Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prophet of Florence There was a movement among the bushes: a youth groping to reach a spot where a knotted clump of cypress on a hillock made a little viewpoint over the far ways. He stood for a few moments, grasping the cypress as if it possessed some living power, at one with the spirit of the place, to guide and direct, with the dumb expectant air of an imprisoned life, waiting for something to break the bars of sense - for the mists to break over the rift of morning light - the vision which, when it opened in its full glory, would yet be but a hovering, mystic dream way - unrealized. The gray mantle thrown carelessly over head and shoulders marked a slight st00p in the figure of the boy as he stood thus silhouetted against the dark of the cypress, while the hood brushed back from his brow revealed, in dark relief, the lights and shadows of a face touched with the world-vision of sorrow of the man. Through the long hour he stood thus, bending further forward in the strain of expectancy, until. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Savonarola written by Donald Weinstein and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Girolamo Savonarola, the fifteenth-century doom-saying friar, embraced the revolution of the Florentine republic and prophesied that it would become the center of a New Age of Christian renewal and world domination. This new biography, the culmination of many decades of study, presents an original interpretation of Savonarola's prophetic career and a highly nuanced assessment of his vision and motivations. Weinstein sorts out the multiple strands that connect Savonarola to his time and place, following him from his youthful rejection of a world he regarded as corrupt, to his engagement with that world to save it from itself, to his shattering confession—an admission that he had invented his prophesies and faked his visions. Was his confession sincere? A forgery circulated by his inquisitors? Or an attempt to escape bone-breaking torture? Weinstein offers a highly innovative analysis of the testimony to provide the first truly satisfying account of Savonarola and his fate as a failed prophet.

This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lorenzo the Magnificent and Florence in Her Golden Age Roscoe's book, written nearly a century ago, can never be entirely superseded. It retains, moreover, among its many excellences, the prestige attaching to the work of a pioneer. But in the course of a century much fresh light has been thrown on Lorenzo's work and character. Baron von Reumont, therefore, supplied a pressing need by the publication of his volumes, based on most minute, careful and conscientious researches. Almost every available document and source was ransacked by Von Reumont to provide material for his book, and, since his researches were completed, comparatively little that is fresh has come to light.

One of the most translated books in history, Gibran’s famous work has been translated into over 100 different languages since its first publication in 1923. The book provides timeless spiritual wisdom on universally-shared aspects of life, such as giving, buying and selling, beauty and friendship, eating and drinking, crime and punishment and spirituality and religion. The book follows Almustafa, a man who has waited for twelve years for a ship to take him from the island of Orphalese back to his home. He has come to know the people on the island, who consider him a wise and insightful man. On the day Almustafa’s ship finally arrives, he feels a deep sadness. The local elders ask him not to leave. Almustafa speaks of his philosophy of life and the truths he has discovered to the gathered crowd. His words have an almost magical quality to them. As he prepares to board his ship, it becomes clear that Almustafa’s words do not refer to his journey home, but rather to the world he came from before he was born. The Prophet is a metaphor for the mystery of life and an exploration of the human condition.

They were pre - eminently preachers of righteousness. Fearless and undaunted, they told the house of Israel their sins and the house of Jacob their transgressions. They contemplated the facts of life from the highest point of view. For them religion and morality were blended, ethics and politics were one. Theirs was peculiarly a social mes sage; the demand for justice underlies all their thinking and speaking. They had a veritable passion for righteousness; through all the ages their words have been torches lighting the way of men struggling upward towards the truth.
