Joachim of Fiore - (Italian language ''Gioacchino da Fiore'') (1135 - 1201), was the founder of monastic order of San Giovanni in Fiore. He was a mysticism, a theology and an esotericism. Born in Celico in the Kingdom of Naples, from Mauro the notary and Gemma, he became a notary himself and worked for the kings of Sicily when he had a spiritual conversion, and went off on pilgrimage to the Holy Land, a time about which we know very little. When he returned, he lived as a hermit for several years before joining the Cistercian Order. He later became abbot of Corazzo. One of his most important works is ''Age of the Spirit''. He theorized a new age in which the hierarchy of the church would be unnecessary and infidels would unite with Christians. The most spiritual Franciscan monks acclaimed him as a prophet. Dante Alighieri in The Divine Comedy placed him in paradise. 1135 births 1201 deaths
