Remigius, (-)

Nicolas Remy (or Remi) (Latinized: Remigius) (1530-1612), was French judicial official involved with the Inquisition. His work on witch-hunting, Dæmonolatreia, was published in three books in Lugduni in 1595. Since there have been a German translation (1693) and an English one by Montague Summers under the name Daemonolatry (1930). Like the witch hunting works of Trithemius and Sprenger & Kramer (the infamous Malleus Maleficarum)*, the Daemonolatreia explains the horrors and dangers of the power of the witches, how to distinguish them, and how to torture and destroy them.

*editors note: it is amazing that Lovecraft never mentioned this quintessential work of witchcraft.
