De Lamiis et Pythonicis Mulieribus,
EDITORS COMMENTS
translated as "Of Witches and Diviner Women," is a seminal work on the topic of witchcraft and women's spirituality written by Ulrich Molitor in 1508. This print depicts a scene from the book, which was produced using the xylography technique in Augsburg, Germany. Ulrich Molitor was a German physician and scholar who lived during the late Middle Ages. His work on witches and diviner women was one of the earliest and most comprehensive texts on the subject, and it significantly influenced the way that witchcraft was perceived and understood during the European Witch Trials. The image shows a group of older women gathered around a cauldron, engaged in a ritual. Some of them are holding various objects, such as a broom, a staff, or a crystal ball, while others are chanting or singing. The scene exudes an air of mystery and otherworldliness, reflecting the belief that these women possessed supernatural powers. The title "De Lamiis et Pythonicis Mulieribus" is inscribed at the top of the print, along with the name of the author and the place and year of publication. The intricate details of the woodcut illustration show the skill and artistry of the xylographic process, which involved carving the design into a block of wood and then printing it onto paper. This print is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the beliefs and practices of women who were considered to be outside the mainstream of society. It also underscores the importance of Ulrich Molitor's work in shaping the way that witches and diviner women were perceived and portrayed during the European Witch Trials. Overall, it is an intriguing and thought-provoking image that continues to captivate and intrigue scholars and enthusiasts of medieval history and folklore.
