The Malleus Maleficarum is a treatise on the identification and punishment of witches, written in 1486 by Heinrich Kramer and Jacob Sprenger. It is one of the best-known and most influential works on witchcraft, and played a significant role in both the witch-hunts of the early modern period and the development of Protestant demonology.
