De la lycanthropie, transformation et extase des sorciers....
A 1615 Paris treatise by the physician J. de Nynauld, printed by Nicolas Rousset, on lycanthropy, sorcerers' transformations and ecstasy, written for a French readership of the early seventeenth century. The pictures are mostly typographic: a foliate woodcut initial C with leafy scrollwork, decorative tailpiece ornaments and dense black-letter-style French text, showing how ornamental capitals and compact printed type framed scholarly argument.
