Munich Manual (Clm 849)
Liber incantationum, exorcismorum et fascinationum variarum
One of the most famous ritual-magic manuals of the medieval West: conjurations, necromantic experiments, love- and hate-bindings, illusions, divination. All 310 folios, transcribed from the Latin and translated by us, with each folio's facsimile. Our own transcription (not Kieckhefer's copyrighted edition). Historical material, not a how-to.
