On Magic (De Magia) [Translated]: A Theological and Philosophical Relectio from the Year 1540 Kindle Edition

Salamanca was a great university for theology and international law, but legend said the Devil ran a college of magic there. On July 10, 1540, Friar Francisco de Vitoria, theologian and pioneer of human rights law, gave a university-wide presentation, "De Magia," on the theology and philosophy of magic.

Did magic exist? Could it perform miracles? Could it be done without dealing with the devil? Did people using magic even realize the moral implications? And had perfectly natural scientific curiosities, like magnetism, often been mistaken for magic?

Never before translated into English, here is an interesting glimpse into a world in transition between medieval and modern, as classical literature and patristics meets Spanish folklore.
