Plural of fulmination; sudden violent explosions or loud, vehement denunciations against something.
From Latin fulminatio, meaning a thunderbolt or striking with lightning. The English suffix -tion was added to create a noun form, and -s pluralizes it.
Religious leaders and social reformers have used fulminations for centuries—their angry speeches against evil were supposed to sound like God's thunder striking down injustice.
