What is the personality type of Girolamo Savonarola? Which MBTI personality type best fits? Personality type for Girolamo Savonarola from Historical Figures 1400s and what is the personality traits.
Girolamo Savonarola personality type is ISTJ, and his Fi/Te functions are Te-Ti auxiliary and Te-Ni inferior (inferior Ne being the same as extended Ni).
The only thing is that, in this case, the inferior function is not a “minor” function, but an auxiliary one, which is not a common feature among ISTJ types. As such, it’s not a “signature” but a typical feature of SSA types. So Fi/Te is not a “minor” function but an auxiliary one.
To conclude:
Fi/Te is not a minor function. It’s an auxiliary one. It doesn’t “add” anything to Fi/Si, but it definitely adds something to Te/Ni.
To satisfy your last question, I would say that Fi/Te is a “depressive” function in ISTJ, who is dominating Ni and Si. It’s not dissimilar to the typical Fi/Si, or even Ti/Si, in INTJ. The major difference is that ISTJ has more Fe than Ti and therefore exaggerates his depressing function.
