Book Synopsis The Routledge History of Medieval Magic by : Sophie Page
Download or read book The Routledge History of Medieval Magic written by Sophie Page and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 769 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge History of Medieval Magic brings together the work of scholars from across Europe and North America to provide extensive insights into recent developments in the study of medieval magic between c.1100 and c.1500. This book covers a wide range of topics, including the magical texts which circulated in medieval Europe, the attitudes of intellectuals and churchmen to magic, the ways in which magic intersected with other aspects of medieval culture, and the early witch trials of the fifteenth century. In doing so, it offers the reader a detailed look at the impact that magic had within medieval society, such as its relationship to gender roles, natural philosophy, and courtly culture. This is furthered by the book’s interdisciplinary approach, containing chapters dedicated to archaeology, literature, music, and visual culture, as well as texts and manuscripts. The Routledge History of Medieval Magic also outlines how research on this subject could develop in the future, highlighting under-explored subjects, unpublished sources, and new approaches to the topic. It is the ideal book for both established scholars and students of medieval magic.

Book Synopsis Magical Manuscripts in Early Modern Europe by : Daniel Bellingradt
Download or read book Magical Manuscripts in Early Modern Europe written by Daniel Bellingradt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-31 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the story of a unique collection of 140 manuscripts of ‘learned magic’ that was sold for a fantastic sum within the clandestine channels of the German book trade in the early eighteenth century. The book will interpret this collection from two angles – as an artefact of the early modern book market as well as the longue-durée tradition of Western learned magic –, thus taking a new stance towards scribal texts that are often regarded as eccentric, peripheral, or marginal. The study is structured by the apparent exceptionality, scarcity, and illegality of the collection, and provides chapters on clandestine activities in European book markets, questions of censorship regimes and efficiency, the use of manuscripts in an age of print, and the history of learned magic in early modern Europe. As the collection has survived till this day in Leipzig University Library, the book provides a critical edition of the 1710 selling catalogue, which includes a brief content analysis of all extant manuscripts. The study will be of interest to scholars and students from a variety of fields, such as early modern book history, the history of magic, cultural history, the sociology of religion, or the study of Western esotericism.

Book Synopsis Forbidden Rites by : Richard Kieckhefer
Download or read book Forbidden Rites written by Richard Kieckhefer and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1998-03-05 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preserved in the Bavarian State Library in Munich is a manuscript that few scholars have noticed and that no one in modern times has treated with the seriousness it deserves. Forbidden Rites consists of an edition of this medieval Latin text with a full commentary, including detailed analysis of the text and its contents, discussion of the historical context, translation of representative sections of the text, and comparison with other necromantic texts of the late Middle Ages. The result is the most vivid and readable introduction to medieval magic now available. Like many medieval texts for the use of magicians, this handbook is a miscellany rather than a systematic treatise. It is exceptional, however, in the scope and variety of its contents—prayers and conjurations, rituals of sympathetic magic, procedures involving astral magic, a catalogue of spirits, lengthy ceremonies for consecrating a book of magic, and other materials. With more detail on particular experiments than the famous thirteenth-century Picatrix and more variety than the Thesaurus Necromantiae ascribed to Roger Bacon, the manual is one of the most interesting and important manuscripts of medieval magic that has yet come to light.

Download or read book Space Is the Place written by John Szwed and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-30 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considered by many to be a founder of Afrofuturism, Sun Ra—aka Herman Blount—was a composer, keyboardist, bandleader, philosopher, entrepreneur, poet, and self-proclaimed extraterrestrial from Saturn. He recorded over 200 albums with his Arkestra, which, dressed in Egypto-space costumes, played everything from boogie-woogie and swing to fusion and free jazz. John Szwed's Space is the Place is the definitive biography of this musical polymath, who was one of the twentieth century's greatest avant-garde artists and intellectuals. Charting the whole of Sun Ra's life and career, Szwed outlines how after years in Chicago as a blues and swing band pianist, Sun Ra set out in the 1950s to impart his views about the galaxy, black people, and spiritual matters by performing music with the Arkestra that was as vital and innovative as it was mercurial and confounding. Szwed's readers—whether they are just discovering Sun Ra or are among the legion of poets, artists, intellectuals, and musicians who consider him a spiritual godfather—will find that, indeed, space is the place.
Book Synopsis Satanás y Demonismo by : R. B. Thieme, Jr.
Download or read book Satanás y Demonismo written by R. B. Thieme, Jr. and published by R. B. Thieme, Jr., Bible Ministries . This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antes del comienzo de la historia humana, Satanás y sus ángeles instigaron un conflicto en el ámbito espiritual que continúa hasta este mismo momento. El drama se enfurece a través de las páginas de la Biblia desde Génesis hasta Apocalipsis. La humanidad fue creada para resolver este antiguo conflicto, pero Satanás y las hordas de demonios no vistos que él comanda no sufrirán derrota sin una lucha intensa. Una táctica que Satanás emplea son las variadas facetas de actividad de demonios. El demonismo ciega a los no creyentes al Evangelio, distrae a los creyentes de la vida espiritual y amenaza a la nación con el juicio divino. Aquellos que son ignorantes o están confundidos acerca de las estrategias sutiles de Satanás llegan a ser una presa fácil. La Biblia advierte de forma enfática a los creyentes contra cortejar o confratenizar con cualquier forma de demonismo. Surgen preguntas críticas una y otra vez: ¿Cómo llegan a enredarse las personas en el demonismo? ¿Qué es la influencia de demonios? ¿Quién puede ser poseído por demonios? ¿Es válido el exorcismo? ¿Cómo puede protegerse el creyente a sí mismo de lo demoníaco? Sólo la Biblia puede responder estas preguntas y eliminar la confusión.

Book Synopsis Lovesickness in the Middle Ages by : Mary Frances Wack
Download or read book Lovesickness in the Middle Ages written by Mary Frances Wack and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to medieval physicians, lovesickness was an illness of mind and body caused by sexual desire and the sight of beauty. The notorious agony of an unhappy lover was treated as an ailment closely related to melancholia and potentially fatal if not treated. In Lovesickness in the Middle Ages, Mary F. Wack uses newly discovered texts and takes a fresh look at primary sources to offer the first comprehensive analysis of the forms and meanings of the lover's malady in medieval culture. She examines its importance in medieval literature and its role in the transformation of courtly love from literary convention to social practice. Drawing extensively from the Viaticum and its commentaries, studied for centuries in medical schools, Wack also addresses wider questions about the cultural construction of illness, the conflict between medicine and Church morality, the relations between lovesickness and gender, and the lover's malady as a form of behavior in late medieval society. The second part of the book contains annotated editions and translations of six important texts on lovesickness—the Viaticum and four commentaries on it. Forty-six black-and-white illustrations provide a striking visual perspective on medieval love and medicine. Lovesickness in the Middle Ages will interest literary scholars and students as well as historians of medicine, sexuality, psychology, and women's studies.
