       maleficarum; the best known and the most important 
       treatise on witchcraft; historians and work editors are 
       divided on whether Heinrich Kramer (Institoris) and Jacob 
       Sprenger collaborated as co-authors or coauthorship by 
       Sprenger was a falsehood presented by Institoris; Jacob 
       Sprenger's name was added as an author beginning in 1519, 
       33 years after the book's first publication and 24 years 
       after Sprenger's death; most of the citations in the 
       Malleus come from multiple works of Aquinas; Aquinas is a 
       main source for Section I but is cited in all sections; 
       Formicarius by Johannes Nider is the important source for 
       Section II; and Directorium Inquisitorum by Spanish 
       inquisitor Nicholas Eymeric is a crucial source for 
       Section III; within two years after the issuance of the 
       papal bull Summis desiderantes affectibus, in 1484, the 
       Malleus Maleficarum was finished; the papal bull was 
       included as part of its preface (1486); first published in
       Speyer in 1487; between 1487 and 1520, twenty editions of 
       the Malleus Maleficarum were published, and another 
       sixteen between 1574 and 1669; spread throughout Europe 
       rapidly in the late 15th and at the beginning of the 16th 
       century; in modern times, the book has often been viewed 
       as a typical inquisitorial manual, a perception that many 
       historians have refuted; actually the Inquisition 
       immediately rejected the legal procedures Kramer 
       recommended and censured the inquisitor himself just a few
       years after the Malleus was published; secular courts, not
       inquisitorial ones, resorted to the Malleus)

670    Malleus maleficorum, ex plurimis authoribus coaceruatus, 
       ac in duos tomos distinctus, 1584 
678    Malleus maleficarum, a late-medieval treatise on 
       witchcraft and court procedures for prosecuting witches, 
       was written by the Dominican monk Heinrich Institoris and 
       first printed in 1487, in Speyer (now in Germany). Some 
       early editions credit Jakob Sprenger as a co-author, but 
       scholars do not agree whether Sprenger actually 
       collaborated on this work.|bMalleus maleficarum drew 
       heavily on previous texts such as the 14th-century 
       Directorium inquisitorum (by Nicolau Eimeric), the 15th-
       century Formicarius (by Johannes Nider), and various 
       writings of Thomas Aquinas. In turn, Malleus maleficarum 
       was published in many editions and influenced both secular
       witchcraft trial procedures and popular perceptions of 
       witchcraft.
