It is customary to set aside the work "On the Demonomania of Sorcerers" from other works of Jean Bodin, speaking of its author, a man of a brilliant mind and one of the most outstanding thinkers of his time, only as a victim of folk superstitions. But a deeper analysis of this composition in the canvas of the era when it was created allows us to look at Boden's intellectual heritage differently. Instead of a person confused in paradoxes, he appears as a consistent thinker of his time, who created an original and unique picture of the world. Carefully and consistently, according to the ideas of the Renaissance and the logic of humanism, Boden connects, thanks to knowledge in jurisprudence, politics, physics and theology, spiritual with material, sacred with everyday, mystical with rational and divine with diabolical.
