Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Kramer's treatise on witchcraft and demons emerged from his frustration after a failed witchcraft trial. Aimed at guiding witch hunters, it became a key reference for Christians on demonology, despite not being directly utilized by the infamous Inquisition. This influential work shaped perceptions of witchcraft for centuries and remains a critical text in the study of the subject. The modern English translation by Montague Summers makes it accessible to contemporary readers, preserving its historical significance.
