Magic and Impotence in the Middle Ages

Investigates the widely held medieval belief that magic could cause sexual dysfunction. This book focuses on the period 1150-1450, and compares sources from four genres: confessors' manuals, medical compendia, canon law commentaries, and commentaries on the Sentences of Peter Lombard. It shows that ideas about the legitimacy of magic were varied.
