Resumen:
Michael Psellos´ demonology, although commonly unknown, was a main source for many major Italian authors as Marsilio Ficino and Girolamo Cardano, which shaped their own conceptions on demons and heavenly creatures by reading and commenting the dialogue "On the Power of Demons", previously unknown. In this paper, I focus on the Italian reception of these ideas.
