The Examen of Witches is a book written by Henry Boguet in the 16th century. It is a treatise on the subject of witchcraft and the methods used to identify and prosecute witches. The book is written in the form of a dialogue between a judge and a theologian, and it covers a wide range of topics related to witchcraft, including the nature of witches, the ways in which they practice their craft, and the punishments that should be inflicted upon them. Boguet argues that witches are real and that they pose a serious threat to society. He provides detailed instructions on how to identify witches, including the use of torture and other forms of coercion. The Examen of Witches is an important historical document that sheds light on the beliefs and practices of people during the early modern period.
