The illusio daemoniaca played a central role in debates about magic and witchcraft in the Early Modern period. This volume analyzes demonological treatises, narratives, and plays from Germany, France, England, and Spain to show how in these texts demonic deception transforms into aesthetic illusion, bringing to light a different genealogy of the aesthetic concepts of appearance and illusion.
