There is this book that I have read a few times since it first popped up on my radar many years ago; I watched a TED Talk, it was one of Sir Ken Robinson’s talks, Do Schools Kill Creativity? In this lecture Robinson refers to something he calls, The Element (also aptly the title of the book in reference), thi
23 May 1498, execution by burning of Italian Dominican friar and preacher Girolamo Savonarola. Denouncing clerical corruption, despotic rule and the exploitation of the poor. He prophesied the coming of a biblical flood, and reformation of the church. In September 1494, at the height of the invasion of French king Charles VIII, Savonarola’s prophecies struck a chord with the youth of Florence, who led a puritanical revolt against the ruling Medici’s; culminating in February 1497, in the ‘bonfires of the vanities’,when his supporters forcibly collected and burned thousands of works of art, and books in Florence. Excommunicated by the pope in May 1497, his supporters began to fade, and he was condemned, hanged, and burned in the main square of Florence on this day.
