EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Devil and the Nuns," is taken from Thomas Glanville's seminal work "Saducismus Triumphatus," published in 1681. The image powerfully depicts the Devil in his most menacing form, corrupting a group of unsuspecting nuns. Glanville, a prominent English cleric and author, used this image to bolster his argument for the existence of witches and their malign supernatural magical powers. The Devil, with horns, a goatee, and a sinister grin, reaches out to touch one nun, while another clutches at his outstretched hand. The sisters, dressed in their religious habits, are shown in various stages of shock and despair. The Devil's presence is a clear threat, a dark and demonic force that seeks to corrupt and abuse the innocent. The title "Saducismus Triumphatus" refers to the Sadducees, a Jewish sect from the time of Jesus, who were known for denying the immortality of the soul. Glanville used this comparison to position those who doubted the existence of witches and their powers as heretics, just as the Sadducees were in their own time. This image is a powerful reminder of the enduring myth of the Devil and his ability to corrupt and tempt, even those who are meant to be closest to the divine. The paranormal and demonic themes in the image reflect the folklore and beliefs of the time, and continue to fascinate and intrigue us today.
