16 – Savonarola: The Mad Monk of Florence
The Renaissance: A History of Renaissance Art. - Un pódcast de Denis Byrd
We will discuss Savonarola, the “Mad Monk” of Florence. The man who would help to hasten the end of Florence’s Golden Age and turn Florence into a theocratic regime that was ironically both its most autocratic and most democratic phase in history. He would influence artists like Botticelli and Michelangelo with his fiery sermons as well as thousands of Florentines who would follow him.
