(Sorry if this violates the example seeking questions rule)
I was browsing various occult topics on wikipedia when Daemonologie came up. I found a pdf of it in all its glorious olde english and was thoroughly engrossed reading it.
Did any of the other great philosophers, theologians, or monarchs write so much about the occult? If I had to give a scope, would Europe before 1850 work? I'd love to take a look at other works like Daemonologie!
Just reassuring you that the question is fine : the "example seeking" rule does not apply to requests for source material
There are a significant number of tracts on witchcraft in the late sixteenth/early seventeenth century. Really, you were fortunate in your find of Daemonologie as that is more of a synthetic work by James in 1597 than an original piece. James first gained significant interest in the pursuit of witches between 1589-1591. The story is well told in Pauline Croft's biography of King James on pages 25-27, but here is a summary: James had just married Anne of Denmark and was sailing to her homeland on a brief holiday from Scotland. A group of witches conspired to sink the ship on James and Anne's trip and tried to use powers of the occult to summon a storm. The storm obviously failed, and James and Anne arrived in Denmark safely. Denmark's Lutheran church was in the midst of a witch hunt, and got James' attention. Once arriving back in Scotland he pursued the witches who sent the storm, and in the end convicted and hanged them.
If you want a list of witch trials and documents, the best place to start is Wallace Notestein's History of Witchcraft. The appendix is a list of all the contemporary printed sources in England related to witches. The other more narrative work is Kittredge, Witchcraft in Old and New England.
The most famous skeptic of the period was Reginald Scot who published his book The Discoverie of Witchcraft in 1584.
From 1645-7, after the three years of civil war and near famine food levels, Matthew Hopkins ran the most famous witch hunt in England. He interrogated and executed over 100 men and women charged with witchcraft (Sharp, Instruments of Darkness p. 129). Eventually, Hopkins himself was executed for witchcraft. The best modern account of the witch hunt is Gaskill, Witchfinders. If you have access to a University Library, they will likely have some of his writings available either online or in facsimile. You also might want to check out Breslaw, Witches in the Atlantic World, which covers a greater scope both geographically and temporally.
If the topic of witches is of interest to you I found looking into the Malleus Maleficarum will interest you. It was the equivalent to a witch hunting textbook during the witch craze periods in Europe. Not 100% sure of its influence in the Americas. I wrote an essay on this topic earlier this year and found the original sources horrifying yet interesting.
If you can get hold of Stuart Clark's Thinking with Demons, his bibliography has everything ever printed on witchcraft before 1800 (about 30 pages of primary sources), and most of it afterwards too. Google books will give you some idea of what's available.
The canonical Renaissance reference on magic is Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy, published in 1531. But poke around her for a bunch of others: http://www.esotericarchives.com/ .
The Malleus Maleficarum is a work that gets talked about a decent amount.
Just a point of pedantry -- I assume you probably mean Black Letter English (the font type) instead of "glorious olde english". Old English is the language of Beowulf and fades into Middle English around the 13th century. King James would've written in Early Modern English -- still had vestiges of Middle English, but much more similar to our own language, even if the vocabulary is a little off.
