Savonarola: A Play In Nine Scenes is a dramatic work written by Wallace A. Bacon. The play centers around the life and times of Girolamo Savonarola, an Italian friar and preacher who lived during the Renaissance period. The play is divided into nine scenes, each of which explores a different aspect of Savonarola's life and work. The play begins with Savonarola's early life as a friar and his rise to prominence as a preacher in Florence. It then delves into his political and religious beliefs, his conflicts with the ruling Medici family, and his eventual downfall and execution. Throughout the play, Bacon explores themes of power, religion, and morality, and portrays Savonarola as a complex and dynamic figure who was deeply committed to his beliefs. The play is written in a poetic and lyrical style, and features richly drawn characters and vivid descriptions of Renaissance Italy. Overall, Savonarola: A Play In Nine Scenes is a compelling and thought-provoking work that offers a unique perspective on one of the most fascinating figures of the Renaissance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
