Excerpt from Girolamo Savonarola: A Prophet of Righteousness IT was some years ago that I began the serious study of the life and character of Savonarola. Since then I have been on the alert to read what ever would throw light ou the man, or show more clearly the meaning and value of his work. In the present volume no attempt has been made at comprehensive biographical study. This would have required much more space than has been placed at my disposal. It has been my purpose rather, keeping in mind the general aim of the se ries of which this volume is a part, to show what Savonarola was as a man, and what he did as a true prophet of righteousness. In doing this, I have described the times in which he lived and the men with whom he associated only so far as was necessary to make clear the meaning of what he spoke and what he wrought.
