The '''''Dictionnaire infernal''''' (English: "Infernal Dictionary") is a book on demonology, describing [[demon]]s organised in [[hierarchy of Hell|hierarchies]]. It was written by [[Jacques Collin de Plancy]] and first published in 1818. There were several editions of the book; perhaps the most famous is the 1863 edition, which included sixty-nine illustrations by Louis Le Breton depicting the appearances of several of the demons. Many but not all of these images were later used in [[S. L. MacGregor Mathers]]'s edition of the ''[[Lesser Key of Solomon]]''. | The '''''Dictionnaire infernal''''' (English: "Infernal Dictionary") is a book on demonology, describing [[demon]]s organised in [[hierarchy of Hell|hierarchies]].
