After a period when he held close to absolute power in the great Renaissance republic, Savonarola was excommunicated by the Borgia pope, Alexander VI, in 1497 and, after a further year of struggle, was hanged and burned in Florence's Piazza della Signoria in 1498. The Latin writings brought together in this volume consist of various letters, a formal apologia, and his Dialogue on the truth of prophecy, all written in the last year of his life. They defend his prophetic mission and work of reform in Florence while providing a fascinating window on to the mind of a religious fanatic. All these works are here translated into English for the first time"-- |cProvided by publisher. 546 Texts in Latin with English translations on facing pages; introduction in English. 505 00 |tLetter to Alexander VI, July 31, 1495 -- |tLetter to Alexander VI, September 29, 1495 -- |tApology for the Brothers of the Congregation of San Marco -- |tLetter to Alexander VI, May 20, 1497 -- |tLetter against the sentence of excommunication, June 1497 -- |tLetter to Alexander VI, October 13, 1497 -- |tLetter to Alexander VI, March 13, 1498 -- |tLetter to Alexander VI, March 13, 1498 (unsent version) -- |tDialogue on the truth of prophecy. 600 10 Savonarola, Girolamo, |d1452-1498 |xPolitical and social views. |=^A25327 600 10 Savonarola, Girolamo, |d1452-1498 |xReligion. |=^A25327 600 10 Savonarola, Girolamo, |d1452-1498 |vCorrespondence. |=^A25327 610 20 Dominicans |zItaly |zFlorence |vCorrespondence. |=^A821666 600 00 Alexander |bVI, |cPope, |d1431-1503 |vCorrespondence. |=^A98402 650 0 Reformers |zItaly |zFlorence |vCorrespondence. |=^A39795 651 0 Florence (Italy) |xHistory |y1421-1737 |vSources. |=^A85638 651 0 Florence (Italy) |xChurch history |vSources. |=^A217368 650 0 Excommunication |xCatholic Church |xHistory |yTo 1500 |vSources. |=^A1412632 700 1 Mulchahey, M.
