George Eliot portrayed the Dominican monk and politician Savonarola as a man led astray by the power of his own rhetoric, but 500 years after his death how do modern historians assess the role of one of the most intriguing characters of Renaissance Florence? Richard Coles investigates. Plus new poetry from one of Poland's finest living writers, Adam Zagajewski.
