Lloyd Consolidated Bibliography .......................................................................... 417 Index .................................................................................................................. 453 PREFACE This volume is one of the principal outputs of a collaborative research project funded by the United Kingdom’s Arts and Humanities Research Council. The outputs include, in addition to the present volume, a web- site, “The Bodin Project”, now publicly accessible. The web-site contains copies in portable document format (pdf) of Jean Bodin’s main publica- tions, analyses of his sources, links to other contemporary works, and a cumulative bibliography. Its construction is being facilitated through the on-going collaboration of participants in the project who have also con- tributed to the present volume. All in all, we may justifiably claim to have satisfied the requirements of the AHRC’s ‘Research Networks and Work- shops’ scheme under the terms of which our funding was awarded. The award enabled us to hold two workshops, both hosted at the Uni- versity of Hull. At the first workshop agenda-setting papers were delivered by two of the participants, Peter Burke and Marie-Dominique Couzinet. We also heard a stimulating and enlightening paper by Mario Turchetti of Fribourg, on the challenges of preparing his bi-lingual edition (French and Latin, the two original languages) of Bodin’s masterpiece, Les Six livres de la république (De republica libri sex). The rest of the workshop was devoted to informal discussions in specialist groups, each deliberat- ing on one of Bodin’s three principal texts, the Methodus, the République and the Démonomanie, and then reporting back in plenary session. The papers published as chapters in the present volume, drafts of all of which were presented and discussed at our second workshop, may be reckoned at least in part to be fruits of those early exchanges. In addition to the authors of these chapters, the following colleagues participated in the project as discussants at our first workshop: Timothy Chesters (Royal Holloway College, London), Diego Ramada Curto (Lis- bon), Colin Davis (East Anglia), Philippe Desan (Chicago), Ralph Häfner (Tübingen), Lorna Hardwick (Open University), Simon Hodson (JISC), Kenneth D. McRae (Carleton), Ignacio Massot (Barcelona), Wolfgang, E. J. Weber (Augsburg). Their input contributed valuably to our deliberations, as did the papers already mentioned. All in all, the workshops succeeded in generating a remarkably lively and purposeful spirit, traces of which we hope are still apparent in the volume itself. viii preface All members of the project group wish to express their appreciation of the excellent facilities and support provided for them by the University of Hull. As convenor and, now, editor I should like especially to record my thanks to two friends, Glenn Burgess and Mark Greengrass, who despite other heavy commitments have been an invaluable source of advice and encouragement from the moment of the project’s conception. For help with the website I am particularly grateful to Ann Blair. I am also indebted to the artist Andre Martins de Barros for the present volume’s cover illus- tration, reproduced from an original painting which seems to capture an essential and inescapable truth: that ‘the reception of Bodin’ was depen- dent upon the transmission of ideas very largely through the medium of the printed book and the agency of printers and booksellers.

    Dominique de Courcelles 85 Entre mystique et alchimie, entrer dans son âme: las Moradas de Teresa de Jesús Dominique de Courcelles (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique-Ecole Normale Supérieure Ulm) 1. Un rêve de Teresa de Jesús? Est-ce que Thérèse de Jésus rêve lorsque, fatiguée au point que “aun los negocios forzosos escrivo con pena” (Prólogo, 1), alors que “me ha mandado la obediencia […] escribir ahora cosas de oración”, ce qui l’angoisse, estando hoy suplicando a nuestro Señor hablase por mí –porque yo no atinava a cosa que decir ni cómo comenzar a cumplir esta obediencia – se me ofreció lo que ahora diré, que es considerar nuestra alma como un castillo todo de un diamante u muy claro cristal, adonde hay muchos aposentos, ansí como en el cielo hay muchas moradas. (I, 1, 1)1 Et elle ajoute: “[…] no es otra cosa el alma del justo sino un paraíso adonde dice Él tiene sus deleites” (I, 1, 1). Ce qui s’offre à elle soudain, cette “considération”, a-t-elle la fonction de la vision ou, plus précisément, d’un rêve? Jung écrit: “Quand un homme entre dans une phase significative de son destin, on peut assurer avec certitude qu’il en a été averti par ses rêves” (194). En 1577, lorsque Thérèse de Jésus commence Le Château de l’Âme ou Livre des Demeures, le 2 juillet, jour de la Sainte Trinité, elle écrit à la demande de son supérieur et guide spirituel, Jérôme Gratien de la Mère de Dieu, et du Docteur Velázquez, son confesseur à Tolède.

On the Confessional Uses and History of Witchcraft: Thomas Stapleton’s 1594 Witchcraft Oration1 The English Catholic exile Thomas Stapleton (1535–1598) has long been known to historians of early modern witchcraft and demonology. The early twentieth-century scholar Montague Summers, a self-professed Catholic priest and a demonologist of sorts, had adopted the final line of Stapleton’s witchcraft oration—‘heresy grows with magic, and magic grows with heresy’—as his personal motto.2 The oration and, in fact, the same line also made an appearance in Hugh Trevor-Roper’s well-known Witch-Craze pamphlet of 1967.3 Stapleton is also discussed in Stuart Clark’s seminal Thinking with Demons in a chapter which surveyed the differences between Protestant and Catholic witchcraft.4 The oration, which appears here for the first time in English translation, is indeed of especial importance to historians interested in the confessional dimension of the early modern witch-hunt.

  • Machielsen, J. (2015), Martin Delrio: Demonology and Scholarship in the Counter-Reformation, Oxford, OUP, London, British Academy
    ANUARI DE FILOLOGIA. ANTIQVA ET MEDIAEVALIA (Anu.Filol.Antiq.Mediaeualia) 5/2015, pp. 107-108, ISSN: 2014-1386 Machielsen, J. (2015), Martin Delrio: Demonology and Scholarship in the Counter-Reformation, Oxford, OUP, London, British Academy La obra más reciente de Jan Machielsen podría considerarse la primera biografía contemporánea del jesuita Martín Del Río (o Delrío) (1551-1608), a quien se le conoce mayormente a través de su tratado sobre magia y brujería titulado Disquisitiones magicae (Lovaina: 1599-1600). No obstante, el trabajo de Machielsen sobre Delrío no es exclusivamente biográfico, sino que también excava generosamente dentro del contexto literario e histórico del jesuita; específicamente, ofreciendo una amplia mirada hacia la brujería y la demonología en Europa durante la época moderna. Aún más, Machielsen enfatiza que, presumiblemente, Delrío nunca mantuvo contacto directo con ningún(a) acusado(a) de brujería y que construyó su retórica a partir de diversas teorías. Así pues, Machielsen es crítico con la percepción que se tiene sobre Delrío; la de un hombre neurótico y profundamente misógino.1 Este trabajo es, a la vez, un intento para el jesuita a través de la descripción de ciertos aspectos de la vida de Delrío que a menudo son omitidos por otros historiadores. Por ejemplo, Machielsen ofrece una visión sobre del Delrío considerando su origen holandés y su crianza a manos de sus padres españoles, así como la influencia del sufrimiento infligido a su familia durante el conflicto bélico en los Países Bajos. Además, Machielsen provee ciertos datos curiosos que pueden ser de interés para traductores y filólogos, como aquel error que Delrío cometió en su Adversaria al confundir a Cicerón con Pestanus Vibonensis (Machielsen 2015:133).
