title: Daemonologie: A Critical Edition. Expanded. In Modern English with Notes
author: King James
description: King James became the VI King of Scotland on the 24th July 1567 and the I King of England and Ireland on 24th March 1603 and remained so until his death. He authorized the 1611 English publication of the King James Version of the bible that is widely used to this day and still regarded as the official biblical standard among protestants all over the world. This resulted in a famous gunpowder plot to blow up parliament by Guy Fawkes as a desperate attempt of the Roman Catholic Church to put an end to an English Version of that bible that would threaten their influential power and control over Europe. King James influenced not only religion but art as well. Shakespeare himself referenced King James' Dmonologie in the work of Macbeth that has in and of itself impacted modern society's approach to the artistic representation of witchcraft, occultism and religion. James' legacy continues to influence the world and remains as one of the greatest monarchs that helped shape the modern religious movements in Protestantism. <br /><br /> Other works by King James::<br /><br /> The Essayes of a Prentise in the Divine Art of Poesie, (also called Some Reulis and Cautelis), 1584;<br /><br /> His Majesties Poeticall Exercises at Vacant Houres, 1591; (Lepanto, poem);<br /><br /> Daemonologie, 1597;<br /><br /> The True Law of Free Monarchies, 1598;<br /><br /> Basilikon Doron, 1599;<br /><br /> A Counterblaste to Tobacco, 1604;<br /><br /> An Apologie for the Oath of Allegiance, 1608;<br /><br /> A Premonition to All Most Mightie Monarches, 1609;<br /><br />
