Description
The Malleus Maleficarum: A Historical Account of Witchcraft and the Inquisition. First published in 1486, this influential text provides an in-depth examination of cults, illicit sex, dealings with the devil, and other topics relevant to the witch hunts of northern Germany during the late 15th century. The book is based on extensive research by two Dominican friars who traveled throughout the region, gathering information from Inquisition records, interviewing accused witches, and attending trials. The Malleus Maleficarum remains a significant work in the history of European social science, offering valuable insights into the superstitions and fears that drove the witch hunts of medieval Europe. This edition has been reprinted by Courier Corporation, making it available to readers interested in the subject.
