Priests and Popes Accused of Magic is a book written by Eliphas Levi, a 19th century French occultist and author. In this book, Levi explores the history of accusations of magic against priests and popes throughout the centuries. He delves into the various practices and beliefs that were deemed magical, including divination, exorcism, and the use of relics.Levi also examines the role of the Catholic Church in suppressing and condemning magic, as well as the ways in which some members of the clergy themselves engaged in magical practices. He discusses famous cases of priests and popes who were accused of magic, including Pope Sylvester II, who was rumored to have made a pact with the devil, and the infamous witch trials of the Middle Ages.Throughout the book, Levi draws on his extensive knowledge of occultism and esotericism to provide a unique perspective on the history of magic in the Catholic Church. He also offers insights into the broader cultural and historical context in which these accusations of magic occurred.Overall, Priests and Popes Accused of Magic is a fascinating exploration of the intersection of religion and magic in Western history, and a must-read for anyone interested in the occult, esotericism, or the history of Christianity.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: History of Magic: Including a Clear, and Precise Exposition of its Procedure, Rites and Mysteries, by Eliphas Levi.
