1822 Benvenuto Cellini FAMOUS Memoirs Autobiography Supernatural Visions Demons

Benvenuto Cellini was a 16th-century Italian scholar who is most famous for his autobiography. This book gives a detailed account of his career as goldsmith, artist, soldier, and poet. His story; however, is much more than just a day-by-day retelling of his life. Cellini covers strange and bizarre phenomena including a story of him summoning demons in Rome! He also recounts his supernatural visions and miraculous cures from being poisoned!

According to Herbert Maryon, “Benvenuto Cellini is the author of the most delightful autobiography ever written”.
