Abstract
Several medieval moral and didactic tales describe the animation of corpses by the devil or demons. But the theme of the diabolical corpse also appears in learned demonology, as part of a general theory of the apparition of angels and demons. Theologians reject the idea that these are only hallucinations, and they must explain how demons and angels, which are pure incorporeal invisible spirits, can appear to us. Between 1100 and 1250, they developed a theory of assumed bodies, by supposing that demons and angels can temporarily attach themselves to a body, either a corpse, or a mass of condensed air. They associate the assumption of corpses to demonic magic. The discussion does not have anecdotal interest only, because it permits theologians to conceptualise the power of demons, while also emphasising their incapacity to work real miracles. At the same time, the concept of the assumed body leads them to discuss the notion of life and the human person.. At the end of this debate, in order to save the reality of apparitions, while also respecting their concepts of life and the soul, theologians amplify the possibility for simulation and deceit. Even though a demon is not a real person, quite incapable of the life functions (opera vitae), demons can manipulate the assumed corpse in a perfect way. Man loses any fixed criteria to distinguish between the real and fake, and must permanently be on his guard, for he can never be sure that the devil is not lurking somewhere.
