Galileo
Galileo, a tutor and theorist, co-opts modern telescope technology to prove the earth is not the center of the universe. Science is a threat in a strict society dominated by an uneasy combination of aristocracy and religion already shaken by the Plague and the Reformation. Faced with execution by the Inquisition or recantation to a hypocritical but all-powerful Papacy, Galileo must choose between his life and his insatiable scientific curiosity.
