The book also examines the historical context in which Pomponazzi lived and wrote, including the influence of the Renaissance and the Catholic Church.Overall, Pietro Pomponazzi On Incantations is a valuable resource for scholars of philosophy, religion, and the history of magic and the supernatural.
