"Demoniality Incubi and Succubi", is one of several Latin works penned by a Father Sinistrari of Ameno during the twilight of the Renaissance. Rendered into English in the late 1800s, it speaks of demons, their composition, their mannerisms, and relates numerous tales of copulation with the same. Perhaps one of the strangest works of Demonology, this work claims that it is possible for demons to father literal offspring with humans through the use of a corpse as a vehicle, and although it is a technically Catholic work, Sinistrari even makes the claim that incubi are, in some ways, perhaps superior even to man.

"The translation seems to be well done, but some words don't have a English definition so you have to be familiar with some Latin or Canon terminology. Definitely written by a priest who took his work quite seriously and was writing all of this in a very literal sense. There are several instances where he share with us his own eye-witness accounts of dealings with the supernatural. Makes a good read for someone interested in Catholic Demonology. Found it it hilarious when Ameno called Martin Luther the offspring of an Incubus but given the schism in the church at the time due to Luther it makes sense he would refer to him as the son of a demon."

Demoniality Incubi and Succubi A Book of Demonology Sinistrari of Ameno Tarl Warwick Isidore Liseux Books Reviews
- It's a little dry, as might be expected from a book written in the 17th century and translated to English some time later, yet still distant from the present.
Still, the book itself was informative not just for the explicitly described views on demonology, but also for the implicit depiction of the context of its writing. In fact the latter I found more fascinating, as many of the authors and authority figures referenced were indeed real, historical figures and can be read about or researched separately.
The author takes great care to reiterate frequently that he means no offense or disrespect to the church or its favored scholars, and he leaves any salacious bits in Latin, presumably to obscure their content from readers who may be of a less high-minded disposition.
If you can't discern Latin you'll need a translator for some passages, but other than that it's plain and easy to follow. - I am a huge fan of Tarl Warwick's political commentary but his true talent is in his studies of the Occult. Prior to following his YouTube channel on politics (which also has lots of Occult videos), I knew very little of the Occult. By watching a number of his educational videos I have gained a huge interest and this was his first work I ordered and I have to tell you, I was not disappointed whatsoever! He is charismatic and his writing is just as good as his verbal abilities of conveying messages and ideas.
This work is a modern translation from an 1870s grimoire by a French scholar, Isidore Liseaux. I have personally read hundreds of translated works from Dostoevsky to the Hindu Rig Veda. Reading many of those translated and edited classics, the message gets lost and it's translations and edits are antiquated. That is not the case with Warwick's edition of Liseaux's "Demonality Incubi and Succubi". In the forward he clearly communicates the idea of the work and explains his edits and adjustments he made. It is very easy to read, even to a newcomer of the Occult like myself. I've known a little about the Inucbi and Succubi from a medieval sexuality course I took in university and heard about these demons being blamed for infideilities and midnight emissions however prior to reading this work I didn't know the details of how this is done! I did not know about how the demon has to control a host body (corpse) to commit these actions and the fact they do it out of lust and mean no ill will to the recipient (as long as they don't resist). I was also unaware of the medieval view that these two demons are in fact higher beings than humans and on a similar level of angels and other celestial beings.
As of the quality the book is nicely bound and the covers are a matte black that look and feel so cool in your hands as you're reading this! I love the medieval style artwork on the cover with the corner trims and the writing inside is easy to read. My only complaint is the lack of titles on the spine however this work is rather short. I intend on collecting more of his works and would like to have them all of a shelf together but that's just me. My only complaint bears little on how great the quality of the work is both literary and physically.
Warwick has done a great job meticulously translating and editing this underrated piece of Demonology. It is a must have! If you look around on there are very few Occult works and most have negative to mixed reviews but if you read the reviews of all of Warwick's other works he is truly a single man powerhouse of Occult literature! There are no other authors, editors, or translators worth reading from but Tarl Warwick. Warwick is making Occult literature great again! - Much of the text is in English. However many random sentences will be in latin. This is an incomplete translation. Apparently this was intentional and by design of the original translator. Kinda lame, but that's a personal preference.
This review was edited and score increased as a recognition of my own personal bias. It was corrected to present a fair and balanced review of the content itself as opposed to my own annoyance at what I erroneously believed to be incompetence or laziness on the part of the translator, Tarl Warwick. - Not worth it. Personally did not enjoy, sticks way too close to Christian archetypes. Did not help nor did I gain information or learn whatever I was seeking.
- The translation seems to be well done, but some words don't have a English definition so you have to be familiar with some Latin or Canon terminology. Definitely written by a priest who took his work quite seriously and was writing all of this in a very literal sense. There are several instances where he share with us his own eye-witness accounts of dealings with the supernatural. Makes a good read for someone interested in Catholic Demonology. Found it it hilarious when Ameno called Martin Luther the offspring of an Incubus but given the schism in the church at the time due to Luther it makes sense he would refer to him as the son of a demon.
- The first book I have read on the subject, which led me to another book. Knowledgeable, a good starting point.
- A well-done translation of some older ideas.
- I'm satisfied, thank you!
