1555réf. GEJ-11Pescia: Lorenzo Torrentino, 1555, 4to, [13] 18-126 [1] of colophon 1 blank. Book in Italian. 1st Italian Edition (2nd overall) of this rare demonology tratise. Later (18/19 .century) later half morocco with gold lettered spine and blank pages. Marbled endpapers. Architectural woodcut border on title-page with a small view of Florence and with Medici coat of arms. Woodcut initials, woodcut vignette on verso of A4. Colophon leaf at end. Very ginuine interior, clean, without marks, annotations, stamps and ex libris. No foxing and stains. Complete. First Italian edition and the first translation from the 1523 Latin original by Turino Turini, marking the earliest book on witchcraft printed in the Italian vernacular. While the dialogue format reinforces the grim theological framework of the Malleus Maleficarum and contemporary inquisitorial manuals regarding sabbaths and demonic pacts, it stands apart for its erudition. By sophisticatedly weaving classical and pagan citations into medieval scholastic precepts, Pico della Mirandola effectively pioneered the "humanistic literature of witchcraft," bridging Renaissance intellectualism and counter-reformation demonology. The work embodies the Renaissance approach to demonology, demonstrating how a humanist could substantiate the reality of witchcraft, transvection, and the sabbath using classical sources alongside scripture and inquisitorial manuals. Ultimately, the early modern obsession with demonology is presented not as an irrational residue of a rational age, but as a foundational conceptual nexus essential to understanding sixteenth-century philosophy.

1733réf. GEJ-16Wolffenbüttel [Wolfenbüttel]: Zu finden bey Johann Christoph Meißner, 1733. In-8, 136 pp., [4] leaves (Register). Small octavo (17 x 10 cm). Contemporary red cardboard binding, incorporating the original paper wrapper. Covering material stained. Paper greyed. Interior minimally rubbed and bumped, slightly stained and dusty. 1st and only edition, Extremely Scarce!!! First edition of this exceptionally and unique rare and foundational text-monument of early European vampirology, published at the absolute zenith of the 18th-century "Vampire Controversy" (Vampyrstreit). This seminal octavo volume comprising the one-color title page in black, 136 pages of gothic Fraktur text, and the final index leaves, stands as one of the most critical contemporary intellectual responses to the vampire panic that swept Central and Southeastern Europe. The hysteria, which gripped the public imagination following the official Habsburg military and medical reports from the Serbian borders—most notably the grim exhumations related to Peter Plogojowitz in 1725 and Arnold Paole in 1732—effectively introduced the Slavic concept and the very word "vampire" into the lexicon of Western European Enlightenment discourse. The author, Johann Christoph Harenberg (1696–1774), an eminent German theologian, historian, and school rector, approaches this terrifying contemporary phenomenon with a sophisticated blend of early scientific rationalism and Protestant orthodoxy. While providing his readers with highly detailed, sensational, and meticulously recorded case studies of alleged vampiric attacks and ritualistic desecrations of corpses along the volatile Ottoman-Serbian frontiers ("Gräntzen des Servien-Landes"), Harenberg systematically deconstructs the supernatural myths surrounding them. He fiercely rejects the physical reality of the animated dead, brilliantly diagnosing the epidemic not as a literal threat, but as a "disease of the imagination" (Phantastische Seuche). He argues that the perceived visitations are the tragic products of mass psychological trauma, rural ignorance, premature burials, and the natural, misunderstood processes of bodily decomposition. Furthermore, from a theological standpoint, Harenberg maintains that God would never permit the souls of the deceased to return to the mortal realm for such grotesque purposes, attributing the sightings to demonic illusions or sheer human sensory deception. Preceding Dom Augustin Calmet’s celebrated and widely translated phantom treatise by more than a decade, Harenberg’s work represents a vital, transitional milestone bridging the late-baroque fascination with the occult and the burgeoning skepticism of the Age of Reason. Recorded in the German national bibliography under VD18, this remains a highly coveted, profoundly influential masterwork for specialized collections focusing on the history of magic, early medicine, folklore, and the European Enlightenment. An item of legendary rarity on the open market, this 1733 first edition represents an exceptional, census-proven acquisition opportunity for the discerning collector of early occult and Enlightenment literature. According to worldwide institutional databases and international library union catalogs (including WorldCat and the Karlsruhe Virtual Catalog / KVK), fewer than 12 institutional copies of the physical 1733 original printing are recorded globally, with the vast majority permanently secured within key European state repositories such as the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek in Munich, the Herzog August Bibliothek in Wolfenbüttel, and the Universitätsbibliothek Göttingen. The vast majority of library search results for this title point strictly to modern digital facsimiles, microform copies, or late 20th-century reprints, masking the true, extreme scarcity of the physical artifact. Since virtually all known original copies are institutionalized and perpetually removed from commerce, public auction appearances of this seminal vampire tract are virtually non-existent. A profoundly elusive work of early Vampyrologia, this piece stands as an ultimate desideratum that has historically escaped even the most exhaustive collections of early horror and paranormal history.

1620in-4 (mm 224x159), pp.(16), 372 (ultima bianca), leg. coeva in pergamena. Pagina di titolo racchiusa da un'elaborata bordura incisa e raffigurante il sole, alberi di palma e una campana. Prima edizione, assai rara e pregiata, di una delle opere più studiate e influenti del filosofo, al quale costò la prigione e la tortura, su condanna dell'Inquisizione per eresia. Il De Sensu Rerum rappresenta un completo esposto di filosofia neo-platonica ed ermetica. Campanella ivi tenta di dimostrare che il numero dei mondi è infinito, che i pianeti sono abitati e che il sole si avvicina gradatamente alla terra. Discute inoltre di magia, dei sensi, dell'intelletto, dell'anima, del mondo esterno, ecc. Il trattato lascia intuire di essere stato influenzato dalla linea filosofica di B. Telesio e G. Bruno. Scritto originalmente nel 1590-92, il manoscritto venne rubato a Campanella da alcuni frati a Bologna. Venne quindi riscritto dallo stesso autore attorno al 1604 e pubblicato nella presente edizione originale nel 1620.. Firpo n.7. Yates 381-82. Caillet 1984.

1615réf. GEJ-13Paris, Jean Millot, 1615. In-12 : 109pp, (1). Full original vellum binding and endpapers with blank pages. Parchment with defects on the cover, few stains at the end of book. Shorter page 103/104 due to handmade paper inperfections. Some worm holes. Bright and complete copy. Two old ink different anotations on the first endpaper. This exceptionally rare 1615 Parisian first edition, published by Jean Millot, represents a foundational cornerstone in early modern demonological literature and the history of psychiatry. Written by the French physician Jean de Nynauld, De la lycanthropie, transformation et extase des sorciers is widely celebrated by historians Evans and Bartholomew as "the most extensive and detailed description of ointments in relation to both witchcraft and lycanthropy." Across four meticulous chapters dedicated entirely to the salves of sorcerers, Nynauld documents the grim contemporary lore surrounding these unguents, including the notorious belief that they utilized the fat of sacrificed children. However, rather than validating these horrors as supernatural reality, Nynauld applies a brilliant, early medical rationalism to the phenomenon. He boldly declares the numerous reports of murderous, cannibalistic shapeshifters and sabbat flights to be powerful hallucinations brought on by diabolical chemistry—specifically, the pharmacological effects of psychoactive herbs. Defying the harsh inquisitorial consensus of his era, he firmly regards those who claim they metamorphose into animals not as literal monsters or heretics, but as sufferers of severe mental disorders and clinical delusion. Consequently, this prized editio princeps stands as a crucial historical milestone, marking the transition from superstitious witch-hunting to a rational understanding of early pharmacology and mental health.

1561réf. GEJ-10Paris, apud Gilles Corrozet, 1561, [1], 40, [1] pp, 8°. Book in Latin. RARE AND UNCOMMON ON THE MARKET FIRST PARISIAN PRINTING! 17/18 century full calf binding, gold lettered spine, marbled endpapers, owner's ex libris of Emeric Bigot (?) on title page. Good antiquarian condition, woodcut printers device to title, woodcut initials. Few stains and discolorations. Complete. Published in Paris by Gilles Corrozet in 1561, this rare edition of Ulrich Molitor’s Tractatus de lamiis et pythonicis stands as a definitive cornerstone of early occult literature and a fascinating, skeptical counterpoint to fanatical witch-hunting manuals like the Malleus Maleficarum. Written by a prominent German jurist, the treatise is historically significant for its early skepticism, as Molitor boldly argued that supernatural acts like shape-shifting or flying to sabbaths were merely illusions and dreams induced by the Devil rather than physical realities. This text is equally famous for containing the earliest printed depictions of witches, establishing the modern iconography of the occult through striking woodcut imagery that includes scenes of witches brewing storms in cauldrons, a wizard riding a wolf, and the Devil corrupting a woman. Composed as a direct response to Europe's rising witchcraft hysteria, this treatise introduces cold legal logic and canonical jurisprudence into a debate previously dominated by religious fanaticism. Moving away from dry academic lecturing, the text adopts the dynamic structure of a scholarly dialogue between three real historical figures: Archduke Sigismund of Austria, the ruler of Tyrol, who acts as the voice of skepticism by raising logical doubts and challenging the validity of witch trials; Conrad Schatz, the magistrate of Constance, who champions the strict, traditional view by defending the physical reality of witchcraft and demanding harsh punishments; and Ulrich Molitor himself, the author, who serves as the impartial arbiter utilizing Roman and Canon law to systematically resolve the disagreements between his interlocutors. Ulrich Molitor (c. 1442–1507) was a pioneering German jurist, humanist, and diplomat who shaped early modern legal thought. After studying humanities in Basel, he earned a prestigious doctorate in civil and canon law from the University of Pavia, positioning him at the forefront of Renaissance jurisprudence. He spent the pinnacle of his career as a trusted legal advisor to Archduke Sigismund of Austria in Innsbruck and later served as chancellor to the Bishop of Worms. Molitor’s enduring legacy is his 1489 masterpiece, Tractatus de lamiis et pythonicis, which stands as one of history's earliest legal critiques of witch-hunt fanaticism. By utilizing rigorous Roman and Canon law to argue that witchcraft was largely a demonic illusion, he became a vehement opponent of judicial torture, forever marking his place as a trailblazer of European rationalism. Provenance: Emeric Bigot (?) - Ex Libris: Emeric Bigot (1626–1689) was a prominent French humanist, bibliophile, and a central figure in the 17th-century European intellectual network known as the Respublica Literaria (Republic of Letters). Born and based in Rouen, he used his substantial wealth to amass one of the most legendary private libraries in Europe, renowned for its rare Greek and Latin manuscripts and early printed books. Though he published little under his own name—focusing primarily on editing early Christian texts—Bigot served as an indispensable international scholarly coordinator. He maintained a vast correspondence with major thinkers like John Milton and Nicolas Heinsius, utilizing his unparalleled bibliographic expertise to source texts, verify translations, and generously assist scholars across the continent in preparing their own monumental works for print.

2002DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SFONDO DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. LIEVISSIMI SEGNI DEL TEMPO, GRAFFIETTI ALLA COPERTINA. Michel Zévaco (Ajaccio, 1º febbraio 1860, Eaubonne, 8 agosto 1918) è stato un romanziere, insegnante, giornalista, editore e attivista anarchico francese. Degno successore di Alexandre Dumas, Michel Zévaco, popolarissimo autore di feuilletons a cavallo tra Otto e Novecento, ci offre con Nostradamus, il primo romanzo del ciclo da lui dedicato alla figura del celebre autore delle profetiche Centurie. L'Autore dipinge il ritratto, cupo e sanguinoso, della Francia di Caterina de' Medici, delle guerre di religione, della caccia alle streghe... In un susseguirsi di duelli, agguati notturni, rapimenti, magie, evocazione di morti, prende corpo la trama della ventennale vendetta, con cui l'ormai anziano Nostradamus vuol punire coloro che gli hanno rovinato la giovinezza e sottratto Marie, la giovane sposa: re Enrico II di Valois, e i suoi infidi amici, Roncherolles e Saint-André. Recentemente ristampato in Francia dalla casa editrice Laffont, il romanzo ha riscosso un enorme successo.
