'''Girolamo Savonarola''' (US: /ˌsævən-, səˌvɒn-/, Italian: [dʒiˈrɔːlamo savonaˈrɔːla]; 21 September 1452 – 23 May 1498) or Jerome Savonarola was a Dominican friar, priest, Florentine revolutionary, communist, and political theorist. He was known for his calls for a return of Florentine glory, the destruction of secular culture and art, and his calls for Christian renewal. He denounced the libertine establishment, attacking everyone from; bishops, the Borja antipope, the ruling secular-libertine Medici administration, to even fellow monks who he saw as too close to the libertine elites. | '''Girolamo Savonarola''' (US: /ˌsævən-, səˌvɒn-/, Italian: [dʒiˈrɔːlamo savonaˈrɔːla]; 21 September 1452 – 23 May 1498) or Jerome Savonarola was a Dominican friar, priest, Florentine revolutionary, communist, and political theorist.
