The text, written from a counter-reformation viewpoint, covers superstition, idolatry and devil worship, amulets, incantations, spells, alchemy, exorcism, prophecy, divination, and provides a list of satanic authors (including Bacon, Paracelsus, and George Ripley). \u003cbr\u003eIt became the standard guide for priests and ecclesiastical judges, both Catholic and Protestant, throughout the 17th century, particularly during the height of the witch-hunts in France and the German states in the first decades of the seventeenth century.\u003cbr\u003e=====================\u003cbr\u003eWith engraved title page and 1 folded table.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e11 leaves, 276 pp., 10 leaves, 268 pp., 10 leaves (oil), 2 leaves, 250 pp., 6 leaves. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginal limp vellum (signs of wear). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Palau 268, 269.
