Prince modèle de la Renaissance, Laurent le Magnifique donne le ton à l'Europe civilisée de la fin du XVe siècle. Homme politique, il dispose à Florence de tous les pouvoirs sous l'apparence d'institutions républicaines habilement vidées de leur contenu. Banquier, il impose sa volonté aux souverains du monde en utilisant l'arme de l'argent par l'intermédiaire d'une société financière à développement multinational. Protecteur des arts et des lettres, il encourage la magnifique floraison de l'Humanisme et de la Renaissance qui font de l'Italie le moteur de l'Occident à l'aube des temps modernes. Cette réussite est obtenue à travers des drames, les révoltes sociales de la misère et de l'ambition qui ont permis aux ancêtres de Laurent de bâtir leur fortune. Lui-même forge sa toute-puissance dans la répression de la sanglante conjuration des Pazzi. Mais le succès politique a pour corollaire la ruine financière : la crise frappe de plein fouet la banque Médicis. Laurent déploie alors son génie d'homme d'État. Il établit la paix dans une Italie déchirée par la cupidité des princes, le népotisme des papes et les intrigues des dynasties étrangères dont il réussit à éviter l'intervention. Mais Laurent est aussi un merveilleux poète. Ses œuvres d'une extrême variété révèlent un tempérament amoureux, une fraîcheur d'âme, une angoisse de l'être qui aujourd'hui encore nous touchent profondément. Unissant la quête du bonheur platonicien et les exigences chrétiennes, il reflète le génie d'un temps qui sut mettre en images, sous le pinceau de Ghirlandaio et de Botticelli, la douceur et le charme des heures les plus fragiles de la vie.

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.
