Description

Description from Wellcome Collection

Recovers the wider scholarship of Jesuit Martin Delrio (1551-1608), beyond his Disquisitiones magicae, revealing his influence on early modern cultural, religious, and intellectual history, despite his later reputation for credulity and cruelty as attitudes towards witchcraft changed.
