| Summary | "De la démonialité des animaux incubes et succubes" by Ludovico Maria Sinistrari is a theological discourse written in the late 17th century. The work examines the existence of creatures, specifically incubi and succubi, which are rational beings akin to humans, possessing bodies and souls, and capable of salvation or damnation. Through Sinistrari's lens, these beings tie back into historical and cultural narratives, merging medieval theology with philosophical inquiries about demonic relationships and their implications. The opening of the text introduces the author's intention to explore the nature and reality of these entities. The narrative begins with the author's personal anecdotes about discovering an ancient manuscript in a London bookstore, which piques his interest towards uncovering details about the relationships between humans and these supernatural beings. Sinistrari discusses the manuscript's background and significance, detailing the unique arguments he presents, which differentiate the sins associated with demons from those of bestiality, suggesting a broader spiritual and moral framework. The tone is a mix of scholarly reverence and historical inquiry, preparing the reader for the complex arguments that will follow regarding the interplay between human and demonic essence.
