This work was heavily influenced by Institoris's activities as inquisitor in Ravensburg in 1484 and Innsbruck in 1485. This volume contains the only complete translations of a large number of documents pertaining to these inquisitions, and is a companion to a new (and the only complete) edition of these texts, which shed much light on the composition of the Malleus Maleficarum in general". 410 0$aStudies in Central European histories ;$vVolume 67. 606 $aWitchcraft$vEarly works to 1800 606 $aDemonology$vEarly works to 1800 615 0$aWitchcraft 615 0$aDemonology 676 $a272.2 700 $aMackay$b Christopher S.$f1962-$01633192 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816069503321 996 $aAn unusual inquisition$94118839 997 $aUNINA
