| | In the beginning Savonarola was filled with zeal, piety, and self-sacrifice for the regeneration of religious life. | | | In prophetic terms he announced the approaching judgment of God and the avenger from whom he hoped the reform of Church life. | | | Even then Savonarola refused obedience and again during the Lenten season of 1497 preached with uncontrolled violence against the Church in Rome. |

| | Encyclopedia: Girolamo Savonarola |
| | Girolamo Savonarola (Ferrara, September 21, 1452 â“ Florence, May 23, 1498), also translated as Jerome Savonarola or Hieronymous Savonarola, was a Dominican priest and, briefly, ruler of Florence, who was known for religious reformation and anti-Renaissance preaching and his book burning and destruction of art. | | | In the twentieth century, a movement for the canonization of Savonarola began to develop within the Catholic Church, with many judging his excommunication and execution to have been unjust. | | | Characterizing it as a "Christian and religious Republic", one of its first acts was to make sodomy, previously punishable by fine, into a capital offence. |

| | Savonarola had a long trial, during which he was often tortured; but whatever might be wrung from him in this way, he afterwards declared that it was not to be believed, because the weakness of his body could not bear the pain of torture, and he confessed whatever might be asked of him. | | | Savonarola had raised up a host of enemies, and some of them were eagerly looking for an opportunity of doing him some mischief. | | | But the bishop, who had once been one of Savonarola's friars at St. Mark's, was very uneasy, and said in his confusions, "I separate thee from the Church triumphant" (that is, from the Church when its warfare has ended in victory and triumph). |

| | Savonarola was one of many to accept this view, and he wove Joachim's message into his own preaching. | | | Nonetheless, Savonarola set an important precedent for later religious reformers who stressed traditional moral teachings and Christian simplicity. | | | It was during this time that he discovered the apocalyptic writings of Joachim of Flora (1132-1202), who spoke of three ages of history and the possibility of human perfection through God in the final stage. |

| | To political opposition (further provoked by Savonarola's continuing to preach after his excommunication) was added a revulsion against the atmosphere of moral crusade which he had persuaded Florence's citizens to adopt in fulfilment of a divinely-appointed role in the purification of Italy as a whole from personal sin and clerical corruption. | | | Prominently associated, as a preacher of ever-increasing political frankness and emotional power, with attacks on the materialism and misuse of authority by the Medici (though he had been called to Lorenzo's death-bed), his support was welcomed by the party calling for a broadly based republican constitution on Piero de' Medici's exile in 1494. | | | From being the great inspirer of Florence's self-confidence at a time of dislocating change and great danger, he became first its nagging conscience then its scapegoat. |
