptic sermons inspired his followers, the Piagnoni or 'wailers' to take over Florence's streets and squares, challenging the authorities and condemning the consumption of sinful luxuries, such as mirrors, cosmetics and musical instruments. Today's Extinction Rebellion activists have also staged city-centre protests, demanding radical action to reduce carbon emissions and the consumption of modern luxuries such as fast fashion and air travel. Joining Jonathan to discuss past and present are Evelyn Welch, Professor of Renaissance Studies at King's College London, Tim Stanley of The Telegraph and William Skeaping of Extinction Rebellion.

Por si había alguna duda, Sergio Alejo también vuelve a La Biblioteca Perdida esta temporada. Y lo hace, como no puede ser de otra forma, con una nueva entrega de Por los Dioses, en la que esta vez nos llevará al siglo V antes de nuestra era para conocer el primero de los grandes conflictos entre el Imperio Persa y las polis helenas. Nos referimos a la revuelta jónica que trató de poner en jaque al mismísimo Dario I y que sentaría las bases de las futuras Guerras Médicas. Seguimos con el Arte de la Guerra, sección del simpar Gerión de Contestania. Nos trasladará a los años 1499 y 1501, siete años después del final de la Guerra de Granada, cuando se produjeron una serie de levantamientos de la población musulmana afincada en los territorios del antiguo Reino Nazarí de Granada contra sus gobernantes católicos. A este episodio histórico, en el que se volvieron a enfrentar en la Península Ibérica cristianos y musulmanes se le denominó "Rebelión de las Alpujarras". En la sección que desempolvamos de anteriores temporadas, recordaremos la historia de Girolamo Savonarola, el dominico que fue capaz de adueñarse de la mismísima Florencia con sus implacables discursos sobre la cristiandad y contra el papado.

The angel has just arrived. A puff of wind passes through his light veil. Like conception, like life: a gasp, a breath. He kneels, a hand outstretched towards Mary to reassure her. Distracted from her reading, the Virgin almost turns upon herself; her gaze is turned inwards, as if listening to the heartbeat. One hand says “wait”, the other is level with her heart. It takes time to take in a piece of news. The announcement changes the Virgin: life changes with a child. The life growing inside you brings immense emotions with it. You are no longer alone; there’s someone living in your womb, the perfect home. When I was expecting my daughter, she lived perfectly inside me and had everything she needed through me. Wait! I’m not ready! Perhaps I am enough for you now, but later, when I am no longer your perfect dwelling place? What will become of us? Wait! One needs time to understand, to accept. Mary accepts her son, and her pain too, as foreshadowed in the Pietà in the bottom of the frame. It is difficult to accept what can be taken away. Here, where the angel has just landed, we find ourselves in the shelter of a home. Gabriel, silhouetted against the door, is somehow outside Mary’s domestic space; at the same time, by bursting into the house, he brings God’s breath into a human space. Mary’s womb contains divine life and breath; it is a perfect home, but with time it will inevitably become too small. Perhaps we are all seeking the perfect home, but all the places where we live push us out at some point. Behind the angel there is a door, with glimpses of a walled garden – a reference to Mary’s purity – and a magnificent view. Botticelli has painted a young tree in the middle. Some experts think it is an ash: a Marian plant, lethal to snakes like the Virgin is lethal to the devil. Other academics see it as an oak. I like to think it is. Its roots can emerge from the soil and re-enter it in more distant places, drawing ever more strength. Botticelli painted this Annunciation during a religious crisis triggered by the preaching in Florence of Girolamo Savonarola, the Dominican friar who played a leading role in establishing the Republic in 1494. His sermons profoundly affected the artist who for years had been the leading exponent of the neo-Platonic culture promoted by the Medici family. Here, in this austere space, the figures of Mary and the angel are animated by a spiritual tension not found in Botticelli’s previous work. The painting, which had originally been painted for the Church of Cestello, arrived in the Uffizi in 1872. That same Gallery is where I began to work as a museum guard in 1986. But I didn’t look at the artworks; I was too much in pain. I really became aware of the Cestello Annunciation when I was asked to choose a painting. I felt something in those hands, which Mary holds as if protecting her heart. The baby’s heart, the first thing detected in a scan. It’s the only thing you see, a breath, a beat... That is why I chose this painting, or it chose me, because after all, it is artworks that reflect our emotions, they resemble us, and call on us to weave our stories with theirs.

Today is Friday so it is a Thought of the Walk day and I got a little weird this week. I started thinking about social networks, censorship and the Bonfire of the Vanities.

Get a behind the scenes look at the movie Tortured for Christ which is a real life story about Richard Wurmbrand, a Christian martyr, who stood firm in the Christian faith in the midst of being brutally persecuted. The movie’s director, John Grooters, joins the Men Unplugged show as Jeff and John look at Richard’s story for practical ways on how you can stand firm in your faith. So whether you’re at home, work, or in the community you will be encouraged and equipped to stand firm and true to your faith as a disciple of Jesus Christ. Key Tips: If you stand for what’s right according to God’s Word you are going to get persecuted in some way. It may not come in the form of physical torture but it may be in the form of judgment, losing a business deal, a job, or even a friendship. There are two types of Christians, those who sincerely love God and those who just as sincerely say they love God. Original quote from Italian Preacher and Martyr, Girolamo Savonarola. “Many men that came to room 4 were atheist, but not one of them died an atheist.” Richard Wurmbrand in Tortured for Christ God does not call us to be politically correct. God calls us to be true to His Word. As men of God we need to live in such a way realizing the Holy Spirit resides in us and that we need to love even our enemies and pray for those who persecute you. Just like King David, when the chips are down in your life seek the Lord. Sometimes what you think is a bust in society’s eyes is actually a victory in the eyes of God. If you cannot get over yourself, you have not been transformed by the Gospel. Resources Mentioned: Tortured for Christ (movie) Tortured for Christ (book) Jeff Jerina's evangelism training book.

Girolamo Savonarola nació en Ferrara, Italia, el 21 de septiembre de 1452. En sus primeros escritos de adolescente, Savonarola ya evidenciaba su carácter recio y franco. Encontró insoportable el paganismo humanista que corrompía los modales, el arte, la poesía y la religión misma. Él vio como la causa de esta corrupción que se extiende a un clero despiadado incluso en los niveles más altos de la jerarquía de la iglesia. El 24 de abril de 1475, abandonó la casa de su padre y sus estudios médicos, en los que se había embarcado después de graduarse en artes, para ingresar a la orden dominicana en Bolonia. Al regresar a Ferrara cuatro años después, enseñó las Escrituras en el Convento degli Angeli. El estudio de las Escrituras, junto con las obras de Tomás de Aquino, siempre fueron su gran pasión. En 1482, Savonarola fue enviado a Florencia para ocupar el cargo de profesor en el convento de San Marco, donde ganó una gran reputación por su enseñanza y ascetismo. Sin embargo, fue su predicación la que lo catapultó a la popularidad entre los ciudadanos de Florencia. Frecuentemente, desde la catedral en Florencia, Savonarola predicaba a sus oyentes en su propio idioma vernáculo usando vívidas imágenes y un lenguaje particularmente sencillo adornado por una gran elocuencia y pasión. Anunció la gracia salvadora de Cristo con una base bíblica sólida mientras lanzaba fuertes críticas a las prácticas inmorales de los líderes políticos y eclesiásticos de la ciudad y de la Iglesia de Roma. Su predicación influyente, junto con algunos eventos extraordinarios fuera del control de Savonarola, como la invasión sorpresa del rey francés a Italia, elevaron súbitamente su influencia en Florencia. Carlos VIII, el rey francés invade Florencia en 1494 y expulsa a la familia Médici, quienes gobernaban la ciudad. Girolamo Savonarola, tras la expulsión de los Médici, surge como el líder de la ciudad. De 1494 a 1498, Savonarola promovió un dramático y controversial cambio político y social en la ciudad. Su predicación se volvió mucho más profética y virulenta. Durante este tiempo comenzó a enfatizar fuertemente en el regreso de Cristo, como consecuencia llamó a Florencia a vivir como una nueva Jerusalén. Su reforma moral llevó a una reorganización política que fue recibida con entusiasmo por los florentinos. Savonarola buscaba establecer una “república cristiana” en la ciudad. Hacia la cúspide de estos cambios, Savonarola organizó a los jóvenes de Florencia para modelar e incitar una reforma, promoviendo varias “Hogueras de Vanidades” como protesta contra el carnaval anual de Mardi gras. Estos jóvenes incitaban a los ciudadanos a destruir instrumentos de tentación como máscaras de carnaval, cartas de juego, vestidos caros, maquillaje, espejos, incluso instrumentos musicales y hasta obras de arte. La última de estas ocurrió en la Plaza de la Señoría en el centro de Florencia el 7 de febrero de 1497, meses antes de que el Papa Alejandro VI (1431-1503) excomulgara a Savonarola. Después de su excomunión, el conflicto de Savonarola con el Papa Alejandro VI se encendió más cuando el papa logró interceptar algunas cartas que Savonarola había enviado a los reyes de Francia, Inglaterra, España, Hungría, y al emperador de Alemania, pidiéndoles llamar a un concilio eclesiástico para destituir al papa por sus abusos. El 13 de mayo de 1497, Savonarola fue expulsado de la Iglesia. Finalmente el papa ordenó su arresto y ejecución. El 8 de abril de 1498, una delegación del ejército del papa entró en Florencia, mientras la ciudad no oponía resistencia. Savonarola y los suyos acabaron siendo detenidos. Poco después, Savonarola, acusado de herejía, rebelión y errores religiosos, fue conducido a la prisión de Florencia. Durante cuarenta y dos días se le sometió a tortura. El día fijado para su ejecución fue llevado hasta la Piazza della Signoria junto con sus dos seguidores más fieles. A los tres se les quitó la ropa, fueron t...
Florence Episode 10 Piazza della Signoria First, find out about some of the historical events which took place in the Piazza della Signoria across the centuries, then hear about the main works of art to be found there. The final section tells the story of the 15th century mad monk Girolamo Savonarola, whose fiery preaching persuaded the citizens of Florence to burn most of their precious possessions in a grand 'bonfire of the vanities' here on the square.
Girolamo Savonarola was an inspiration to Martin Luther and an early martyr for the Protestant Reformation. He's also a controversial figure – more Old Testament prophet than humble friar. Our guest Samantha Morris (https://theborgiabull.com) discusses her book Girolamo Savonarola: The Renaissance Preacher and the history of the “mad preacher of Florence”. Think you could end a movement? Destroy some of the best art ever made? Nearly topple the Italian Renaissance? Of course not, but that's what one man tried to do at the end of the 1400's. He was a righteous man who fought against the evil of Pope Alexander the VI. But he we went too far—trying to make the world behave in a godly fashion instead of changing the hearts of Florence. In a time before the Bible was readily available in people's own languages, Girolamo Savonarola was put to death by the very superstition he tried to defeat. Truce is a listener-supported podcast.

Download the mp3 using the link below to listen to the full We start, however, in the 14th and 15th centuries where there was a great European revival of interest in the values of classical Greek and Roman literature, art, philosophy and politics. It started in Italy and spread throughout Europe. Scholars were called humanists as they moulded their life on the teachings of the great Greek and Roman classical literature. Scholastic freedom grew exponentially. There was also an increase in other areas of life: Roman morality, paganism, the Greek New Testament and the study thereof. Many new universities throughout Europe were started. We look together at three men, albeit briefly, at what they had to do with the Church at that time: Girolamo Savonarola (1452-1498) John Colet (1466-1519) Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus (1467-1536) Erasmus is described as the one who laid the egg which was hatched my Martin Luther...

In this episode of 5 Minutes in Church History, Dr. Stephen Nichols introduces us to Girolamo Savonarola and his book "The Triumph of the Cross."
Girolamo Savonarola wasn't the typical Dominican friar. He began protesting moral corruption in the clergy at a young age. Eventually he came to Florence, the dominion of the powerful and decadent Medici clan. Tune in and learn what happened next.

Savonarola wird hingerichtet: Der Dominikanermönch Girolamo Savonarola regierte vier Jahre lang, von 1494 bis 1498, in Florenz, ohne offiziell ein politisches Amt innezuhaben - er wetterte gegen die Verderbtheit der Reichen und den Sittenverfall des Klerus
This is the 4th episode in a mini-series we're calling “The Long Road to Reform.”It was late Spring of 1490 when a Dominican friar stood at the gates of Florence. This was not the first time the 33 year old Girolamo [ger-all-a-mo] had made the 160 KM / 100 miles trip from his native Ferrara to the city of the Medici's. He'd lived for a spell in the city. The Florentines admired his scholarship but were put off by the vehemence of his preaching. They had a hard time adapting to his accent. But now he returned at the invitation of Lorenzo de Medici; Lorenzo the Magnificent, who virtually owned Florence, and to whom he'd been recommended by the famous philosopher Mirandola.Girolamo Savonarola joined the monastery of St. Mark and began a series of lectures for his fellow friars. Soon others joined the sessions causing them to relocate to the main hall. The lectures turned into sermons. By the Lenten Season of 1491, Savonarola's growing fame saw him invited to preach at the main church in Florence. Short on tact, Savonarola lambasted the decadence of the city's rich, of which there were not a few. Lorenzo de Medici was especially displeased. Who did this upstart think he was? He'd only come to Florence at Lorenzo's invitation. This was no way for a guest in HIS city to act. Medici hired another preacher to attack Savonarola. It failed since the people sided with Savonarola. He'd become their champion in decrying the exorbitant luxuries of the wealthy.The mercenary preacher refused to accept defeat. He went to Rome to plot his revenge.Savonarola was then elected prior of St. Mark's and within a short time, reformed the life of the community so thoroughly, the people of Florence all remarked on how holy the order had grown. Savonarola sold off some of the monastery's estates and gave the proceeds to the poor.Savonarola's reputation was unimpeachably. Though bitter enemies, when Lorenzo lay dying, he asked for the prior to come bless him. Lorenzo's successor was Pietro de Medici, who promptly lost all respect from the Florentines. The French King, Charles VIII, was on his way to claim the rule of Naples. Instead of organizing the defense of Florence as he ought, Pietro tried to buy him off. The Florentines were furious and sent their own embassy under Savonarola. They expelled the now hated Pietro and settled with the French by becoming allies. Though Savonarola was technically just a monastic prior, he'd become the civil leader. The Florentines asked him to design a new government. He recommended a republic and installed reforms to heal the ailing economy. He gathered a good part of the gold and silver of the many city churches and sold it to feed the poor. This was the high-water mark of his term.History regards Savonarola as a religious fanatic & ignorant monk. He wasn't. He was simply someone who understood that the Church and Italian society had gone far from the Biblical ideal. What Savonarola was, was an anti-politician. That is, he had little to no capacity for compromise; doom for anyone engaged in civil politics. Savonarola was unable to distinguish between rules and principles; between non-negotiables and his own opinions. As a result, he was on a collision course with the very people who'd put him in power.Savonarola believed study ought to be at the center of reformation. So the friars at St. Mark's studied Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, and Aramaic. He railed against the luxuries of the wealthy, placing them all under the rubric “vanity.” These vanities, he railed, were a distraction that weakened the soul and made it prone to sin. So, at his urging the people of Florence regularly gathered to pile such vanities up and set them ablaze. First, a large pile of wood was erected in the main square. Under it was placed straw and kindling sprinkled with gunpowder. Onto of the pile people put their vanities; frilly dresses, jewelry, wigs, and ostentatious furniture. Amidst singing and ceremony, the thing was set on fire – a Bonfire of the Vanities. These bonfires replaced the traditional celebration of carnival just before Lent, something else Savonarola had banned.His reforms were echoed in surrounding cities. When Florence's rival republic of Siena requested Savonarola's assistance, he went with twenty fellow monks. They arrived in Siena and went to work with their reforms. First order of business was to clear house in the monastery there. When some of the expelled monks resisted the reforms, Savonarola decided if they weren't going along with his plans, he'd leave. He had more luck at Pisa and the monasteries scattered round Tuscany.As we might expect, Savonarola's downfall came about because of his inability to play the political game.Alexander VI, one of the worst of the popes, made an alliance against France that included a good part of Italy, Germany, and Spain. The smart move was to join the pope's party. But Savonarola insisted on keeping his promise to the French. The pope responded with severe measures against Savonarola personally, then against all Florence. These measures were largely economic in nature. When the Florentines realized they'd lost a great deal of trade because their pastor was being stubborn, opposition grew. The City became increasingly fractured between supporters and opponents. On the opponent's side were most of the wealthy. His supporters declared Savonarola a prophet and demanded he perform miracles. When something he foretold came to pass, they grew even more enthusiastic. But when he failed to perform the required miracles, they turned on him.A mob marched on St. Mark's to apprehend him. Savonarola refused to defend himself. He forbade friends resisting the mob lest an innocent be harmed. He was hauled to the City Square where he was beaten and turned over to the authorities, some of whom had longed for this day for years.This was it; the civil showdown. The authorities had to find something damning to accuse him of. To elicit a confession, he was tortured for days. But the most they could make him confess to was something he'd never claimed to begin with; being a prophet.The pope sent legates to assist in the trial. These also tortured Savonarola. All they could obtain was an admission he'd planned to appeal to a church council. Savonarola admitted he'd been too proud in his call for reform, saying, “Lord, if even Peter, on whom you had bestowed so many gifts and graces, failed so thoroughly, what else could I do?”Despairing of finding charges severe enough to execute him, the judges condemned Savonarola and two friends as “heretics and schismatics,” without identifying what heresy they espoused. They were turned over to the civil authorities to be executed, for again, the Church must not kill. The only mercy Savonarola received was that he and his friends were hanged before being burned. Their ashes were then thrown into the Arno River flowing through Florence. This was considered the height of infamy. By scattering one's ashes, there was nothing left of them to remember; no place people could mark a memorial and keep their name alive. In spite of this, there were many of Savonarola's supporters who kept his relics.I've been to Florence and stood at his little memorial on the paving stones of the Main Square.Years after his death, when Rome was sacked by the Germans, some saw it as the fulfillment of Savonarola's prophecy. To this day, there are those in the Roman Church who argue Savonarola was a saint, and that his name should be added to the official list.As we end this episode, I wanted to take a quick moment to say thanks to all the new CS subscribers and the many of you who've liked us on FB, or written a review on iTunes.
