Book Synopsis Martin Delrio by : Johannes M. Machielsen
Book excerpt: Martin Delrio probably never persecuted or met a witchcraft suspect, yet his name is a byword for credulity and cruelty. Jan Machielsen recovers the lost world of Delrio's scholarship set in the context of the Catholic-Reformation, rather than the straitjacket of demonology.
