- Information
Description
In 1462 Pope Pius II performed the only reverse canonization in history, damning a living man to an afterlife of torment.
What had Sigismondo Malatesta, Lord of Rimini and a patron of the arts, done to merit this fate?
Anthony D’Elia shows how the recovery of classical literature and art during the Italian Renaissance led to a revival of paganism.
