Specialist Notes
Interesting collection of the main writings dedicated to the debate that arose around the publication of Of the nocturnal congress of the Lammies published by Girolamo Tartarotti in 1749. Among these is the first edition of The magic art disappeared written by the historian and scholar of Veronese origin Scipione Maffei (1675-1755) who criticizes Tartarotti for not having carried through the Enlightenment criticism and having maintained a superstitious attitude towards magic, of which the Rovereto abbot does not deny the 'existence.
